Methods

to_dict()

Convert the trace to a dictionary.

trace_dict = trace.to_dict()

Returns: dict

from_dict()

Create a trace from a dictionary.

trace = Trace.from_dict(data)

Parameters:

• data (dict): Dictionary containing trace data

Returns: Trace

Usage

from agno.db.sqlite import SqliteDb

db = SqliteDb(db_file="tmp/traces.db")

# Get a trace
trace = db.get_trace(run_id=response.run_id)

if trace:
    print(f"Trace ID: {trace.trace_id}")
    print(f"Name: {trace.name}")
    print(f"Duration: {trace.duration_ms}ms")
    print(f"Status: {trace.status}")
    print(f"Total Spans: {trace.total_spans}")
    print(f"Errors: {trace.error_count}")
