### Improved Log Store Analytics
**Volume Charts:** New mini-charts display request volume patterns over time directly in the sessions table, providing instant visibility into traffic trends and activity levels without needing to drill into individual sessions.
## Core Platform
### Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
1. **Two-Tier Permission Structure:**
Granular permission management with organization and project-level controls. Organization Admins have full control across the entire organization, while Project Admins maintain complete control within specific projects. This creates clear boundaries between teams and prevents data leakage between business units.
2. **Enhanced API Key Security:**
Project-specific API key scoping ensures that teams can only access data within their designated projects. This provides better security isolation and compliance with industry regulations, especially critical for organizations in financial services, healthcare, and insurance.
3. **Flexible Team Management:**
Easy onboarding and role transitions with transparent permission hierarchy. Delegate administrative responsibilities without compromising security, and manage team member access as organizations evolve.
4. **Seamless Migration Process:**
Existing customers can migrate to RBAC with minimal disruption. All current users are automatically assigned Organization Admin roles, and project-specific API keys are available in Settings. Legacy API keys will remain functional until August 31st, 2025.

# Key Concepts
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/concepts
The key concepts behind the HoneyHive Platform
HoneyHive's abstractions have been designed for maximal extensibility & reusability. All concepts are minimally opinionated.
### Project
Everything in HoneyHive is organized by projects. A project is a logically-separated workspace to develop, evaluate, and monitor a specific AI agent or an end-to-end application leveraging one or multiple agents.
### Sessions & Events
**Event:** An `event` tracks the execution of different parts of your application along with related metadata, user feedback and so on. This is synonymous with a single span in a trace.
**Session:** A `session` is a collection of events that are related to a single user interaction with your application, typically incorporating multiple turns. Sessions can be used to trace a single agent execution or the end-to-end user session, depending on your configuration.
Full details on events and the specific properties they track can be found in the [Schema Overview](/schema-overview).
### Experiment Run
An experiment run is a collection of sessions that track the execution of your end-to-end application (or a single agent) based on a common `run_id` on `metadata`.
In our interface, we summarize the `metrics` present on the session & all its children. Presenting an interface as shown below:
In this interface, you can apply different aggregation functions over the metrics, filter for particular sessions, and step into the trace view for each run.
Two evaluation runs can compare sessions/events against each other when they have a common `datapoint_id` on `metadata`.
### Configuration
A configuration is a generic set of parameters that define the behavior of any component in your application - be that the model, a sub-component, or the application itself.
### Prompt
A prompt is an opinionated configuration for your agent. It includes the model name, provider, prompt template, and any other hyperparameters (including functions/tools associated with your template). HoneyHive allows you to manage prompt configurations within the UI and integrate them into your code. Learn more [here](/prompts/deploy).
### Datapoint
A datapoint is a set of input-output pairs (along with any metadata) pertaining to your end-to-end application or a specific agent within your application.
Each datapoint has a unique `datapoint_id` that can be used to track it across different sessions, evaluation runs, and comparisons.
They are also linked to the events that generated them, so you can always trace back to the original data.
### Dataset
A dataset is a collection of datapoints that can be used to run evals, fine-tune custom models, or however you see fit.
Datasets can be exported and used programmatically in your CI or fine-tuning pipelines. Learn more [here](/datasets/introduction).
### Evaluator
An evaluator is a function ([Python](/evaluators/python) or [LLM-as-a-judge](/evaluators/llm)) that runs over an event to evaluate the performance of your application.
We support both client-side and server-side execution, so you can decide to run the evaluation on your own infrastructure or use our managed service. Learn more [here](/evaluators/introduction).
# Curate from traces
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/datasets/dataset-curation
Curating a dataset of inputs & outputs from your traces
**Expected time:** 1-2 minutes
You can curate datasets for your overall session, completions or any particular step of your pipeline.
In the following example, we will do so for the overall session. You can simply add a filter for `event_name` or go to the `Completions` tab to curate model requests.
**Steps:**
# Export datasets via SDK
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/datasets/export
How to programmatically export datasets in HoneyHive.
We allow exporting all datasets via our SDKs. This allows you to use your datasets for:
* **Evaluation:** Run ad-hoc experiments or continuous integrations tests against a reference dataset
* **Fine-Tuning:** Use datasets for fine-tuning and validating your custom model
**Prerequisites:**
* Get your API key & project ID [by following the steps detailed here](/sdk-reference/authentication).
**Expected time:** few minutes
```python Python theme={null}
import honeyhive
s = honeyhive.HoneyHive(
bearer_auth="HONEYHIVE_API_KEY",
server_url="HONEYHIVE_SERVER_URL" # Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
)
datapoints = []
res = s.datapoints.get_datapoints(project='PROJECT_NAME', dataset_name='DATASET_NAME')
if res.object is not None:
datapoints = res.object.datapoints
pass
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
import { HoneyHive } from "honeyhive";
async function run() {
const sdk = new HoneyHive({
bearerAuth: "HONEYHIVE_API_KEY",
serverURL: "HONEYHIVE_SERVER_URL" // Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
});
const project: string = "PROJECT_NAME";
const datasetName: string = "DATASET_NAME";
let datapoints = [];
const res = await sdk.datapoints.getDatapoints(project, datapointIds, datasetName);
if (res.statusCode == 200) {
// handle response
datapoints = res.object.datapoints;
}
}
run();
```
# Import from Hugging Face
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/datasets/hf-datasets
How to import datasets from HuggingFace Datasets to HoneyHive.
Since HoneyHive's datasets don't follow a fixed schema format, we have an automatic integration with HuggingFace datasets (or any kind of dataset management tool) to import datasets into HoneyHive.
## Upload a dataset through the SDK
On a high level, all we need to do is
* define our mapping of inputs-outputs
* importing batch size to setup the integration.
We recommend importing the data in batches of 100 rows at a time.
**Prerequisites**
* You have already created a project in HoneyHive, as explained [here](/workspace/projects).
* You have an API key for your project, as explained [here](/sdk-reference/authentication).
**Expected time:** few minutes
To install our SDK, run the following commands in the shell.
```shell Python theme={null}
pip install honeyhive datasets
```
To authenticate your SDK, you need to pass your API key.
```python Python theme={null}
import honeyhive
from honeyhive.models import components, operations
from datasets import load_dataset
hhai = honeyhive.HoneyHive(
bearer_auth='YOUR_API_KEY',
server_url='HONEYHIVE_SERVER_URL' # Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
)
```
Give your new dataset a name and pass the project name to which you want to associate the dataset.
Keep the generated `dataset_id` handy for future reference.
```python Python theme={null}
eval_dataset = hhai.datasets.create_dataset(request=components.CreateDatasetRequest(
project='YOUR_PROJECT_NAME',
name='DATASET_NAME',
))
dataset_id = eval_dataset.object.result.inserted_id
```
Now, using the `dataset_id`, you can pass your data list and provide a mapping to the fields.
We'll create unique datapoints for each entry in the JSON list. The `datapoint_id` on those entries will be used for joining traces in experiment runs in the future.
Any field not defined in the mapping is set on the `metadata` of the datapoint.
```python Python theme={null}
dataset = load_dataset("lhoestq/demo1")
dataset = list(dataset['train']) # turn the dataset into a list of dictionaries
datapoint_ids = []
for i in range(0, len(dataset), 100):
dataset_request = operations.AddDatapointsRequestBody(
project = 'YOUR_PROJECT_NAME',
data = dataset[i:i+100], # list of dictionaries
mapping = operations.Mapping(
inputs=[
'review', # input fields
],
ground_truth=[],
history=[]
),
)
datapoints = hhai.datasets.add_datapoints(
dataset_id = dataset_id, # dataset_id from the previous step
request_body = dataset_request
)
datapoint_ids.append(datapoints.object.datapoint_ids)
```
You have successfully uploaded your HuggingFace dataset to HoneyHive using the SDK.
You can now view your dataset in the HoneyHive UI.
## Next steps
Learn how to run experiments on your dataset.
# Upload datasets
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/datasets/import
How to upload a dataset in HoneyHive
We support uploading datasets to HoneyHive both through the UI and the SDK.
## Upload a dataset through the UI
We currently support `JSON`, `JSONL` and `CSV` file uploads in HoneyHive.
Here's an example `JSONL` file that you can upload:
```json theme={null}
{ "user_query": "What's the history of AI?", "response": "The history of AI is a long one." }
{ "user_query": "What is AI?", "response": "AI is the simulation of human intelligence in machines." }
{ "user_query": "What is the future of AI?", "response": "The future of AI is bright." }
{ "user_query": "How can I build AI?", "response": "You can build AI by learning the basics of programming." }
{ "user_query": "How does AI work?", "response": "AI works by learning from data." }
```
Here's an example `CSV` file that you can upload:
```csv theme={null}
user_query,response
What's the history of AI?,The history of AI is a long one.
What is AI?,AI is the simulation of human intelligence in machines.
What is the future of AI?,The future of AI is bright.
How can I build AI?,You can build AI by learning the basics of programming.
How does AI work?,AI works by learning from data.
```
In the below tutorial, we will use the `JSON` file format.
**Expected time:** few minutes
**Steps:**
We will use a file called `AI_bot_queries.json` with the content as shown above.
Follow the steps after to upload & view your dataset:
## Upload a dataset through the SDK
Both our TypeScript and Python SDKs have been designed to ingest completely custom JSON lists.
All you need to do is to define which fields in each row map to inputs, ground truth, conversation history. All other fields are placed in metadata.
**Prerequisites**
* You have already created a project in HoneyHive, as explained [here](/workspace/projects).
* You have an API key for your project, as explained [here](/sdk-reference/authentication).
**Expected time:** few minutes
To install our SDKs, run the following commands in the shell.
```shell Python theme={null}
pip install honeyhive
```
```shell TypeScript theme={null}
npm install honeyhive
```
To authenticate your SDK, you need to pass your API key.
```python Python theme={null}
import honeyhive
from honeyhive.models import components, operations
hhai = honeyhive.HoneyHive(bearer_auth='YOUR_API_KEY')
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
import { HoneyHive } from "honeyhive";
const hhai = new HoneyHive({
bearerAuth: "YOUR_API_KEY",
});
```
Give your new dataset a name and pass the project name to which you want to associate the dataset.
Keep the generated `dataset_id` handy for future reference.
```python Python theme={null}
eval_dataset = hhai.datasets.create_dataset(request=components.CreateDatasetRequest(
project='YOUR_PROJECT_NAME',
name='DATASET_NAME',
))
dataset_id = eval_dataset.object.result.inserted_id
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
const evalDataset = await sdk.datasets.createDataset({
project: "YOUR_PROJECT_NAME",
name: "DATASET_NAME",
})
const datasetId = evalDataset.result.insertedId;
```
Now, using the `dataset_id`, you can pass your data list and provide a mapping to the fields.
We'll create unique datapoints for each entry in the JSON list. The `datapoint_id` on those entries will be used for joining traces in experiment runs in the future.
Any field not defined in the mapping is set on the `metadata` of the datapoint.
```python Python theme={null}
dataset = [
{"question": "how do i make lightweight tables?"},
{"question": "how do i make lightweight modals?"},
{"question": "how do i make lightweight wireframes?"},
]
dataset_request = operations.AddDatapointsRequestBody(
project = 'YOUR_PROJECT_NAME',
data = dataset, # list of dictionaries
mapping = operations.Mapping(
inputs=[
'question', # input fields
],
ground_truth=[],
history=[]
),
)
datapoints = hhai.datasets.add_datapoints(
dataset_id = dataset_id, # dataset_id from the previous step
request_body = dataset_request
)
datapoint_ids = datapoints.object.datapoint_ids
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
var dataset: Array[any] = [
{"question": "how do i make lightweight tables?"},
{"question": "how do i make lightweight modals?"},
{"question": "how do i make lightweight wireframes?"},
]
const requestBody = {
project: "YOUR_PROJECT_NAME",
data: dataset,
mapping: {
inputs: [
"question",
],
groundTruth: [],
history: [],
},
};
const res = await sdk.datasets.addDatapoints(datasetId, requestBody);
var datapointIds = res.datapointIds;
```
You have successfully uploaded your dataset to HoneyHive using the SDK.
You can now view your dataset in the HoneyHive UI.

# Introduction
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/datasets/introduction
An overview of HoneyHive datasets and their role in the AI application lifecycle.
A dataset in HoneyHive is a structured collection of datapoints. Think of it as a table where each row represents a specific scenario, interaction, or piece of information relevant to your AI application.
