Logging

Log Proxy input, output, and exceptions using:

  • Langfuse
  • OpenTelemetry
  • GCS, s3, Azure (Blob) Buckets
  • Custom Callbacks
  • Langsmith
  • DataDog
  • DynamoDB
  • etc.

Getting the LiteLLM Call ID

LiteLLM generates a unique call_id for each request. This call_id can be used to track the request across the system. This can be very useful for finding the info for a particular request in a logging system like one of the systems mentioned in this page.

curl -i -sSL --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "what llm are you"}]
}' | grep 'x-litellm'

The output of this is:

x-litellm-call-id: b980db26-9512-45cc-b1da-c511a363b83f
x-litellm-model-id: cb41bc03f4c33d310019bae8c5afdb1af0a8f97b36a234405a9807614988457c
x-litellm-model-api-base: https://x-example-1234.openai.azure.com
x-litellm-version: 1.40.21
x-litellm-response-cost: 2.85e-05
x-litellm-key-tpm-limit: None
x-litellm-key-rpm-limit: None

A number of these headers could be useful for troubleshooting, but the x-litellm-call-id is the one that is most useful for tracking a request across components in your system, including in logging tools.

Logging Features

Conditional Logging by Virtual Keys, Teams

Use this to:

  1. Conditionally enable logging for some virtual keys/teams
  2. Set different logging providers for different virtual keys/teams

👉 Get Started - Team/Key Based Logging

Redacting UserAPIKeyInfo

Redact information about the user api key (hashed token, user_id, team id, etc.), from logs.

Currently supported for Langfuse, OpenTelemetry, Logfire, ArizeAI logging.

litellm_settings: 
callbacks: ["langfuse"]
redact_user_api_key_info: true

Redact Messages, Response Content

Set litellm.turn_off_message_logging=True This will prevent the messages and responses from being logged to your logging provider, but request metadata will still be logged.

Example config.yaml

model_list:
- model_name: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_params:
model: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_settings:
success_callback: ["langfuse"]
turn_off_message_logging: True # 👈 Key Change

If you have this feature turned on, you can override it for specific requests by setting a request header LiteLLM-Disable-Message-Redaction: true.

curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'LiteLLM-Disable-Message-Redaction: true' \
--data '{
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "what llm are you"
}
]
}'

Removes any field with user_api_key_* from metadata.

What gets logged?

Found under kwargs["standard_logging_object"]. This is a standard payload, logged for every response.

👉 Standard Logging Payload Specification

Langfuse

We will use the --config to set litellm.success_callback = ["langfuse"] this will log all successfull LLM calls to langfuse. Make sure to set LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY and LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY in your environment

Step 1 Install langfuse

pip install langfuse>=2.0.0

Step 2: Create a config.yaml file and set litellm_settings: success_callback

model_list:
- model_name: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_params:
model: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_settings:
success_callback: ["langfuse"]

Step 3: Set required env variables for logging to langfuse

export LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY="pk_kk"
export LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY="sk_ss"
# Optional, defaults to https://cloud.langfuse.com
export LANGFUSE_HOST="https://xxx.langfuse.com"

Step 4: Start the proxy, make a test request

Start proxy

litellm --config config.yaml --debug

Test Request

litellm --test

Expected output on Langfuse

Logging Metadata to Langfuse

Pass metadata as part of the request body

curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "what llm are you"
}
],
"metadata": {
"generation_name": "ishaan-test-generation",
"generation_id": "gen-id22",
"trace_id": "trace-id22",
"trace_user_id": "user-id2"
}
}'

LiteLLM Tags - cache_hit, cache_key

Use this if you want to control which LiteLLM-specific fields are logged as tags by the LiteLLM proxy. By default LiteLLM Proxy logs no LiteLLM-specific fields

