The instrumentation is added by using a variety of technologies according to the stack that is available. For example, for a servlet web application, we use a <code class="literal">Filter</code>, and, for Spring Integration, we use <code class="literal">ChannelInterceptors</code>.</p><p>You can customize the keys used in span tags.
To limit the volume of span data, an HTTP request is, by default, tagged only with a handful of metadata, such as the status code, the host, and the URL.
You can add request headers by configuring <code class="literal">spring.sleuth.keys.http.headers</code> (a list of header names).</p><div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><table border="0" summary="Note"><tr><td rowspan="2" align="center" valign="top" width="25"><img alt="[Note]" src="images/note.png"></td><th align="left">Note</th></tr><tr><td align="left" valign="top"><p>Tags are collected and exported only if there is a <code class="literal">Sampler</code> that allows it.