These datasets are fundamental building blocks used for various purposes throughout the AI development lifecycle, including:
* Running ad-hoc [experiments and evaluations](/evaluation/quickstart) to test prompts, models, or configurations.
* Setting up automated tests within your CI/CD pipeline to catch regressions.
* Creating curated sets for fine-tuning your language models.
### Why Use HoneyHive Datasets?
Managing datasets within HoneyHive offers several advantages:
* **Centralized Management & Collaboration:** Provides a single source of truth for your test cases and evaluation data, making it easier for teams, including domain experts (like linguists or analysts), to work together. Datasets are automatically synced between the UI and SDK, ensuring consistency.
* **Continuous Curation:** You can continuously refine and expand your datasets by filtering, labeling (manually or with AI assistance), and curating directly from your [production logs and traces](/datasets/dataset-curation), creating valuable proprietary datasets.
* **Seamless Integration:** Datasets integrate directly with HoneyHive's [evaluation framework](/evaluation/quickstart), CI/CD features, and can be easily [exported](/datasets/export) for use in other tools or for fine-tuning.
### Use Cases
* Evaluating specific failure modes or performance aspects of your LLM application.
* Tracking performance across different user segments or input types.
* A/B testing different prompts, models, or RAG configurations.
* Building high-quality datasets for fine-tuning models on specific domains or tasks.
* Establishing benchmark datasets for regression testing in CI/CD.
## Dataset Structure
### Datapoints and Fields
Each row in a HoneyHive dataset is called a **datapoint**. A datapoint is composed of multiple **fields**, which are essentially key-value pairs representing different aspects of that datapoint (e.g., `user_query`, `expected_response`, `customer_segment`).
### Field Groups
When creating or uploading a dataset, each field must be mapped into one of the following functional groups:
* **Input Fields:** These represent the data that will be fed into your application or function during an evaluation run. Examples include user prompts, query parameters, or document snippets for RAG.
* **Ground Truth Fields:** These contain the expected or ideal outputs or reference answers for a given input. They are used by evaluators to compare against the actual output of your application. Examples include reference summaries, known correct answers, or ideal classification labels.
* **Chat History Fields:** This group is specifically for conversational AI use cases. It holds the sequence of previous messages in a dialogue, providing context for the current turn being evaluated.
* **Metadata Fields:** Any field not explicitly mapped as Input, Ground Truth, or Chat History automatically falls into this category. Metadata fields store supplementary information that might be useful for analysis or filtering but isn't directly used as input or ground truth during evaluation (e.g., `source_log_id`, `timestamp`, `user_segment`).
## Creating Datasets
There are several ways to create datasets in HoneyHive:
* **From Production Traces:** Filter and select interesting interactions or edge cases directly from your logged production data within the HoneyHive UI to build targeted datasets. [Learn more](/datasets/dataset-curation).
* **Uploading Data via UI:** Upload structured files (JSON, JSONL, CSV) directly through the HoneyHive web interface. [Learn more](/datasets/import#upload-a-dataset-through-the-ui).
* **Uploading Data via SDK:** Programmatically create and upload datasets using the HoneyHive Python or TypeScript SDKs. [Learn more](/datasets/import#upload-a-dataset-through-the-sdk).
* **In-Code Datasets:** Define datasets directly within your evaluation script code (primarily for quick tests or simple use cases, discussed below).
## Using Datasets
### Primary Use: Experiments
Datasets are most commonly used when running [experiments](/evaluation/quickstart) to evaluate your AI application's performance. You can use either datasets managed within HoneyHive or define them directly in your code.
**Managed Datasets (Recommended)**
These are datasets created via the UI, SDK, or from traces, and reside within your HoneyHive project. They are identified by a unique `dataset_id`.
* **Pros:** Centralized, collaborative, reusable across experiments.
* **How to use:** Create the dataset beforehand (see the [Creating Datasets Section](./#creating-datasets)). Then, pass its `dataset_id` to the `evaluate` function.
```python Python theme={null}
from honeyhive import evaluate
# Assume function_to_evaluate and evaluators are defined elsewhere
if __name__ == "__main__":
evaluate(
function=function_to_evaluate,
hh_api_key='',
hh_project='',
name='Sample Experiment with Managed Dataset',
# Pass the ID of your HoneyHive-managed dataset
dataset_id='',
evaluators=[...],
server_url='' # Optional
)
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
import { evaluate } from "honeyhive";
evaluate({
evaluationFunction: functionToEvaluate, // Direct reference since signature matches
hh_api_key: '',
hh_project: '',
name: 'Sample Experiment',
datasetId: '', // to be passed for json_list
evaluators: [sampleEvaluator], // Add evaluators to run at the end of each run
server_url: '' // Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
})
```
**In-Code Datasets**
These datasets are defined as Python lists of dictionaries (or TypeScript arrays of objects) directly within your evaluation script.
* **Pros:** Simple for quick tests, self-contained within code.
* **Cons:** Harder to share, manage, version, and reuse; not suitable for large datasets.
* **How to use:** Define the list, ensuring fields are nested under `inputs`, `ground_truths`, etc., and pass it via the `dataset` parameter to `evaluate`.
```python Python theme={null}
dataset = [
{
"inputs": {"prompt": "Translate 'hello' to French"},
"ground_truths": {"expected_translation": "Bonjour"}
},
{
"inputs": {"prompt": "Translate 'world' to French"},
"ground_truths": {"expected_translation": "Monde"}
}
# ... more datapoints
]
if __name__ == "__main__":
evaluate(
function=function_to_evaluate,
api_key='',
project='',
name='Sample Experiment with In-Code Dataset',
# Pass the list directly
dataset=dataset,
evaluators=[...],
server_url='' # Optional
)
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
const dataset = [
{
"inputs": {
"product_type": "electric vehicles",
"region": "western europe"
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the electric vehicle (EV) ... ",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"product_type": "gaming consoles",
"region": "north america"
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the gaming console market ... ",
}
}
]
evaluate({
evaluationFunction: functionToEvaluate, // Direct reference since signature matches
apiKey: '',
project: '',
name: 'Sample Experiment',
dataset: dataset, // to be passed for json_list
evaluators: [sampleEvaluator], // Add evaluators to run at the end of each run
serverUrl: '' // Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
})
```
Datasets always have an ID. In the example above, an ID is automatically generated (prefixed with `EXT-` followed by a hash of the content, e.g., `EXT-dc089d82c986a22921e0e773`).
**Support for External (Custom‑ID) In‑Code Datasets**
You can now log an in‑code dataset with your own IDs and names by adding optional `id` and `name` at the top level, and optional `id` on each datapoint.
These IDs will appear in the UI prefixed with `EXT-`, offering full integration with experiment tracking while preserving your existing naming conventions.
```python Python theme={null}
dataset = {
"id": "custom-ds-2025", # Optional custom dataset ID
"name": "My Translation Tests", # Optional human‑readable name
"data": [
{
"id": "tp-001", # Optional custom datapoint ID
"inputs": {"prompt": "Translate 'sun' to Spanish"},
"ground_truths": {"expected_translation": "Sol"}
},
{
"id": "tp-002",
"inputs": {"prompt": "Translate 'moon' to Spanish"},
"ground_truths": {"expected_translation": "Luna"}
}
]
}
if __name__ == "__main__":
evaluate(
function=function_to_evaluate,
api_key='',
project='',
name='Experiment with Custom‑ID In‑Code Dataset',
dataset=dataset,
evaluators=[...],
server_url=''
)
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
const dataset = {
id: 'custom-ds-2025', // Optional custom dataset ID
name: 'My Translation Tests', // Optional human‑readable name
data: [
{
id: 'tp-001', // Optional custom datapoint ID
inputs: { prompt: "Translate 'sun' to Spanish" },
ground_truths: { expected_translation: 'Sol' }
},
{
id: 'tp-002',
inputs: { prompt: "Translate 'moon' to Spanish" },
ground_truths: { expected_translation: 'Luna' }
}
]
};
evaluate({
evaluationFunction: functionToEvaluate, // Direct reference since signature matches
apiKey: '',
project: '',
name: 'Experiment with Custom‑ID In‑Code Dataset',
dataset: dataset, // Pass the object directly
evaluators: [...],
serverUrl: '' // Optional
});
```
In this model, providing `id` and `name` is entirely optional—omit them to let HoneyHive generate `EXT-…` identifiers automatically.
Custom datapoint IDs help you trace individual rows in the UI or logs, while a custom dataset ID and name let you easily refer to that dataset across experiments.
When calling `evaluate`, provide either the `dataset_id` (for managed datasets) or the `dataset` parameter (for in-code datasets), but **never both**.
### Other Uses
While experiments are the primary application, HoneyHive datasets can also be:
* **Exported** for fine-tuning language models on your specific data.
* Used as benchmark sets in **CI/CD pipelines** to automate quality checks and prevent performance regressions.
## Exporting Datasets
You can easily export datasets managed in HoneyHive for use in external processes:
* **How:** Use the HoneyHive SDK to programmatically retrieve dataset contents. [See Export Guide](/datasets/export).
* **Why:** Export data for fine-tuning models, running evaluations in custom environments, archiving, or analysis with other tools.
# Annotation Queues
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluation/annotation-queues
Learn how to create and manage annotation queues for human review and labeling.
Annotation Queues in HoneyHive allow you to organize and manage events that require human review, labeling, or quality assessment. They provide a automated workflow for routing specific events to your team for annotation.
## Setting Up Annotation Queues
There are two ways to set up annotation queues: manually adding events or setting up automated rules.
### Manual Queue Creation
To manually add events to an annotation queue:
1. Navigate to the **Log Store** in your project
2. Apply filters to identify the events you want to add to the queue
3. Select the events you want to include (you can select all matching events)
4. Click the **Add to** dropdown menu
5. Select **Add to Queue**
This approach is useful when you want to curate a specific set of events for review or when dealing with edge cases that need immediate attention.
### Automated Queue Creation
For continuous annotation workflows, you can set up automation rules that automatically add matching events to a queue:
#### Option 1: During Manual Selection
1. Follow the manual queue creation steps above
2. After applying your filters but before adding to queue, ensure your filter criteria are set
3. When creating, toggle the **Queue automation** checkbox
4. Your filters will be saved as automation rules
#### Option 2: From Annotations Tab
1. Navigate to the **Annotations** tab in your project
2. Click **Create Queue**
3. Set up your filter criteria to define which events should be automatically added
4. Toggle the **Queue automation** checkbox
5. Save your queue configuration
With automation enabled, any new events matching your filter criteria will be automatically added to the queue, ensuring continuous coverage without manual intervention.
## Use Cases
Annotation queues are particularly useful for:
* **Quality Assurance:** Route low-confidence predictions or edge cases for human review
* **Active Learning:** Identify and label examples where your model is uncertain
* **Compliance Review:** Flag sensitive or regulated content for manual verification
* **Training Data Curation:** Collect and label examples to improve your datasets
* **Performance Monitoring:** Sample production traffic for ongoing quality assessment

# Comparing Experiments
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluation/comparing_evals
Learn how to compare multiple experiments in HoneyHive to spot improvements and regressions.
Comparison view allows you to run multiple experiments using the same dataset (linked by `dataset_id`) and compare their results side-by-side. The dataset is the input data for the experiment which can be through HoneyHive Datsets or inputs passed. This is particularly useful when you want to benchmark different models, prompts, or configurations against each other.
The comparison view allows you to:
* [step level comparisons](#1-step-level-comparisons)
* [view metric aggregates](#2-aggregated-metrics)
* [find improved/regressed events](#3-improved-regressed-events)
* [compare outputs](#4-output-diff-viewer)
* [analyze metric distribution](#5-metric-distribution)
## Navigating the Comparison View
Let's walk through the key features of the comparison view to help you effectively compare your experiments.
## Advanced Comparison Features
### 1. Step Level Comparisons
HoneyHive allows you to compare experiments at each individual step level, giving you granular insights into how different configurations perform at specific stages of your workflow.
### 2. Aggregated Metrics
HoneyHive automatically calculates and compares aggregates from:
* Server-side metrics
* Client-side metrics
* Composite metrics at the session level
### 3. Improved/regressed events
Filter for events that have improved or regressed in specific metrics.
Select the metric and operation you want.
View the corresponding events in the events table.
### 4. Output Diff Viewer
Compare outputs and metrics of corresponding events with the same event name.
### 5. Metric Distribution
Analyze the distribution of various metrics for deeper insights.