LiteLLM specific fieldDescriptionExample Value
cache_hitIndicates whether a cache hit occured (True) or not (False)true, false
cache_keyThe Cache key used for this requestd2b758c****
proxy_base_urlThe base URL for the proxy server, the value of env var PROXY_BASE_URL on your serverhttps://proxy.example.com
user_api_key_aliasAn alias for the LiteLLM Virtual Key.prod-app1
user_api_key_user_idThe unique ID associated with a user's API key.user_123, user_456
user_api_key_user_emailThe email associated with a user's API key.user@example.com, admin@example.com
user_api_key_team_aliasAn alias for a team associated with an API key.team_alpha, dev_team

Usage

Specify langfuse_default_tags to control what litellm fields get logged on Langfuse

Example config.yaml

model_list:
- model_name: gpt-4
litellm_params:
model: openai/fake
api_key: fake-key
api_base: https://exampleopenaiendpoint-production.up.railway.app/

litellm_settings:
success_callback: ["langfuse"]

# 👇 Key Change
langfuse_default_tags: ["cache_hit", "cache_key", "proxy_base_url", "user_api_key_alias", "user_api_key_user_id", "user_api_key_user_email", "user_api_key_team_alias", "semantic-similarity", "proxy_base_url"]

View POST sent from LiteLLM to provider

Use this when you want to view the RAW curl request sent from LiteLLM to the LLM API

Pass metadata as part of the request body

curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "what llm are you"
}
],
"metadata": {
"log_raw_request": true
}
}'

Expected Output on Langfuse

You will see raw_request in your Langfuse Metadata. This is the RAW CURL command sent from LiteLLM to your LLM API provider

OpenTelemetry

Traceparent Header

Context propagation across Services Traceparent HTTP Header

❓ Use this when you want to pass information about the incoming request in a distributed tracing system

✅ Key change: Pass the traceparent header in your requests. Read more about traceparent headers here

traceparent: 00-80e1afed08e019fc1110464cfa66635c-7a085853722dc6d2-01

Example Usage

  1. Make Request to LiteLLM Proxy with traceparent header
import openai
import uuid

client = openai.OpenAI(api_key="sk-1234", base_url="http://0.0.0.0:4000")
example_traceparent = f"00-80e1afed08e019fc1110464cfa66635c-02e80198930058d4-01"
extra_headers = {
"traceparent": example_traceparent
}
_trace_id = example_traceparent.split("-")[1]

print("EXTRA HEADERS: ", extra_headers)
print("Trace ID: ", _trace_id)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="llama3",
messages=[
{"role": "user", "content": "this is a test request, write a short poem"}
],
extra_headers=extra_headers,
)

print(response)
# EXTRA HEADERS:  {'traceparent': '00-80e1afed08e019fc1110464cfa66635c-02e80198930058d4-01'}
# Trace ID: 80e1afed08e019fc1110464cfa66635c
  1. Lookup Trace ID on OTEL Logger

Search for Trace=80e1afed08e019fc1110464cfa66635c on your OTEL Collector

Forwarding Traceparent HTTP Header to LLM APIs

Use this if you want to forward the traceparent headers to your self hosted LLMs like vLLM

Set forward_traceparent_to_llm_provider: True in your config.yaml. This will forward the traceparent header to your LLM API

danger

Only use this for self hosted LLMs, this can cause Bedrock, VertexAI calls to fail

litellm_settings:
forward_traceparent_to_llm_provider: True

Custom Callback Class [Async]

Use this when you want to run custom callbacks in python

Step 1 - Create your custom litellm callback class

We use litellm.integrations.custom_logger for this, more details about litellm custom callbacks here

Define your custom callback class in a python file.

