Langfuse Core Workflow A: Tracing LLM Calls
Overview
End-to-end tracing of LLM calls, chains, and agents. Covers the OpenAI drop-in wrapper, manual tracing with startActiveObservation, RAG pipeline instrumentation, streaming response tracking, and LangChain integration.
Prerequisites
Completed langfuse-install-auth setup
OpenAI SDK installed (npm install openai)
For v4+: @langfuse/openai, @langfuse/tracing, @langfuse/otel, @opentelemetry/sdk-node
Instructions
Step 1: OpenAI Drop-In Wrapper (Zero-Code Tracing)
import OpenAI from "openai" ;
import { observeOpenAI } from "@langfuse/openai" ;
const openai = observeOpenAI (new OpenAI ());
const response = await openai.chat .completions .create ({
model : "gpt-4o" ,
messages : [
{ role : "system" , content : "You are a helpful assistant." },
{ role : "user" , content : "What is Langfuse?" },
],
});
const res = await observeOpenAI (new OpenAI (), {
generationName
"product-description"
generationMetadata
feature
"onboarding"
sessionId
"session-abc"
userId
"user-123"
tags
"production"
"onboarding"
chat
completions
create
model
"gpt-4o-mini"
messages
role
"user"
content
"Describe this product"
Step 2: Manual Tracing -- RAG Pipeline (v4+ SDK) import { startActiveObservation, updateActiveObservation } from "@langfuse/tracing" ;
async function ragPipeline (query : string return await startActiveObservation ("rag-pipeline" , async () => {
updateActiveObservation ({ input : { query }, metadata : { pipeline : "rag-v2" } });
const embedding = await startActiveObservation ("embed-query" , async () => {
updateActiveObservation ({ input : { text : query } });
const vector = await embedText (query);
updateActiveObservation ({
output : { dimensions : vector.length },
metadata : { model : "text-embedding-3-small" },
});
return vector;
});
const documents = await startActiveObservation ("vector-search" , async () => {
updateActiveObservation ({ input : { dimensions : embedding.length } });
const docs = await searchVectorDB (embedding);
updateActiveObservation ({
output : { documentCount : docs.length , topScore : docs[0 ]?.score },
});
return docs;
});
const answer = await startActiveObservation (
{ name : "generate-answer" , asType : "generation" },
async () => {
updateActiveObservation ({
model : "gpt-4o" ,
input : { query, context : documents.map ((d ) => d.content ) },
});
const result = await generateAnswer (query, documents);
updateActiveObservation ({
output : result.content ,
usage : {
promptTokens : result.usage .prompt_tokens ,
completionTokens : result.usage .completion_tokens ,
},
});
return result.content ;
}
);
updateActiveObservation ({ output : { answer } });
return answer;
});
}
Step 3: Manual Tracing -- RAG Pipeline (v3 Legacy) import { Langfuse } from "langfuse" ;
const langfuse = new Langfuse ();
async function ragPipeline (query : string const trace = langfuse.trace ({
name : "rag-pipeline" ,
input : { query },
metadata : { pipeline : "rag-v1" },
});
const embedSpan = trace.span ({ name : "embed-query" , input : { text : query } });
const embedding = await embedText (query);
embedSpan.end ({ output : { dimensions : embedding.length } });
const searchSpan = trace.span ({ name : "vector-search" });
const documents = await searchVectorDB (embedding);
searchSpan.end ({ output : { count : documents.length , topScore : documents[0 ]?.score } });
const generation = trace.generation ({
name : "generate-answer" ,
model : "gpt-4o" ,
modelParameters : { temperature : 0.7 , maxTokens : 500 },
input : { query, context : documents.map ((d ) => d.content ) },
});
const answer = await generateAnswer (query, documents);
generation.end ({
output : answer.content ,
usage : {
promptTokens : answer.usage .prompt_tokens ,
completionTokens : answer.usage .completion_tokens ,
totalTokens : answer.usage .total_tokens ,
},
});
trace.update ({ output : { answer : answer.content } });
await langfuse.flushAsync ();
return answer.content ;
}
Step 4: Streaming Response Tracking import OpenAI from "openai" ;
import { observeOpenAI } from "@langfuse/openai" ;
const openai = observeOpenAI (new OpenAI ());
const stream = await openai.chat .completions .create ({
model : "gpt-4o" ,
messages : [{ role : "user" , content : "Tell me a story" }],
stream : true ,
stream_options : { include_usage : true },
});
let fullContent = "" ;
for await (const chunk of stream) {
const content = chunk.choices [0 ]?.delta ?.content || "" ;
fullContent += content;
process.stdout .write (content);
}
Step 5: Anthropic Claude Tracing (Manual) import Anthropic from "@anthropic-ai/sdk" ;
import { startActiveObservation, updateActiveObservation } from "@langfuse/tracing" ;
const anthropic = new Anthropic ();
async function callClaude (prompt : string return await startActiveObservation (
{ name : "claude-call" , asType : "generation" },
async () => {
updateActiveObservation ({
model : "claude-sonnet-4-20250514" ,
input : [{ role : "user" , content : prompt }],
});
const response = await anthropic.messages .create ({
model : "claude-sonnet-4-20250514" ,
max_tokens : 1024 ,
messages : [{ role : "user" , content : prompt }],
});
updateActiveObservation ({
output : response.content [0 ].text ,
usage : {
promptTokens : response.usage .input_tokens ,
completionTokens : response.usage .output_tokens ,
},
});
return response.content [0 ].text ;
}
);
}
Step 6: LangChain Integration (Python) from langfuse.callback import CallbackHandler
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from langchain_core.prompts import ChatPromptTemplate
langfuse_handler = CallbackHandler()
llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o" )
prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.from_messages([
("system" , "You are a helpful assistant." ),
("human" , "{input}" ),
])
chain = prompt | llm
result = chain.invoke(
{"input" : "What is Langfuse?" },
config={"callbacks" : [langfuse_handler]},
)
Error Handling Issue Cause Solution Missing generations OpenAI wrapper not applied Use observeOpenAI() from @langfuse/openai Orphaned spans Missing end or callback finish Use startActiveObservation (auto-ends) or .end() in finally No token usage on stream Stream usage not requested Add stream_options: { include_usage: true } Flat trace (no nesting) Missing OTel context Ensure NodeSDK is started with LangfuseSpanProcessor