## Best Practices
1. Use a consistent dataset for all compared experiments.
2. Isolate one change at a time (e.g., model, prompt, temperature) to understand its specific impact.
3. Ensure a sufficient sample size for statistically significant conclusions.
4. Document configurations used in each experiment for future reference.
## Conclusion
Comparitive View for Experiments in HoneyHive provide a powerful tool for benchmarking different LLM configurations. Leverage this feature to make data-driven decisions about optimal models, prompts, or parameters for your specific use case.
# Evaluating External Logs
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluation/external_logs
Upload and evaluate existing logs from external sources like spreadsheets or databases.
This guide shows you how to leverage HoneyHive's evaluation capabilities even if your interaction logs already exist in external systems like Excel spreadsheets, CSV files, or database tables. The core idea is to load these external logs into a suitable format and then run HoneyHive evaluators on them.
This is particularly useful when you want to:
* Evaluate the quality of historical interactions.
* Benchmark different versions of prompts or models using past data.
* Apply new evaluation metrics to existing logs without rerunning the original generation process.
This guide assumes you are familiar with how experiments function in HoneyHive. If you need a refresher, please visit the [Experiment's Introduction](/evaluation/introduction) page.
## Overview
For this example, we will use a set of examples from the [CNN / DailyMail](https://huggingface.co/datasets/abisee/cnn_dailymail) dataset, to simulate a summarization task.
The dataset contains two key components:
* `article`: Contains the full text of news articles, which serves as our input
* `highlights`: Contains human-written bullet-point summaries of each article, which we'll use to simulate the expected output from our LLM summarization task
## Step-by-Step Implementation
## Full code example
Here's a minimal example assuming you've loaded your external data into a list format:
```python theme={null}
import pandas as pd
from honeyhive import evaluate, evaluator
from sklearn.feature_extraction.text import TfidfVectorizer
# this is just a demonstration. In a real process, you should convert your source dataset to match the format below
dataset = [
{
'inputs': {
'article': '(CNN)The Palestinian Authority officially became the 123rd member of the International Criminal Court on Wednesday, a step that gives the court jurisdiction over alleged crimes in Palestinian territories. The formal accession was marked with a ceremony at The Hague, in the Netherlands, where the court is based. The Palestinians signed the ICC\'s founding Rome Statute in January...',
},
'ground_truths': {
'highlights': 'Membership gives the ICC jurisdiction over alleged crimes committed in Palestinian territories since last June.\nIsrael and the United States opposed the move, which could open the door to war crimes investigations against Israelis.'
}
},
{
'inputs': {
'article': '(CNN)Never mind cats having nine lives. A stray pooch in Washington State has used up at least three of her own after being hit by a car, apparently whacked on the head with a hammer in a misguided mercy killing and then buried in a field -- only to survive. That\'s according to Washington State University, where the dog -- a friendly white-and-black bully breed mix now named Theia -- has been receiving care at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital...',
},
'ground_truths': {
'highlights': 'Theia, a bully breed mix, was apparently hit by a car, whacked with a hammer and buried in a field.\n"She\'s a true miracle dog and she deserves a good life," says Sara Mellado, who is looking for a home for Theia.'
}
}
]
def pass_through_logged_data(inputs, ground_truths):
return ground_truths["highlights"]
def extract_keywords(text, top_n=10):
# Use TfidfVectorizer to calculate TF-IDF scores
vectorizer = TfidfVectorizer(stop_words='english')
tfidf_matrix = vectorizer.fit_transform([text])
feature_names = vectorizer.get_feature_names_out()
tfidf_scores = tfidf_matrix.toarray()[0]
# Get top N keywords based on TF-IDF scores
keywords = sorted(
zip(feature_names, tfidf_scores),
key=lambda x: x[1],
reverse=True
)[:top_n]
return set([keyword for keyword, score in keywords])
@evaluator()
def compression_ratio(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
return len(outputs)/len(inputs["article"])
@evaluator()
def keyword_overlap(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
article_keywords = extract_keywords(inputs["article"])
highlights_keywords = extract_keywords(outputs)
return len(article_keywords.intersection(highlights_keywords))/len(article_keywords)
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Run experiment
evaluate(
function = pass_through_logged_data, # Function to be evaluated
hh_api_key = HH_API_KEY,
hh_project = HH_PROJECT,
name = 'External Logs',
dataset = dataset, # to be passed for json_list
evaluators=[compression_ratio, keyword_overlap], # to compute client-side metrics on each run
)
```
**Note:** This script requires the `scikit-learn` library for keyword extraction. Install it using `pip install scikit-learn`.
## Creating the Dataset
To evaluate your model's performance, you'll need to transform your external log data into a structured format that the evaluation framework can process. The framework expects a Python list of dictionaries, where each dictionary represents a single interaction containing:
* Request inputs
* Generated outputs
* Ground truth information (if available)
For instance, if your logs are stored in a CSV file, you can load them into a Pandas DataFrame and convert the data using df.to\_dict('records').
Each dictionary represents a single logged interaction. Then, you use the `evaluate` function with your dataset and defined evaluators.
For the purposes of our example, we'll assume our data has already been transformed into this required format:
```python Python theme={null}
dataset = [
{
'inputs': {
'article': '(CNN)The Palestinian Authority officially became the 123rd member of the International Criminal Court on Wednesday, a step that gives the court jurisdiction over alleged crimes in Palestinian territories. The formal accession was marked with a ceremony at The Hague, in the Netherlands, where the court is based. The Palestinians signed the ICC\'s founding Rome Statute in January...',
},
'ground_truths': {
'highlights': 'Membership gives the ICC jurisdiction over alleged crimes committed in Palestinian territories since last June.\nIsrael and the United States opposed the move, which could open the door to war crimes investigations against Israelis.'
}
},
{
'inputs': {
'article': '(CNN)Never mind cats having nine lives. A stray pooch in Washington State has used up at least three of her own after being hit by a car, apparently whacked on the head with a hammer in a misguided mercy killing and then buried in a field -- only to survive. That\'s according to Washington State University, where the dog -- a friendly white-and-black bully breed mix now named Theia -- has been receiving care at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital...',
},
'ground_truths': {
'highlights': 'Theia, a bully breed mix, was apparently hit by a car, whacked with a hammer and buried in a field.\n"She\'s a true miracle dog and she deserves a good life," says Sara Mellado, who is looking for a home for Theia.'
}
}
]
```
This guide demonstrates defining the dataset directly within the script. Alternatively, you can upload your dataset (in JSON, JSONL, or CSV format) to the HoneyHive platform and then pass its `dataset_id` when running the experiment.
For instructions on uploading and managing datasets within HoneyHive, please refer to the [Upload Dataset](/datasets/import) page.
## Defining the Evaluators
To assess the quality of our summarizations, we'll implement two key evaluators: compression ratio and keyword overlap. These metrics help us understand both the length efficiency and content preservation of our summaries.
### Compression ratio
The compression ratio evaluator measures how concise our summary is compared to the original article:
```python Python theme={null}
@evaluator()
def compression_ratio(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
return len(outputs)/len(inputs["article"])
```
This simple metric returns a value between 0 and 1, where lower values indicate more aggressive summarization. For example, a ratio of 0.25 means our summary is one-quarter the length of the original article.
### Keyword overlap
The keyword overlap evaluator assesses how well our summary preserves the main topics and key information from the original text:
```python Python theme={null}
def extract_keywords(text, top_n=10):
# Use TfidfVectorizer to calculate TF-IDF scores
vectorizer = TfidfVectorizer(stop_words='english')
tfidf_matrix = vectorizer.fit_transform([text])
feature_names = vectorizer.get_feature_names_out()
tfidf_scores = tfidf_matrix.toarray()[0]
# Get top N keywords based on TF-IDF scores
keywords = sorted(
zip(feature_names, tfidf_scores),
key=lambda x: x[1],
reverse=True
)[:top_n]
return set([keyword for keyword, score in keywords])
@evaluator()
def keyword_overlap(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
article_keywords = extract_keywords(inputs["article"])
highlights_keywords = extract_keywords(outputs)
return len(article_keywords.intersection(highlights_keywords))/len(article_keywords)
```
This evaluator works in two steps:
First, it extracts the top 10 keywords from both the original article and the generated summary using TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) scoring.
Then, it calculates the overlap ratio between these keyword sets, returning a score between 0 and 1. A higher score indicates better preservation of key concepts from the original article.
## The evaluated function
The evaluated function is traditionally the function that will generate an output based on the input, like an LLM, whose outputs we want to evalute.
In this case, we alreavy have our outputs in our logs, so we can define a simple pass-through function to use the `highglights` column as our output:
```python Python theme={null}
def pass_through_logged_data(inputs, ground_truths):
return ground_truths["highlights"]
```
## Running the Experiment
Finally, we can run the experiment by passing our dataset, function and evaluators to the evaluation harness:
```python Python theme={null}
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Run experiment
evaluate(
function = pass_through_logged_data, # Function to be evaluated
hh_api_key = HH_API_KEY,
hh_project = HH_PROJECT,
name = 'External Logs',
dataset = dataset, # to be passed for json_list
evaluators=[compression_ratio, keyword_overlap], # to compute client-side metrics on each run
)
```
## Overview
This section demonstrates how to evaluate pre-existing logs using the HoneyHive TypeScript SDK. Similar to the Python example, the process involves structuring your external log data (like request inputs, generated outputs, and ground truth) into a format the SDK understands, defining a pass-through function, and creating client-side evaluators.
## Full code example
Here's a minimal TypeScript example:
```typescript theme={null}
// For TF-IDF calculation in keyword_overlap, you'll need the 'natural' library.
// Run: npm install natural @types/natural
import { evaluate } from "honeyhive";
import { TfIdf } from 'natural';
// Define the dataset
const dataset = [
{
"inputs": {
"article": `(CNN)The Palestinian Authority officially became the 123rd member of the International Criminal Court on Wednesday, a step that gives the court jurisdiction over alleged crimes in Palestinian territories. The formal accession was marked with a ceremony at The Hague, in the Netherlands, where the court is based. The Palestinians signed the ICC's founding Rome Statute in January...`,

```
**Note:** This script requires the `natural` library for keyword extraction. Install it using `npm install natural @types/natural` or `yarn add natural @types/natural`.
## Creating the Dataset
To evaluate your model's performance, you'll need to transform your external log data into a structured format that the evaluation framework can process. The framework expects a Python list of dictionaries, where each dictionary represents a single interaction containing:
* Request inputs
* Generated outputs
* Ground truth information (if available)
For example, if your logs are stored in a CSV file, you can parse the data using a library like csv-parser or papaparse to convert it into an array of objects.
Each object represents a single logged interaction. Then, you use the `evaluate` function with your dataset and defined evaluators.
For the purposes of our example, we'll assume our data has already been transformed into this required format:
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
const dataset = [
{
'inputs': {
'article': '(CNN)The Palestinian Authority officially became the 123rd member of the International Criminal Court on Wednesday, a step that gives the court jurisdiction over alleged crimes in Palestinian territories. The formal accession was marked with a ceremony at The Hague, in the Netherlands, where the court is based. The Palestinians signed the ICC\'s founding Rome Statute in January...',
},
'ground_truths': {
'highlights': 'Membership gives the ICC jurisdiction over alleged crimes committed in Palestinian territories since last June.\nIsrael and the United States opposed the move, which could open the door to war crimes investigations against Israelis.'
}
},
{
'inputs': {
'article': '(CNN)Never mind cats having nine lives. A stray pooch in Washington State has used up at least three of her own after being hit by a car, apparently whacked on the head with a hammer in a misguided mercy killing and then buried in a field -- only to survive. That\'s according to Washington State University, where the dog -- a friendly white-and-black bully breed mix now named Theia -- has been receiving care at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital...',
},
'ground_truths': {
'highlights': 'Theia, a bully breed mix, was apparently hit by a car, whacked with a hammer and buried in a field.\n"She\'s a true miracle dog and she deserves a good life," says Sara Mellado, who is looking for a home for Theia.'
}
}
]
```
This guide demonstrates defining the dataset directly within the script. Alternatively, you can upload your dataset (in JSON, JSONL, or CSV format) to the HoneyHive platform and then pass its `dataset_id` when running the experiment.
For instructions on uploading and managing datasets within HoneyHive, please refer to the [Upload Dataset](/datasets/import) page.
## Defining the Evaluators
To assess the quality of our summarizations, we'll implement two key evaluators: compression ratio and keyword overlap. These metrics help us understand both the length efficiency and content preservation of our summaries.