Here's an example custom logger for tracking key, user, model, prompt, response, tokens, cost. We create a file called custom_callbacks.py and initialize proxy_handler_instance

from litellm.integrations.custom_logger import CustomLogger
import litellm

# This file includes the custom callbacks for LiteLLM Proxy
# Once defined, these can be passed in proxy_config.yaml
class MyCustomHandler(CustomLogger):
def log_pre_api_call(self, model, messages, kwargs):
print(f"Pre-API Call")

def log_post_api_call(self, kwargs, response_obj, start_time, end_time):
print(f"Post-API Call")

def log_stream_event(self, kwargs, response_obj, start_time, end_time):
print(f"On Stream")

def log_success_event(self, kwargs, response_obj, start_time, end_time):
print("On Success")

def log_failure_event(self, kwargs, response_obj, start_time, end_time):
print(f"On Failure")

async def async_log_success_event(self, kwargs, response_obj, start_time, end_time):

# Access litellm_params passed to litellm.completion(), example access `metadata`
litellm_params = kwargs.get("litellm_params", {})
metadata = litellm_params.get("metadata", {}) # headers passed to LiteLLM proxy, can be found here

# Calculate cost using litellm.completion_cost()
cost = litellm.completion_cost(completion_response=response_obj)
response = response_obj
# tokens used in response
usage = response_obj["usage"]

proxy_handler_instance = MyCustomHandler()

# Set litellm.callbacks = [proxy_handler_instance] on the proxy
# need to set litellm.callbacks = [proxy_handler_instance] # on the proxy

Step 2 - Pass your custom callback class in config.yaml

We pass the custom callback class defined in Step1 to the config.yaml. Set callbacks to python_filename.logger_instance_name

In the config below, we pass

  • python_filename: custom_callbacks.py
  • logger_instance_name: proxy_handler_instance. This is defined in Step 1

callbacks: custom_callbacks.proxy_handler_instance

model_list:
- model_name: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_params:
model: gpt-3.5-turbo

litellm_settings:
callbacks: custom_callbacks.proxy_handler_instance # sets litellm.callbacks = [proxy_handler_instance]

Step 3 - Start proxy + test request

litellm --config proxy_config.yaml
curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
--data ' {

Logging Proxy Request Object, Header, Url

Here's how you can access the url, headers, request body sent to the proxy for each request

class MyCustomHandler(CustomLogger):
async def async_log_success_event(self, kwargs, response_obj, start_time, end_time):
print(f"On Async Success!")

litellm_params = kwargs.get("litellm_params", None)
proxy_server_request = litellm_params.get("proxy_server_request")
print(proxy_server_request)

Expected Output

{
"url": "http://testserver/chat/completions",
"method": "POST",
"headers": {
"host": "testserver",
"accept": "*/*",
"accept-encoding": "gzip, deflate",
"connection": "keep-alive",
"user-agent": "testclient",
"authorization": "Bearer None",
"content-length": "105",
"content-type": "application/json"
},
"body": {
"model": "Azure OpenAI GPT-4 Canada",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "hi"
}
],
"max_tokens": 10
}
}

Logging model_info set in config.yaml

Here is how to log the model_info set in your proxy config.yaml. Information on setting model_info on config.yaml

class MyCustomHandler(CustomLogger):
async def async_log_success_event(self, kwargs, response_obj, start_time, end_time):
print(f"On Async Success!")

litellm_params = kwargs.get("litellm_params", None)
model_info = litellm_params.get("model_info")
print(model_info)

Expected Output

{'mode': 'embedding', 'input_cost_per_token': 0.002}
Logging responses from proxy

Both /chat/completions and /embeddings responses are available as response_obj

Note: for /chat/completions, both stream=True and non stream responses are available as response_obj

class MyCustomHandler(CustomLogger):
async def async_log_success_event(self, kwargs, response_obj, start_time, end_time):

Custom Callback APIs [Async]

info

This is an Enterprise only feature Get Started with Enterprise here

Use this if you:

  • Want to use custom callbacks written in a non Python programming language
  • Want your callbacks to run on a different microservice

Step 1. Create your generic logging API endpoint

Set up a generic API endpoint that can receive data in JSON format. The data will be included within a "data" field.

