OpenTelemetry Comes to IntelliJ IDEA, GoLand, PyCharm, and WebStorm - The JetBrains Blog
Blog post from JetBrains
JetBrains has expanded its OpenTelemetry plugin beyond Rider to IntelliJ IDEA, GoLand, PyCharm, and WebStorm in the 2026.2 release, allowing developers to inspect local application logs, metrics, traces, and service maps directly within supported IDEs without deploying a separate observability backend. Designed for development and testing rather than replacing debuggers, profilers, or production monitoring platforms, the plugin helps users investigate errors, trace request paths across services and dependencies, identify latency issues, and validate emitted telemetry before release. It works with already instrumented Java, Python, Go, and .NET applications by directing their OTLP exports to a built-in receiver, and it can also integrate with existing local OpenTelemetry Collector pipelines. The plugin includes searchable logs, metric charts, span-level trace inspection, and service maps generated from observed traffic, while experimental MCP support enables compatible coding agents to query telemetry data and service relationships through the JetBrains MCP server.