### Compression ratio
The compression ratio evaluator measures how concise our summary is compared to the original article:
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
function compressionRatio(output: any, input: Record, ground_truths: Record): Record {
if (typeof output !== 'string' || !input || typeof input["article"] !== 'string' || input["article"].length === 0) {
return { compression_ratio: NaN };
}
const ratio = output.length / input["article"].length;
return { compression_ratio: ratio };
}
```
This simple metric returns a value between 0 and 1, where lower values indicate more aggressive summarization. For example, a ratio of 0.25 means our summary is one-quarter the length of the original article.
### Keyword overlap
The keyword overlap evaluator assesses how well our summary preserves the main topics and key information from the original text:
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
function extractKeywords(text: string, top_n: number = 10): Set {
const tfidf = new TfIdf();
tfidf.addDocument(text.toLowerCase());
const terms: { term: string; tfidf: number }[] = [];
tfidf.listTerms(0).forEach(item => {
terms.push(item);
});
terms.sort((a, b) => b.tfidf - a.tfidf);
const topKeywords = terms.slice(0, top_n).map(item => item.term);
return new Set(topKeywords);
}
function keywordOverlap(output: any, input: Record, ground_truths: Record): Record {
if (typeof output !== 'string' || !input || typeof input["article"] !== 'string') {
console.warn("Invalid input for keywordOverlap evaluator.");
return { keyword_overlap: NaN };
}
const articleKeywords = extractKeywords(input["article"]);
const highlightsKeywords = extractKeywords(output);
if (articleKeywords.size === 0) {
return { keyword_overlap: 0 };
}
const intersection = new Set([...articleKeywords].filter(keyword => highlightsKeywords.has(keyword)));
const overlap = intersection.size / articleKeywords.size;
return { keyword_overlap: overlap };
```
This evaluator works in two steps:
First, it extracts the top 10 keywords from both the original article and the generated summary using TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) scoring.
Then, it calculates the overlap ratio between these keyword sets, returning a score between 0 and 1. A higher score indicates better preservation of key concepts from the original article.
## The evaluated function
The evaluated function is traditionally the function that will generate an output based on the input, like an LLM, whose outputs we want to evalute.
In this case, we alreavy have our outputs in our logs, so we can define a simple pass-through function to use the `highglights` column as our output:
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
async function passThroughLoggedData(inputs: Record, ground_truths: Record): Promise {
return ground_truths["highlights"];
}
```
## Running the Experiment
Finally, we can run the experiment by passing our dataset, function and evaluators to the evaluation harness:
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
async function main() {
const result = await evaluate({
function: passThroughLoggedData, // Function to be evaluated
apiKey: process.env.HH_API_KEY,
project: process.env.HH_PROJECT,
name: 'External Logs TS', // Experiment name
dataset: dataset,
evaluators: [compressionRatio, keywordOverlap], // Client-side evaluators
serverUrl: process.env.HH_API_URL // Optional: specify server URL if needed
});
}
```
## Dashboard View
Once the script runs, HoneyHive ingests each log entry as a trace, along with the computed client-side evaluator metrics. Navigate to your project in the HoneyHive dashboard to view the results. You can analyze distributions, filter by metadata, and compare metrics across your dataset.
*Image: Example evaluation view in HoneyHive.*
## Conclusion
By mapping your existing external logs to the HoneyHive `evaluate` function's expected format, you can apply powerful client-side and server-side evaluations without rerunning the original AI/LLM calls. This provides a flexible way to assess performance, track quality over time, and gain insights from historical data.

# Introduction
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluation/introduction
Get started with running experiments with HoneyHive
Experiments in HoneyHive help you systematically test and improve your AI applications. Whether you're iterating on prompts, comparing models, or optimizing your RAG pipeline, experiments provide a structured way to measure improvements and ensure reliability.
## What is an experiment?
An experiment in HoneyHive consists of three core components:
1. **Application Logic**: The core function you want to evaluate - this could be different models, prompts, retrieval strategies, or an end-to-end agent you want to evaluate.
2. **Dataset**: A dataset of inputs (and optionally target outputs) you're evaluating against. Using consistent test cases ensures you can reliably compare different versions of your application as you iterate.
3. **Evaluators**: The metrics and criteria you're measuring. Evaluators help quantify improvements and catch regressions across different versions as you iterate. These can be either automated (i.e. code or LLM evaluators) or performed by a human.
## Why run experiments with HoneyHive?
Experiments provide a systematic approach to improving your AI applications:
* **Iterate with confidence**: Test prompt variations, model configurations, and architectural changes against consistent metrics
* **Track improvements**: Monitor how changes affect key metrics over time and ensure continuous improvement
* **Automate quality checks**: With GitHub integration, automatically run experiments on code changes and set performance thresholds
* **Compare approaches**: Evaluate different models, retrieval methods, or chunking strategies using standardized metrics
* **Ensure reliability**: Catch potential issues by testing across diverse scenarios before deploying to production
## How do experiments work?
HoneyHive uses metadata linking to track and organize experiment traces:
### Trace Metadata and Linking
Every trace in HoneyHive contains metadata that links it to specific experiments and datapoint you're testing against (i.e. `inputs` and `ground_truths` pairs). The `run_id` in the metadata links related test traces together, while the `datapoint_id` connects traces that were run on the same test cases / datapoints.
### Experiment Structure
1. **Experiment-Dataset Relationship**
* Each experiment run (identified by `run_id`) is linked to a specific dataset
* This dataset-run linking enables aggregate comparison across different configurations
* Multiple runs can use the same dataset, allowing you to test different approaches against consistent inputs
2. **Trace Comparison**
* Traces with the same `datapoint_id` represent different configurations tested on identical inputs
* This enables direct comparison of performance for specific inputs
* Example: Compare how different LLM models handle the same prompt, or how different RAG configurations retrieve for the same query
3. **Performance Tracking**
* Evaluators measure performance metrics for each trace
* Results can be analyzed at both individual trace and aggregate run levels
* Metrics are tracked over time to identify improvements or regressions
### Integration with Development Workflow
The experiment framework integrates with GitHub to:
* Trigger automated experiment runs on code changes
* Set performance thresholds that must be met
* Track metric improvements across commits
* Alert on performance regressions
This metadata-driven approach to testing and evaluation lets you compare performance across any configuration dimension - whether you're testing different prompts, models, or entire pipeline architectures.
# Using Datasets in UI
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluation/managed_datasets
Run experiments using datasets stored and managed in HoneyHive UI.
In the [experiments Quickstart](/evaluation/quickstart), you learned how to run an experiment using local datasets defined
directly on your code. This guide focuses on utilizing datasets managed through the HoneyHive platform.
Managed datasets offer several advantages, particularly for team collaboration, as they are centralized and versioned.
Though this approach requires some additional initial setup compared to local evaluators, it provides a more robust foundation for collaborative work.
## Full code
Below is a minimal example demonstrating how to run an experiment using managed datasets.
This assumes you have already [created a project](/workspace/projects) and an [API key](/sdk-reference/authentication).
You will also need to provide a Dataset ID, which will be detailed in the following section.
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import evaluate, evaluator
import os
from openai import OpenAI
import random
openai_client = OpenAI(api_key=os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"])
# Create function to be evaluated
# inputs -> parameter to which datapoint or json value will be passed
# (optional) ground_truths -> ground truth value for the input
def function_to_evaluate(inputs, ground_truths):
completion = openai_client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o",
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": f"You are an expert analyst specializing in {inputs['product_type']} market trends."},
{"role": "user", "content": f"Could you provide an analysis of the current market performance and consumer reception of {inputs['product_type']} in {inputs['region']}? Please include any notable trends or challenges specific to this region."}
]
)
# Output -> session output
return completion.choices[0].message.content
@evaluator()
def sample_evaluator(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
# Code here
return random.randint(1, 5)
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Run experiment
evaluate(
function = function_to_evaluate, # Function to be evaluated
hh_api_key = '',
hh_project = '',
name = 'Sample Experiment',
dataset_id = '', # to be passed for json_list
evaluators=[sample_evaluator] # to compute client-side metrics on each run
)
```
Let's first create our dataset in jsonl format. Simply create a file named `market_dataset.jsonl` and paste the following content:
```json theme={null}
{"product_type":"electric vehicles","region":"western europe","time_period":"first half of 2023","metric_1":"total revenue","metric_2":"market share","response":"As of 2023, the electric vehicle (EV) market in Western Europe is experiencing significant growth, with the region maintaining its status as a global leader in EV adoption. [continue...]"}
{"product_type":"gaming consoles","region":"north america","time_period":"holiday season 2022","metric_1":"units sold","metric_2":"gross profit margin","response":"As of 2023, the gaming console market in North America is characterized by intense competition, steady consumer demand, and evolving trends influenced by technological advancements and changing consumer preferences. [continue...]"}
{"product_type":"smart home devices","region":"australia and new zealand","time_period":"fiscal year 2022-2023","metric_1":"customer acquisition cost","metric_2":"average revenue per user","response":"As of 2023, the market for smart home devices in Australia and New Zealand is experiencing robust growth, driven by increasing consumer interest in home automation and the enhanced convenience and security these devices offer. [continue...]"}
```
In addition to JSONL, you can also create JSON or CSV files, as documented [here](/datasets/import#upload-a-dataset-through-the-ui).
Now that we have our dataset in the proper format, let's upload it to HoneyHive. HoneyHive supports 2 ways to upload it: via UI or [via SDK](/datasets/import#upload-a-dataset-through-the-sdk).
In this guide, let's do that through the UI:
If you want to know more about uploading datasets to HoneyHive, check our [Datasets Documentation Page](/datasets/import).
Be sure to save your Dataset ID - we will use it in the last step of this tutorial.
The remaining steps are the same as those seen on Experiments Quickstart.
Define the function you want to evaluate:
```python theme={null}
# inputs -> parameter to which datapoint or json value will be passed
# (optional) ground_truths -> ground truth values for the input
def function_to_evaluate(inputs, ground_truths):
# Code here
return result
```
The `inputs` and `ground_truths` fields as defined in your dataset will be passed to this function.
For example, in one execution of this function, `inputs` might contain a dictionary like:
```python theme={null}
{'product_type': 'gaming consoles', 'region': 'north america', ...}
```
and `ground_truths` might contain a dictionary like:
```python theme={null}
{ 'response': 'As of 2023, the gaming console market...'}
```
The value returned by the function would map to the `outputs` field of each run in the experiment and will be accessible to your evaluator function, as we will see below.
Define client-side evaluators in your code that run immediately after each experiment iteration. These evaluators have direct access to inputs, outputs, and ground truths, and run synchronously with your experiment.
```python theme={null}
@evaluator()
def sample_evaluator(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
# Code here
import random
return random.randint(1, 5)
```
In addition to `inputs` and `ground_truths`, the evaluator function has access to the return value from `function_to_evaluate`, which is mapped to `outputs`. In this example, `outputs` would contain a string with the model response, such as:
```python theme={null}
"As of my last update in October 2023, the gaming console market in North America continued to experience dynamic changes influenced by several factors..."
```
For more complex multi-step pipelines, you can [compute and log client-side evaluators on specific traces and spans](/tracing/client-side-evals) directly in your experiment harness.
Finally, you can run your experiment with `evaluate`:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import evaluate
from your_module import function_to_evaluate
if __name__ == "__main__":
evaluate(
function = function_to_evaluate,
hh_api_key = '',
hh_project = '',
name = 'Sample Experiment',
# Pass one of the below parameters
dataset_id = '', # to be passed for datasets in HoneyHive Cloud
# Add evaluators to run at the end of each run
evaluators=[sample_evaluator, ...]
)
```
## Dashboard View
Remember to review the results in your HoneyHive dashboard to gain insights into your model's performance across different inputs. The dashboard provides a comprehensive view of the experiment results and performance across multiple runs.
## Conclusion
By following these steps, you've learned how to run experiments using HoneyHive's server-side evaluators. This approach offers centralized evaluation management, scalability, and version control, making it easier to handle complex or resource-intensive evaluations while maintaining consistent standards and enabling seamless collaboration across your team.
## Full code
Below is a minimal example demonstrating how to run an experiment using managed datasets.

You will also need to provide a Dataset ID, which will be detailed in the following section.