Your server should support the following Request format:

curl --location https://your-domain.com/log-event \
--request POST \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{
"data": {
"id": "chatcmpl-8sgE89cEQ4q9biRtxMvDfQU1O82PT",
"call_type": "acompletion",
"cache_hit": "None",
"startTime": "2024-02-15 16:18:44.336280",
"endTime": "2024-02-15 16:18:45.045539",
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"user": "ishaan-2",
"modelParameters": "{'temperature': 0.7, 'max_tokens': 10, 'user': 'ishaan-2', 'extra_body': {}}",
"messages": "[{'role': 'user', 'content': 'This is a test'}]",
"response": "ModelResponse(id='chatcmpl-8sgE89cEQ4q9biRtxMvDfQU1O82PT', choices=[Choices(finish_reason='length', index=0, message=Message(content='Great! How can I assist you with this test', role='assistant'))], created=1708042724, model='gpt-3.5-turbo-0613', object='chat.completion', system_fingerprint=None, usage=Usage(completion_tokens=10, prompt_tokens=11, total_tokens=21))",
"usage": "Usage(completion_tokens=10, prompt_tokens=11, total_tokens=21)",
"metadata": "{}",
"cost": "3.65e-05"
}
}'

Reference FastAPI Python Server

Here's a reference FastAPI Server that is compatible with LiteLLM Proxy:

# this is an example endpoint to receive data from litellm
from fastapi import FastAPI, HTTPException, Request

app = FastAPI()


@app.post("/log-event")
async def log_event(request: Request):
try:
print("Received /log-event request")
# Assuming the incoming request has JSON data
data = await request.json()
print("Received request data:")
print(data)

# Your additional logic can go here
# For now, just printing the received data

return {"message": "Request received successfully"}
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error processing request: {str(e)}")
import traceback

traceback.print_exc()
raise HTTPException(status_code=500, detail="Internal Server Error")


if __name__ == "__main__":
import uvicorn
uvicorn.run(app, host="127.0.0.1", port=4000)

Step 2. Set your GENERIC_LOGGER_ENDPOINT to the endpoint + route we should send callback logs to

os.environ["GENERIC_LOGGER_ENDPOINT"] = "http://localhost:4000/log-event"

Step 3. Create a config.yaml file and set litellm_settings: success_callback = ["generic"]

Example litellm proxy config.yaml

model_list:
- model_name: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_params:
model: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_settings:
success_callback: ["generic"]

Start the LiteLLM Proxy and make a test request to verify the logs reached your callback API

Langsmith

  1. Set success_callback: ["langsmith"] on litellm config.yaml

If you're using a custom LangSmith instance, you can set the LANGSMITH_BASE_URL environment variable to point to your instance.

litellm_settings:
success_callback: ["langsmith"]

environment_variables:
LANGSMITH_API_KEY: "lsv2_pt_xxxxxxxx"
LANGSMITH_PROJECT: "litellm-proxy"

LANGSMITH_BASE_URL: "https://api.smith.langchain.com" # (Optional - only needed if you have a custom Langsmith instance)
  1. Start Proxy
litellm --config /path/to/config.yaml
  1. Test it!
curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data ' {
"model": "fake-openai-endpoint",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "Hello, Claude gm!"
}
],
}
'

Expect to see your log on Langfuse

Sentry

If api calls fail (llm/database) you can log those to Sentry:

Step 1 Install Sentry

pip install --upgrade sentry-sdk

Step 2: Save your Sentry_DSN and add litellm_settings: failure_callback

export SENTRY_DSN="your-sentry-dsn"
model_list:
- model_name: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_params:
model: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_settings:
# other settings
failure_callback: ["sentry"]
general_settings:
database_url: "my-bad-url" # set a fake url to trigger a sentry exception

Step 3: Start the proxy, make a test request

Start proxy

litellm --config config.yaml --debug

Test Request

litellm --test

Athina

Athina allows you to log LLM Input/Output for monitoring, analytics, and observability.

We will use the --config to set litellm.success_callback = ["athina"] this will log all successfull LLM calls to athina

Step 1 Set Athina API key

ATHINA_API_KEY = "your-athina-api-key"

Step 2: Create a config.yaml file and set litellm_settings: success_callback

model_list:
- model_name: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_params:
model: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_settings:
success_callback: ["athina"]

Step 3: Start the proxy, make a test request

Start proxy

litellm --config config.yaml --debug
