Hi,

Currently we have this topology in our application we’re trying to get complete end-to-end traces from our AWS infrastructure.

We have installed agentless OneAgent in our Amazon CloudFront (1) from the external to trigger our lambda function however we’re not getting tracess from API Gateway (2), which is understandably.

Since we cannot install OneAgent in the CDN before coming to firewall, we’re thinking on setting up with OpenTelemetry ([Trace AWS Lambda .NET Core functions with OpenTelemetry .NET — Dynatrace Docs](https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/setup-and-configuration/setup-on-cloud-platforms/amazon-web-services/amazon-web-services-integrations/aws-lambda-integration/aws-lambda-otel-integration/lambda-otel-native))

Will this provide end-to-end traces as intended (including to the API Gateway)?

I got a sense this is just like exporting AWS X-Ray telemetry data (which we can inspect API gateway traces) into Dynatrace.

You ever figure this out?&nbsp; We are struggling to get distributed tracing working through the API Gateway ourselves.

Well, that’s disheartening.&nbsp; Thanks for responding though!