```typescript theme={null}
import { evaluate } from "honeyhive";
import { OpenAI } from 'openai';
const openai = new OpenAI({ apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_KEY });
// Create function to be evaluated
// input -> parameter to which datapoint or json value will be passed
export async function functionToEvaluate(input: Record) {
try {
const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
model: "gpt-4",
messages: [
{
role: 'system',
content: `You are an expert analyst specializing in ${input.product_type} market trends.`
},
{
role: 'user',
content: `Could you provide an analysis of the current market performance and consumer reception of ${input.product_type} in ${input.region}? Please include any notable trends or challenges specific to this region.`
}
],
});
// Output -> session output
return response.choices[0].message;
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error making GPT-4 call:', error);
throw error;
}
}
// Sample evaluator that returns fixed metrics
function sampleEvaluator(input: Record, output: any) {
// Code here
return {
sample_metric: 0.5,
sample_metric_2: true
};
}
evaluate({
evaluationFunction: functionToEvaluate, // Function to be evaluated
hh_api_key: '',
hh_project: '',
name: 'Sample Experiment',
dataset_id: '',
evaluators: [sampleEvaluator] // to compute client-side metrics on each run
})
```
Let's first create our dataset in jsonl format. Simply create a file named `market_dataset.jsonl` and paste the following content:
```json theme={null}
{"product_type":"electric vehicles","region":"western europe","time_period":"first half of 2023","metric_1":"total revenue","metric_2":"market share","response":"As of 2023, the electric vehicle (EV) market in Western Europe is experiencing significant growth, with the region maintaining its status as a global leader in EV adoption. [continue...]"}

[continue...]"}
```
Now that we have our dataset in the proper format, let's upload it to HoneyHive:
If you want to know more about uploading datasets to HoneyHive, check our [Datasets Documentation Page](/datasets/import).
Be sure to save your Dataset ID - we will use it in the last step of this tutorial.
The remaining steps are the same as those seen on Experiments Quickstart.
Define the function you want to evaluate:
```typescript theme={null}
// Create function to be evaluated
export async function functionToEvaluate(input: Record) {
try {
// your code here
return result;
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error:', error);
throw error;
}
}
```
The value returned by the function would map to the `outputs` field of each run in the experiment.
Define client-side evaluators in your code that run immediately after each experiment iteration. These evaluators have direct access to inputs and outputs, and run synchronously with your experiment.
```typescript theme={null}
// input -> input defined above
// output -> output returned by the function
function sampleEvaluator(input: Record, output: any) {
// Code here
// Each evaluator can return a dictionary of metrics
return { sample_metric: 0.5, sample_metric_2: true };
}
```
For more complex multi-step pipelines, you can [compute and log client-side evaluators on specific traces and spans](/tracing/client-side-evals) directly in your experiment harness.
```typescript theme={null}
import { evaluate } from "honeyhive";
import { functionToEvaluate } from "./your-module";
evaluate({
evaluationFunction: functionToEvaluate, // Direct reference since signature matches
hh_api_key: '',
hh_project: '',
name: 'Sample Experiment',
dataset_id: '',
evaluators: [sampleEvaluator] // Add evaluators to run at the end of each run
})
```
## Dashboard View

## Conclusion
By following these steps, you've learned how to run experiments using HoneyHive's managed datasets. This approach offers centralized dataset management and version control, making it easier to systematically test your LLM-based systems while maintaining consistent evaluation standards across your team.
# Multi-Step Experiments
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluation/multi_step_evals
Learn to evaluate multi-step LLM applications with component-level metrics
In this tutorial, you will learn how to run an experiment to evaluate a multi-step LLM application.
We will demonstrate this by implementing a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (**RAG**) pipeline, utilizing MongoDB for **document retrieval** and OpenAI for **response generation**.
By the end of this guide, you will have an evaluated RAG pipeline, having assessed its ability to retrieve relevant documents and generate consistent responses using metrics such as retrieval relevance and response consistency.
The key steps covered in this tutorial include:
1. Setting up a **vector database** in MongoDB for semantic search.
2. Defining a sample **dataset** with **inputs** and corresponding **ground truth** values.
3. Establishing **evaluators** to calculate similarity metrics for both document retrieval and response generation stages.
4. Implementing the **RAG Pipeline**, which includes document retrieval and response generation stages.
5. Running a comprehensive experiment using **HoneyHive's evaluation framework** and analyzing the results.

```
## Overview
For this tutorial, we will use the example of a medical/health question answering application.
Let's go through the main components of this example by splitting it into two parts: The RAG pipeline we wish to evaluate and the evaluators used to assess its performance.
### RAG Pipeline
The pipeline consists of the following steps:
* **Document Retrieval**: Using MongoDB's vector search capabilities, we retrieve the most relevant documents for a given query.
* **Response Generation**: Using OpenAI's API, we generate a response based on the retrieved documents and the query.
### Evaluators
* **Retrieval Evaluator**: This evaluator assesses the retrieval process by measuring the semantic similarity between the query and the retrieved documents.
* **Response Evaluator**: This evaluator measures the semantic similarity between the model's final response and the provided ground truth for each query.
* **Pipeline Evaluator**: This evaluator generates basic metrics related to the overall pipeline, such as the number of retrieved documents and the query length.
In the document retrieval phase, we will compute semantic similarity scores using sentence embeddings. These embeddings will be generated using the [all-MiniLM-L6-v2](https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2) model from the [sentence-transformers](https://github.com/UKPLab/sentence-transformers) library.
## Prerequisites
To be able to run this tutorial, make sure you have the following prerequisites in place:
* A [MongoDB Atlas Cluster](https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/getting-started/) set up and ready to use.
* An OpenAI API key for model response generation.
* A HoneyHive project already created, as outlined in [here](/workspace/projects).
* An API key for your HoneyHive project, as explained [here](/sdk-reference/authentication).
## Setting Up the Environment
First, let's install all the required libraries:
```bash theme={null}
pip install pymongo python-dotenv sentence-transformers scikit-learn honeyhive
```
Then, we initialize the necessary components, including MongoDB, OpenAI, and the SentenceTransformer model for embedding generation.
```python theme={null}
# Standard library imports
import os
from typing import List, Dict
# Third-party imports
import numpy as np
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from pymongo import MongoClient
from openai import OpenAI
from sklearn.metrics.pairwise import cosine_similarity
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
from honeyhive import evaluate, evaluator, trace, enrich_span, enrich_session
# Load environment variables and initialize clients
load_dotenv()
OPENAI_API_KEY = os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY')
openai_client = OpenAI(api_key=OPENAI_API_KEY)
# MongoDB setup
client = MongoClient(os.getenv('MONGODB_URI'))
db = client['medical_db']
collection = db['articles']
# Model initialization
model = SentenceTransformer('all-MiniLM-L6-v2')
```
In this example, our MongoDB collection is preloaded with sample medical articles:
```json theme={null}
{
"title": "Exercise and Diabetes",
"content": "Regular exercise reduces diabetes risk by 30%. Studies show that engaging in moderate physical activity for at least 30 minutes daily can help regulate blood sugar levels. Daily walking is particularly recommended for diabetes prevention.",
},
{
"title": "Morning Exercise Benefits",
"content": "Studies show morning exercises have better impact on blood sugar levels. Research indicates that working out before breakfast can improve insulin sensitivity and help with weight management.",
},
{
"title": "Diet and Diabetes",
"content": "A balanced diet rich in fiber and low in refined carbohydrates can help prevent diabetes. Whole grains, vegetables, and lean proteins are essential components of a diabetes-prevention diet.",
}
```
This guide assumes you have:
1. A MongoDB Atlas cluster set up
2. A database named "medical\_db" with a collection named "articles"
3. A vector search index named "vector\_index" configured on the "articles" collection with the following configuration:
```json theme={null}
{
"fields": [
{
"numDimensions": 384,
"path": "embedding",
"similarity": "cosine",
"type": "vector"
}
]
}
```
If you haven't set up these prerequisites, please refer to [MongoDB Atlas' documentation](https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/getting-started/), or feel free to follow along with your pre-existing vector DB or external retrieval system!
## Implementing the RAG Pipeline
Let's build the actual RAG pipeline. Our main function will be `rag_pipeline`, that will call `get_relevant_docs` followed by `generate_response`.
```python {25, 51-56} theme={null}
@trace
def get_relevant_docs(query: str, top_k: int = 2):
"""Retrieves relevant documents from MongoDB using semantic search"""
# Compute query embedding
query_embedding = model.encode(query).tolist()
# Search for similar documents using vector similarity
pipeline = [
{
"$vectorSearch": {
"index": "vector_index",
"path": "embedding",
"queryVector": query_embedding,
"numCandidates": top_k * 2, # Search through more candidates for better results
"limit": top_k
}
}
]
try:
results = list(collection.aggregate(pipeline))
retrieved_docs = [doc["content"] for doc in results]
retrieved_embeddings = [doc["embedding"] for doc in results]
retrieval_relevance = retrieval_relevance_evaluator(query_embedding, retrieved_embeddings)
enrich_span(metrics={"retrieval_relevance": retrieval_relevance})
return retrieved_docs
except Exception as e:
print(f"Search error: {e}")
# Fallback to basic find if vector search fails
return [doc["content"] for doc in collection.find().limit(top_k)]
@trace
def generate_response(docs: List[str], query: str):
"""Generates response using OpenAI model"""
prompt = f"Question: {query}\nContext: {docs}\nAnswer:"
completion = openai_client.chat.completions.create(
model="o3-mini",
messages=[
{"role": "user", "content": prompt}
]
)
return completion.choices[0].message.content
def rag_pipeline(inputs: Dict, ground_truths: Dict) -> str:
"""Complete RAG pipeline that retrieves docs and generates response"""
query = inputs["query"]
docs = get_relevant_docs(query)
response = generate_response(docs, query)
enrich_session(metrics={
"rag_pipeline": {
"num_retrieved_docs": len(docs),
"query_length": len(query.split())
}
})
return response
```
Note that the highlighted sections in the example above indicate where the code enriches our traces with session and span-level metrics using HoneyHive's `enrich_session` and `enrich_span` methods.
## Creating the dataset
Let's define our sample dataset with the desired `inputs` and associated `ground_truths`:
```python theme={null}
dataset = [
{
"inputs": {
"query": "How does exercise affect diabetes?",
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "Regular exercise reduces diabetes risk by 30%. Daily walking is recommended.",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"query": "What are the benefits of morning exercise?",
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "Morning exercise has better impact on blood sugar levels.",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"query": "What is the best diet for diabetes?",
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "A balanced diet rich in fiber and low in refined carbohydrates is recommended.",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"query": "What is the best way to manage stress?",
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and adequate sleep are effective ways to manage stress.",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"query": "How do sleep patterns affect mental health?",
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "Sleep patterns significantly impact mental well-being. Poor sleep can lead to increased anxiety and depression risks.",
}
},
]
```
Notice that in our dataset, we have some questions that are not covered by the examples in our vector database, like questions about sleep patterns and stress management.
In this simplified example, this can be easily detected. However, in real scenarios, this could be harder to identify.
Let's see if this is reflected in our evaluation results at the end of this tutorial.
## Defining the Evaluators
For the retrieval relevance evaluator, we calculate the cosine similarity between the query and each retrieved document. The final metric is the average of these similarity scores.
For the response consistency evaluator, we assess the semantic similarity between the generated output and the ground truth. This helps determine how closely the model's response aligns with the expected answer.
```python theme={null}
def retrieval_relevance_evaluator(query_embedding: np.ndarray, retrieved_embeddings: List[np.ndarray]) -> float:
"""Evaluates the relevance of retrieved documents to the query"""
try:
similarities = cosine_similarity([query_embedding], retrieved_embeddings)[0]
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
return 0.0
# Return average similarity
return float(np.mean(similarities))
@evaluator()
def consistency_evaluator(outputs: str, inputs: Dict[str, str], ground_truths: Dict[str, str]) -> float:
"""Evaluates consistency between outputs and ground truths"""
output_embeddings = model.encode(outputs).reshape(1, -1) # Reshape to 2D array
truth_embeddings = model.encode(ground_truths["response"]).reshape(1, -1) # Reshape to 2D array
# Calculate cosine similarity between outputs and ground truths
similarities = cosine_similarity(output_embeddings, truth_embeddings)
# Return average similarity
return float(np.mean(similarities))
```
## Running the Experiment
Finally, we define a dataset and run the experiment using HoneyHive's `evaluate` function.
```python theme={null}
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Setup MongoDB with sample data
setup_mongodb()
# Run experiment
evaluate(
function=rag_pipeline,
hh_api_key=os.getenv('HONEYHIVE_API_KEY'),
hh_project=os.getenv('HONEYHIVE_PROJECT'),
name='MongoDB RAG Pipeline Evaluation',
dataset=dataset,
evaluators=[consistency_evaluator],
)
```
In this tutorial, we are logging metrics in three different ways: the response consistency evaluator is the main evaluator, and is passed directly to the `evaluate` harness, along with the function
to be evaluated, `rag_pipeline`. The retrieval evaluator metric is logged by using `enrich_span`, as it's related to the span `get_relevant_docs`, whereas the pipeline evaluator metrics
are logged with `enrich_session`, because it contains metrics related to the overall session.
## Results and Insights
After running the experiment, you can view the results in the Experiments page in HoneyHive:
For the retrieval step, we observe that some queries resulted in low retrieval relevance.
Examining the Evaluation Summary on the left, we also notice that the average response consistency (0.73) is higher than the average retrieval relevance (0.41).
Let’s take a closer look at the distribution of these metrics:
This suggests that while the model's responses are generally on-topic, they may not always be grounded in the source of truth—particularly for the two examples with retrieval relevance scores below 0.25.
Let’s drill down into one of these examples:
Here, we identify the root cause: in this example, queries about stress and sleep disorders had low retrieval relevance because the vector database lacked relevant documents on these topics.
## Conclusion
By following this tutorial, you've built a multi-step RAG pipeline, integrated it with MongoDB and OpenAI, and evaluated its performance using HoneyHive.
Explore the results further to uncover valuable insights and optimize your pipeline!

@evaluator()
def sample_evaluator(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
# Code here
return random.randint(1, 5)
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Run experiment

)
```
## Running an experiment
**Prerequisites**
* You have already created a project in HoneyHive, as explained [here](/workspace/projects).
* You have an API key for your project, as explained [here](/sdk-reference/authentication).
***Expected Time***: 5 minutes
**Steps**
Let's create our dataset by inputting data directly into our code using a list of JSON objects:
```python theme={null}
dataset = [
{
"inputs": {
"product_type": "electric vehicles",
"region": "western europe"
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the electric vehicle (EV) ... ",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"product_type": "gaming consoles",
"region": "north america"
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the gaming console market ... ",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"product_type": "smart home devices",
"region": "australia and new zealand"
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the market for smart home devices in Australia and New Zealand ... ",
}
},
]
```
The `inputs` and `ground_truths` fields will be accessible in both the function we want to evaluate and the evaluator function, as we will see below.
Define the function you want to evaluate. This can be arbitrarily complex, anywhere from a prompt or a simple retrieval pipeline, to an end-to-end multi-agent system:
```python theme={null}
# inputs -> parameter to which datapoint or json value will be passed
# (optional) ground_truths -> ground truth values for the input
def function_to_evaluate(inputs, ground_truths):
# Code here
return result
```
**Important Note About Parameters**
The function parameters are positional arguments and must be specified in this order:
1. `inputs` (first parameter): dictionary of parameters from your dataset
2. `ground_truths` (second parameter): optional ground truth dictionary
The value returned by the function would map to the `outputs` field of each trace in the experiment and will be accessible to your evaluator function, as we will see below.
Define client-side evaluators in your code that run immediately after each experiment iteration. These evaluators have direct access to inputs, outputs, and ground truths, and run synchronously with your experiment.
```python theme={null}
@evaluator()
def sample_evaluator(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
# Code here
import random
return random.randint(1, 5)
```
**Important Note About Evaluator Parameters**
The evaluator parameters are positional arguments and must be specified in this order:
1. `outputs` (first parameter): the output returned by the evaluated function
2. `inputs` (second parameter): the original input dictionary
3. `ground_truths` (third parameter): the ground truth dictionary
For more complex multi-step pipelines, you can [compute and log client-side evaluators on specific traces and spans](/tracing/client-side-evals) directly in your experiment harness.
Finally, you can run your experiment with `evaluate`:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import evaluate
from your_module import function_to_evaluate
if __name__ == "__main__":
evaluate(
function = function_to_evaluate,
api_key = '',
project = '',
name = 'Sample Experiment',
# To be passed for datasets managed in code
dataset = dataset,
# Add evaluators to your trace at the end of each execution
evaluators=[sample_evaluator, ...],
server_url='' # Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
)
```
If you are using a [self-hosted](/setup/self-hosted) or [dedicated](/setup/dedicated) deployment, you also need to pass:
* `server_url`: The private HoneyHive endpoint found in the Settings page in the HoneyHive app.
## Dashboard View
Remember to review the results in your HoneyHive dashboard to gain insights into your model's performance across different inputs. The dashboard provides a comprehensive view of the experiment results and performance across multiple runs.
## Conclusion
By following these steps, you can set up and run experiments using HoneyHive. This allows you to systematically test your LLM-based systems across various scenarios and collect performance data for analysis.

If you are interested in a specific workflow, we recommend reading the walkthrough for the relevant product area.
Learn how to evaluate and monitor your AI applications with HoneyHive's flexible evaluation framework.
Compare experiments side-by-side in HoneyHive to identify improvements, regressions, and optimize your workflows.
Run experiments using HoneyHive's managed datasets, enabling centralized dataset management and version control.
Server-side evaluators are centralized, scalable, and versioned, making them ideal for resource-intensive or asynchronous tasks.
## Full code
Here's a minimal example to get you started with experiments in HoneyHive:
```typescript theme={null}
import { evaluate } from "honeyhive";
import { OpenAI } from 'openai';
const openai = new OpenAI({ apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_KEY });
// Create function to be evaluated
// input -> parameter to which datapoint or json value will be passed
// ground_truths -> optional parameter - ground truth value
export async function functionToEvaluate(input: Record, ground_truths: Record) {
try {
const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
model: "gpt-4",
messages: [
{
role: 'system',
content: `You are an expert analyst specializing in ${input.product_type} market trends.`
},
{
role: 'user',
content: `Could you provide an analysis of the current market performance and consumer reception of ${input.product_type} in ${input.region}? Please include any notable trends or challenges specific to this region.`
}
],
});
// Output -> session output
return response.choices[0].message;
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error making GPT-4 call:', error);
throw error;
}
}
const dataset = [
{
"inputs": {
"product_type": "electric vehicles",
"region": "western europe"
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the electric vehicle (EV) ... ",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"product_type": "gaming consoles",
"region": "north america"
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the gaming console market ... ",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"product_type": "smart home devices",
"region": "australia and new zealand"
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the market for smart home devices in Australia and New Zealand ... ",
}
}
]
// Sample evaluator that returns fixed metrics
function sampleEvaluator(outputs: any, inputs: Record, ground_truths: Record) {
// Code here
return {
sample_metric: 0.5,
sample_metric_2: true
};
}
evaluate({
function: functionToEvaluate, // Function to be evaluated
apiKey: '',
project: '',
name: 'Sample Experiment',
dataset: dataset, // to be passed for json_list
evaluators: [sampleEvaluator], // to compute client-side metrics on each run
serverUrl: '' // Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
})
```

"region": "australia and new zealand"
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the market for smart home devices in Australia and New Zealand ... ",
}
}
]
```
The input fields in the dataset should map to the fields mapped in the `evaluate` function.
Define the function you want to evaluate in your experiment:
```typescript theme={null}
// Create function to be evaluated
export async function functionToEvaluate(input: Record, ground_truths: Record) {
try {
// your code here
return result;
} catch (error) {

The function parameters are positional arguments and must be specified in this order:
1. `inputs` (first parameter): dictionary of parameters from your dataset
2. `ground_truths` (second parameter): optional ground truth dictionary
The value returned by the function would map to the `outputs` field of each run in the experiment.
Define client-side evaluators in your code that run immediately after each experiment iteration. These evaluators have direct access to inputs, outputs, and ground truths, and run synchronously with your experiment.
```typescript theme={null}
// input -> input defined above
// output -> output returned by the function
function sampleEvaluator(outputs: any, inputs: Record, ground_truths: Record) {
// Code here
// Each evaluator can return a dictionary of metrics
return { sample_metric: 0.5, sample_metric_2: true };
}

dataset: dataset, // to be passed for json_list
evaluators: [sampleEvaluator], // Add evaluators to run at the end of each run
serverUrl: '' // Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments

# Using Server-Side Evaluators
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluation/server_side_evaluators
Run experiments using server-side HoneyHive evaluators
In the [experiments Quickstart](/evaluation/quickstart), you learned how to run an experiment using client-side evaluators executed directly within your application's environment.
This guide focuses on utilizing server-side evaluators powered by HoneyHive's infrastructure.
Server-side evaluators offer several advantages, particularly for resource-intensive or asynchronous tasks, as they are centralized, scalable, and versioned.
If you want to know more about the differences between client-side and server-side evaluators, refer to the [Evaluator Introduction](/evaluators/introduction) page.

"response": "As of 2023, the gaming console market ... ",
}
},
{
"inputs": {
"product_type": "smart home devices",
"region": "australia and new zealand",
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "As of 2023, the market for smart home devices in Australia and New Zealand ... ",
}
},
]
```
The `inputs` and `ground_truths` fields will be accessible in both the function we want to evaluate and the evaluator function, as we will see below.
Define the function you want to evaluate:
```python theme={null}
def function_to_evaluate(inputs, ground_truths):
completion = openai_client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o",
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": f"You are an expert analyst specializing in {inputs['product_type']} market trends."},
{"role": "user", "content": f"Could you provide an analysis of the current market performance and consumer reception of {inputs['product_type']} in {inputs['region']}? Please include any notable trends or challenges specific to this region."}
]
)
# Output -> session output
return completion.choices[0].message.content
```
* `inputs` is a dictionary with the parameters used in your function, as defined in our dataset.
* The value returned by the function would map to the `outputs` field of each run in the experiment and will be accessible to your evaluator function, as we will see below.
* `ground_truths` is an optional field and, as the name suggests, contains the ground truth for each set of inputs.
Let's create a server-side Python evaluator that will simply measure the length of the model's response.
This evaluator will specifically work with events of type "model", which represent LLM completions in your application:
1. Navigate to the [**Evaluators**](https://app.honeyhive.ai/metrics) tab in the HoneyHive console.
2. Click `Add Evaluator` and select `Python Evaluator`.
You can find more information about server-side Python evaluators [here](/evaluators/python).
When creating server-side evaluators, you'll work with span attributes that are automatically passed to your evaluator function through the `event` dictionary parameter, such as `inputs`, `outputs`, or `metadata`.
For our Response Length evaluator, we are interested in the model's response, which we'll access using the `event["outputs"]["content"]` path:
```python theme={null}
def metric_name(event):
"""
Response Length Metric
Counts the number of words in the model's output. Useful for measuring verbosity,
controlling output length, and monitoring response size.
Args:
event (dict): Dictionary containing model output (and potentially other fields).
- event["outputs"]["content"] (str): The model's text output.
Returns:
int: The total number of words in the model's response.
"""
model_response = event["outputs"]["content"] # Replace this based on your specific event attributes
# Split response into words and count them
# Note: This is a simple implementation. Consider using NLTK or spaCy for more accurate tokenization.
model_words = model_response.split(" ")
return len(model_words)
```
You can find more information on model events and their properties [here](/schema-overview#model-events).
Finally, you can run your experiment with `evaluate`:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import evaluate
from your_module import function_to_evaluate
if __name__ == "__main__":
evaluate(
function = function_to_evaluate,
hh_api_key = '',
hh_project = '',
name = 'Sample Experiment',
dataset = dataset, # to be passed for code-managed datasets
# You can also provide client-side evaluators if they are already set up.
# evaluators=[sample_evaluator, ...]
)
```
## Dashboard View
You should now be able to see the `Response Length` metric in your dashboard. Note that even though we didn't
pass any local evaluators when running `evaluate`, our server-side evaluator was properly configured and executed.
## Conclusion
By following these steps, you can set up and run experiments using server-side HoneyHive evaluators.
This allows you to systematically test your LLM-based systems across various scenarios and collect performance data for analysis while providing a consistent, centralized approach to deployment, management, and versioning across environments.
## Full code
Here's a minimal example to get you started with experiments in HoneyHive:
```typescript theme={null}
import { evaluate } from "honeyhive";
import { OpenAI } from 'openai';
const openai = new OpenAI({ apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_KEY });
// Create function to be evaluated
// input -> parameter to which datapoint or json value will be passed
export async function functionToEvaluate(input: Record) {
try {
const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
model: "gpt-4",
messages: [
{
role: 'system',
content: `You are an expert analyst specializing in ${input.product_type} market trends.`
},
{
role: 'user',
content: `Could you provide an analysis of the current market performance and consumer reception of ${input.product_type} in ${input.region}? Please include any notable trends or challenges specific to this region.`
}
],
});
// Output -> session output
return response.choices[0].message;
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error making GPT-4 call:', error);
throw error;
}
}
const dataset = [
{
"product_type": "electric vehicles",
"region": "western europe",
"time_period": "first half of 2023",
"metric_1": "total revenue",
"metric_2": "market share"
},
{
"product_type": "gaming consoles",
"region": "north america",
"time_period": "holiday season 2022",
"metric_1": "units sold",
"metric_2": "gross profit margin"
},
{
"product_type": "smart home devices",
"region": "australia and new zealand",
"time_period": "fiscal year 2022-2023",
"metric_1": "customer acquisition cost",
"metric_2": "average revenue per user"
}
]
evaluate({
evaluationFunction: functionToEvaluate, // Function to be evaluated
hh_api_key: '',
hh_project: '',
name: 'Sample Experiment',
dataset: dataset // to be passed for json_list
})
```
## Running an experiment
**Prerequisites**
* You have already created a project in HoneyHive, as explained [here](/workspace/projects).
* You have an API key for your project, as explained [here](/sdk-reference/authentication).
***Expected Time***: 5 minutes
**Steps**
Let's create our dataset by inputting data directly into our code using a list of JSON objects:
```typescript theme={null}
const dataset = [
{
"parameter_1": "electric vehicles",
"parameter_2": "western europe"
},
{
"parameter_1": "gaming consoles",
"parameter_2": "north america"
},
{
"parameter_1": "smart home devices",
"parameter_2": "australia and new zealand"
}
]
```
The input fields in the dataset should map to the fields mapped in the `evaluate` function.
Define the function you want to evaluate in your experiment:
```typescript theme={null}
// Create function to be evaluated
export async function functionToEvaluate(input: Record) {
try {
const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
model: "gpt-4",
messages: [
{
role: 'system',
content: `You are an expert analyst specializing in ${input.product_type} market trends.`
},
{
role: 'user',
content: `Could you provide an analysis of the current market performance and consumer reception of ${input.product_type} in ${input.region}? Please include any notable trends or challenges specific to this region.`
}
],
});
// Output -> session output
return response.choices[0].message;
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error making GPT-4 call:', error);
throw error;
}
}
```
The value returned by the function would map to the `outputs` field of each run in the experiment.
Let's create a server-side Python evaluator that will simply measure the length of the model's response. We will:
1. Navigate to the [**Evaluators**](https://app.honeyhive.ai/metrics) tab in the HoneyHive console.
2. Click `Add Evaluator` and select `Python Evaluator`.
You can have more information about server-side Python evaluators [here](/evaluators/python).
```typescript theme={null}
import { evaluate } from "honeyhive";
import { functionToEvaluate } from "./your-module";
evaluate({
evaluationFunction: functionToEvaluate, // Direct reference since signature matches
hh_api_key: '',
hh_project: '',
name: 'Sample Experiment',
dataset: dataset, // to be passed for json_list
})
```
## Dashboard View
You should now be able to see the `Response Length` metric in your dashboard. Note that even though we didn't
pass any local evaluators when running `evaluate`, our server-side evaluator was properly configured and executed.
## Conclusion
By following these steps, you can set up and run experiments using server-side HoneyHive evaluators.
This allows you to systematically test your LLM-based systems across various scenarios and collect performance data for analysis while providing a consistent, centralized approach to deployment, management, and versioning across environments.
# Client-Side Evaluators
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluators/client_side
Learn how to use client-side evaluators for both tracing and experiments
Client-side evaluators run within your application environment, providing immediate feedback and integration with your existing infrastructure.
Evaluators can be utilized either:
* **online**: real-time metrics for live applications
* **offline**: controlled experimental environments
For online evaluation, HoneyHive enables you to [log evaluation results directly alongside your traces](/tracing/client-side-evals) at various stages of your pipeline.
For offline evaluation, evaluators are most effective when used with HoneyHive's evaluation harness, which is designed to [run and manage experiments](/evaluation/introduction) seamlessly.
## Online Evaluation
Once [tracing is set up](/introduction/quickstart) for your application, performing client-side online evaluations becomes straightforward. It simply involves enriching your traces and spans with additional context using the metrics field. This field allows you to pass any custom metric, using any of the primary data types. Metrics can be logged for any type of event and at every step of your pipeline.
For example, consider a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) scenario where you have evaluator functions implemented to assess:
a) retrieval quality,
b) model response generation, and
c) overall pipeline performance.
These metrics can be seamlessly passed alongside your traces within each relevant span, as shown below:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer, trace, enrich_span, enrich_session
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key="my-api-key",
project="my-project",
)
@trace
def get_relevant_docs(query):
medical_docs = [
"Regular exercise reduces diabetes risk by 30%. Daily walking is recommended.",
"Studies show morning exercises have better impact on blood sugar levels."
]
enrich_span(metrics={"retrieval_relevance": 0.5})
return medical_docs
@trace
def generate_response(docs, query):
prompt = f"Question: {query}\nContext: {docs}\nAnswer:"
response = "This is a test response."
enrich_span(metrics={"contains_citations": True})
return response
@trace
def rag_pipeline(query):
docs = get_relevant_docs(query)
response = generate_response(docs, query)
# Add session-level metrics
enrich_session(metrics={
"rag_pipeline": {
"num_retrieved_docs": len(docs),
"query_length": len(query.split())
}
})
return docs, response
def main():
query = "How does exercise affect diabetes?"
retrieved_docs, generated_response = rag_pipeline(query)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```
In this example, `enrich_span` is being used to add metrics on particular steps: `get_relevant_docs` and `generate_response`,
while `enrich_session` is used to set metrics that apply to the entire session or pipeline run.
You can learn more about logging external evaluation results [here](/tracing/client-side-evals).
## Offline Experiments
You can also use client-side evaluators as part of your experiments sessions. In an experiments settings, your evaluator will have access to outputs (as generated by the evaluated function), inputs and ground truth (as defined in your dataset).
You should define your evaluators with the appropriate parameter signature - they can accept one parameter (`outputs`), two parameters (`outputs`, `inputs`), or three parameters (`outputs`, `inputs`, `ground_truths`) depending on what data your evaluation logic requires.
```python theme={null}
def sample_evaluator(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
# Code here
return random.randint(1, 5)
```
By default, evaluation results are stored at the session level. The return values of evaluator functions should represent meaningful evaluation metrics, such as numerical scores, booleans, or other significant measurements.
You can use your evaluators to evaluate a target function in a controlled setting with curated datasets, like this:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import evaluate
import random
def sample_evaluator(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
# Code here
return random.randint(1, 5)
# Create function to be evaluated
# inputs -> parameter to which datapoint or json value will be passed
# (optional) ground_truths -> ground truth value for the input
def function_to_evaluate(inputs, ground_truths):
complete_prompt = f"You are an expert analyst specializing in {inputs['product_type']} market trends. Could you provide an analysis of the current market performance and consumer reception of {inputs['product_type']} in {inputs['region']}?"
response = "This is a test response."
return response
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Run experiment
evaluate(
function = function_to_evaluate, # Function to be evaluated
hh_api_key = '',
hh_project = '',
name = 'Sample Experiment',
dataset_id = '', # this example assumes the existence of a managed dataset in HoneyHive
evaluators=[sample_evaluator] # to compute client-side metrics on each run
)
```
This will run the experiment with the datapoints contained in your dataset and run the evaluation on the target function's output for each of the datapoint.
For a complete explanation of running experiments, refer to the [Experiments Quickstart Example](/evaluation/quickstart).
### Multi-step Evaluation in Experiment Runs
If your experiment involves complex, multi-step pipelines, you can log metrics either at the trace level or on a per-span level to gain more detailed insights.
In this example, we define two evaluators: `consistency_evaluator` for the main `rag_pipeline` function, and `retrieval_relevance_evaluator` for the document retrieval step. The first is passed directly to `evaluate()`, while the second is enriched within the retrieval step itself.
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import evaluate, evaluator
from honeyhive import trace, enrich_span
def retrieval_relevance_evaluator(query, docs):
# code here
avg_relevance = 0.5
return avg_relevance
@evaluator()
def consistency_evaluator(outputs, inputs, ground_truths):
# code here
consistency_score = 0.66
return consistency_score
@trace
def get_relevant_docs(query):
retrieved_docs = [
"Regular exercise reduces diabetes risk by 30%. Daily walking is recommended.",
"Studies show morning exercises have better impact on blood sugar levels."
]
retrieval_relevance = retrieval_relevance_evaluator(query, retrieved_docs)
enrich_span(metrics={"retrieval_relevance": retrieval_relevance})
return retrieved_docs
def generate_response(docs, query):
prompt = f"Question: {query}\nContext: {docs}\nAnswer:"
response = "This is a test response"
return response
def rag_pipeline(inputs, ground_truths):
query = inputs["query"]
docs = get_relevant_docs(query)
response = generate_response(docs, query)
return response
dataset = [
{
"inputs": {
"query": "How does exercise affect diabetes?",
},
"ground_truths": {
"response": "Regular exercise reduces diabetes risk by 30%. Daily walking is recommended.",
}
},
]
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Run experiment
evaluate(
function = rag_pipeline, # Function to be evaluated
hh_api_key = '',
hh_project = '',
name = 'Multi Step Evals',
dataset = dataset,
evaluators=[consistency_evaluator], # to compute client-side metrics on each run
)
```
After running this script, you should be able to see both metrics displayed in your Experiments dashboard.
## Online Evaluation
Once [tracing is set up](/introduction/quickstart) for your application, performing client-side online evaluations becomes straightforward. It simply involves enriching your traces and spans with additional context using the metrics field. This field allows you to pass any custom metric, using any of the primary data types. Metrics can be logged for any type of event and at every step of your pipeline.
For example, consider a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) scenario where you have evaluator functions implemented to assess:
a) retrieval quality,
b) model response generation, and
c) overall pipeline performance.
These metrics can be seamlessly passed alongside your traces within each relevant span, as shown below:
```typescript theme={null}
import { HoneyHiveTracer, traceTool, traceModel, traceChain, enrichSpan, enrichSession } from "honeyhive";
// Keep interfaces used in the functions
interface MedicalDocument {
docs: string[];
response: string;
}
interface RagPipelineMetrics {
num_retrieved_docs: number;
query_length: number;
}
// Initialize tracer
// Ensure HH_API_KEY and HH_PROJECT are set in your environment
const tracer = await HoneyHiveTracer.init({
sessionName: "online-client-evals",
// apiKey and project will be picked from environment variables
});
// Define the get_relevant_docs function with traceTool
const getRelevantDocs = traceTool(function getRelevantDocs(
query: string
): string[] {
const medicalDocs = [
"Regular exercise reduces diabetes risk by 30%. Daily walking is recommended.",
"Studies show morning exercises have better impact on blood sugar levels."
];
enrichSpan({
metrics: { retrieval_relevance: 0.5 }
});
return medicalDocs;
});
// Define generateResponse with traceModel (or traceTool if not an LLM call)
const generateResponse = traceModel(function generateResponse(
docs: string[],
query: string
): string {
const prompt = `Question: ${query}\nContext: ${docs}\nAnswer:`;
const response = "This is a test response.";
enrichSpan({
metrics: { contains_citations: true }
});
return response;
});
// Define ragPipeline with traceChain
const ragPipeline = traceChain(function ragPipeline(
query: string
): MedicalDocument {
const docs = getRelevantDocs(query);
const response = generateResponse(docs, query);
enrichSession({
metrics: {
rag_pipeline: {
num_retrieved_docs: docs.length,
query_length: query.split(" ").length
} as RagPipelineMetrics
}
});
return { docs, response };
});
// --- Main Execution Logic ---
// Wrap the execution in tracer.trace() to establish context
await tracer.trace(async () => {
const query = "How does exercise affect diabetes?";
await ragPipeline(query); // Assuming ragPipeline might become async
});
// Don't forget to flush the tracer if your script exits immediately after
// await tracer.flush();
```
Previously, tracing and enrichment involved calling methods directly on the `tracer` instance (e.g., `tracer.traceFunction()`, `tracer.enrichSpan()`). While this pattern still works, it is now deprecated and will be removed in a future major version.
Please update your code to use the imported functions (`traceTool`, `traceModel`, `traceChain`, `enrichSpan`, `enrichSession`) along with the `tracer.trace()` wrapper as shown in the example above. This new approach simplifies usage within nested functions by not requiring the `tracer` instance to be passed around.
Example of the **deprecated** pattern:
```typescript theme={null}
// OLD (DEPRECATED) PATTERN:
// const tracer = await HoneyHiveTracer.init({...});
// const getRelevantDocs = tracer.traceFunction()(function getRelevantDocs(...) { ... });
// tracer.enrichSpan({...});
// tracer.enrichSession({...});
```
In this example, `enrichSpan` is being used to add metrics on particular steps: `getRelevantDocs` and `generateResponse`, while `enrichSession` is used to set metrics that apply to the entire session or pipeline run.
## Offline Experiments
You can also use client-side evaluators as part of your experiments sessions. In an experiments settings, your evaluator will have access to outputs (as generated by the evaluated function), and inputs (as defined in your dataset).
You should define your evaluators with the appropriate parameter signature - they can accept two parameters (`input`, `output`), where input contains the data passed to your function and output contains the result returned by your function.
```typescript theme={null}
interface MarketAnalysisInput {
product_type: string;
region: string;
}
interface MarketAnalysisOutput {
content: string;
role: string;
}
interface EvaluatorMetrics {
sample_metric: number;
sample_metric_2: boolean;
}
export async function functionToEvaluate(input: MarketAnalysisInput): Promise {
try {
const dummyResponse: MarketAnalysisOutput = {
content: `This is a simulated analysis of ${input.product_type} in ${input.region}.
Market trends show significant growth with increasing consumer adoption.
Regional challenges include supply chain constraints and regulatory considerations.`,
role: "assistant"
};
return dummyResponse;
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error in function:', error);
throw error;
}
}
const dataset: MarketAnalysisInput[] = [
{
product_type: "electric vehicles",
region: "western europe"
},
{
product_type: "gaming consoles",
region: "north america"
}
];
function sampleEvaluator(input: MarketAnalysisInput, output: MarketAnalysisOutput): EvaluatorMetrics {
return {
sample_metric: 0.5,
sample_metric_2: true
};
}
evaluate({
evaluationFunction: functionToEvaluate,
hh_api_key: '',
hh_project: '',
name: 'Sample Experiment',
dataset: dataset,
evaluators: [sampleEvaluator],
server_url: ''
});
```
This will run the experiment with the datapoints contained in your dataset and run the evaluation on the target function's output for each of the datapoint.
For a complete explanation of running experiments, refer to the [Experiments Quickstart Example](/evaluation/quickstart).

# Composite Evaluators
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluators/composites
Technical documentation for creating and managing composite evaluators in HoneyHive
Composite evaluators in HoneyHive allow you to combine results from multiple Python, LLM, and Human evaluators into a single comprehensive score. They are particularly useful for complex multi-step pipelines where you want to measure alignment or track progress over time across various evaluation criteria.
## Creating a Composite Evaluator
1. Navigate to the **Metrics** tab in the HoneyHive console.
2. Select or create a new composite evaluator (e.g., "RAGComposite").
## Configuration
### Event Filters
You can choose to compute your evaluator over a specific `event_type` and `event_name` in your pipeline, including the root span (`session`).
### Adding Evaluators
Add individual evaluators to your composite. Select from existing Python, LLM, or Human evaluators.
### Aggregate Functions
Select one of the following aggregation methods:
#### Weighted average
Calculates the average of all component evaluator scores, taking into account their assigned weights.
Formula: `Σ(score * weight) / Σ(weights)`
Example:
* Evaluator A (weight 2, score 4)
* Evaluator B (weight 1, score 3)
Result: (4 \* 2 + 3 \* 1) / (2 + 1) = 3.67
#### Weighted sum
Sums the weighted scores of all component evaluators.
Formula: `Σ(score * weight)`
Example:
* Evaluator A (weight 2, score 4)
* Evaluator B (weight 1, score 3)
Result: (4 \* 2) + (3 \* 1) = 11
#### Hierarchical Highest True
This function is designed for boolean evaluators with associated priority levels. It determines the highest consecutive "true" score across evaluators, considering their priority order rather than their listed order.
Process:
1. Evaluators are first sorted by their priority (lower number indicates higher priority).
2. Starting from the highest priority, the function counts consecutive "true" results until it encounters a "false".
3. The priority number of the last consecutive "true" result is returned as the score.
Example:
* Evaluator A (Priority 1, result: True)
* Evaluator C (Priority 2, result: True)
* Evaluator B (Priority 3, result: False)
* Evaluator D (Priority 4, result: True)
Result: 2 (Evaluators with priority 1 and 2 were consecutively true, but priority 3 was false, so the highest priority score with consecutive true results is 2)
This is particularly useful for evaluating hierarchical criteria where higher priority conditions must be met before considering lower priority ones. It allows for a nuanced assessment of how far down the priority list the evaluation succeeded before encountering a failure.
#### Minimum
Returns the minimum score among all component evaluators, regardless of their weights.
Example:
* Evaluator A (score 4)
* Evaluator B (score 3)
* Evaluator C (score 5)
Result: 3
#### Maximum
Returns the maximum score among all component evaluators, regardless of their weights.
Example:
* Evaluator A (score 4)
* Evaluator B (score 3)
* Evaluator C (score 5)
Result: 5
## Usage Notes
* There is no limit to the number of individual evaluators that can be included in a composite evaluator.
* Weights for each component evaluator are set manually by the user.
* Composite evaluators can combine results from different types of evaluators (Python, LLM, Human) in a single score.
## Best Practices
1. Choose an appropriate aggregation function based on your evaluation needs:
* Use Weighted average or Weighted sum for a balanced overall score.
* Use Hierarchical Highest True for sequential or dependent criteria.
* Use Minimum or Maximum to focus on worst-case or best-case performance respectively.
2. Carefully consider the weights assigned to each component evaluator to reflect their relative importance.
3. When using Hierarchical Highest True, assign priorities to your evaluators based on their criticality to the overall evaluation.
4. Regularly review and adjust your composite evaluators to ensure they accurately represent your evaluation criteria as your project evolves.
5. Use composite evaluators to get a holistic view of your system's performance, but also monitor individual evaluator scores for detailed insights.
By leveraging composite evaluators, you can create nuanced, multi-faceted evaluation metrics that provide a comprehensive view of your AI system's performance across various dimensions.
# Evaluator Template List
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluators/evaluator-templates
A list of HoneyHive's server-side evaluator templates.
HoneyHive provides a list of server-side evaluator templates for some of the most commonly used metrics across autonomous agents, RAG, and other use-cases.
In this document, we will cover how to properly set up tracing in your application to ensure the required information is captured in the expected format for server-side evaluators.
Additionally, we will provide a detailed list of Python and LLM evaluator templates, complete with code examples and descriptions for each, to help you implement and customize them for your specific use case.
These templates provide ready-to-use examples. For detailed instructions on creating custom evaluators from scratch, see the [Python Evaluators](/evaluators/python) and [LLM Evaluators](/evaluators/llm) documentation.
## Configuring Tracing for Server-Side Evaluators
Server-side evaluators operate on `event` objects, so when instrumenting your application for sending traces to HoneyHive, you need to ensure
the correct event properties are being captured and traced.
For example, suppose you want to set up a **Python** evaluator that requires both the model's response and a provided ground truth, as well as an **LLM** evaluator that requires the model's response and a provided context.
In this case, you can wrap your model call within a function and enrich the event object with the necessary properties:
```python {11-12} theme={null}
from honeyhive import enrich_span, trace
@trace
def generate_response(prompt, ground_truth, context):
completion = openai_client.chat.completions.create(
model="o3-mini",
messages=[
{"role": "user", "content": prompt}
]
)
enrich_span(feedback={"ground_truth": ground_truth},
inputs={"context": context})
return completion.choices[0].message.content
```
The traced function will automatically be mapped to a `chain` event, as it groups together a `model` event within it.
The `chain` event will be named after the traced function.
When setting up an evaluator in HoneyHive for the example above, follow these steps:
1. **Select Filters**
* event type: `chain`
* event name: `generate_response`
2. **Accessing properties**
* For **Python** Evaluators:
* Access output content with `event["outputs"]["result"]`
* Access ground truth with `event["feedback"]["ground_truth"]`
* Access context with `event["inputs"]["context"]`
* For **LLM** Evaluators:
* Access output content with `{{ outputs.result }}`
* Access ground truth with `{{ feedback.ground_truth }}`
* Access context with `{{ inputs.context }}`
For instance, creating a custom Python evaluator that uses the **output** from the response along with the provided **ground truth** would look like this:
While creating an LLM custom evaluator that uses the response's **output** in combination with the provided **context** would look like this:
## Python Evaluator Templates
Remember to adjust the event attributes in the code to align with your setup, as demonstrated in the tracing section above.
### Response length
```python Python theme={null}
def metric_name(event):
"""
Response Length Metric
Counts the number of words in the model's output. Useful for measuring verbosity,
controlling output length, and monitoring response size.
Args:
event (dict): Dictionary containing model output (and potentially other fields).
- event["outputs"]["content"] (str): The model's text output.
Returns:
int: The total number of words in the model's response.
"""
model_response = event["outputs"]["content"] # Replace this based on your specific event attributes
# Split response into words and count them
# Note: This is a simple implementation. Consider using NLTK or spaCy for more accurate tokenization.
model_words = model_response.split(" ")
return len(model_words)
result = metric_name(event)
```
Measures response verbosity by counting words. Useful for controlling output length and monitoring response size.
### Semantic Similarity
```python theme={null}
def metric_name(event):
"""
Semantic Similarity Metric
Calculates semantic similarity between text fields extracted from the event
by leveraging OpenAI embeddings. Compares event["outputs"]["content"] with
event["feedback"]["ground_truth"] to produce a similarity score.
This implementation uses a dot-product similarity on embeddings obtained

## Coding Agent Evaluator Templates
These templates are designed for evaluating coding agent sessions. They classify and assess sessions across key dimensions: what kind of work was done, its strategic type, how complex it was, and how specific the developer's prompt was.
**Coding agent templates use `inputs` and `outputs` (top-level):** These evaluators assess entire coding agent sessions, so they use `{{ inputs }}` for the user prompt and `{{ outputs }}` for the agent's full session output. For example, `{{ inputs }}` might resolve to the user's prompt string, and `{{ outputs }}` to the full agent session log.
### Task Category

### Prompt Specificity
```text theme={null}
[Instruction]
Please act as an impartial judge and evaluate how specific and detailed the user's prompt to the coding agent is. Your evaluation should consider the clarity of requirements, level of detail provided, and how much ambiguity the agent must resolve on its own. Begin your evaluation by providing a brief explanation of the specificity factors present. Be as objective as possible. After providing your explanation, you must rate the prompt specificity on a scale of 1 to 5 by strictly following this format: "[[rating]]", for example: "Rating: [[5]]".
[Criteria]
Prompt Specificity: Rate how specific and actionable the user's prompt is.
1 - Very Vague: High-level goal with no details, e.g. "improve the app" or "fix the issues"
2 - Low Specificity: General direction provided but missing key details like file names, expected behavior, or acceptance criteria
3 - Moderate: Clear objective with some context, but leaves room for interpretation on implementation approach or scope
4 - High Specificity: Well-defined task with specific files, functions, or components referenced; clear expected behavior described
5 - Very Specific: Precise instructions including exact file paths, line numbers, expected inputs/outputs, edge cases, and acceptance criteria
[The Start of User Prompt]
{{ inputs }} // Replace this based on your specific event attributes
[The End of User Prompt]
[Evaluation With Rating]
```
**Prompt Specificity only uses `{{ inputs }}`:** This evaluator intentionally omits `{{ outputs }}` because it evaluates only the user's prompt, not the agent's response.
Measures how specific and actionable the developer's prompt is on a 1-5 scale.
## Multi-Agent Evaluator Templates
These templates evaluate coordination quality in multi-agent systems - how well agents hand off work, stay in scope, and produce coherent combined outputs.
**Multi-agent templates use `inputs` and `outputs` (top-level):** These evaluators assess agent handoffs, delegation plans, session traces, and assembled outputs. For example, `{{ inputs }}` might contain the agent's role definition or task context, and `{{ outputs }}` might contain the agent's actions or assembled output.
### Handoff Completeness
```text theme={null}
[Instruction]
Please act as an impartial judge and evaluate the completeness of the handoff between agents in a multi-agent system. Your evaluation should assess whether the output from one agent contains everything the downstream agent needs to continue the task. Begin your evaluation by providing a brief explanation of the handoff quality. Be as objective as possible. After providing your explanation, you must rate the handoff completeness on a scale of 1 to 5 by strictly following this format: "[[rating]]", for example: "Rating: [[5]]".
[Criteria]
Handoff Completeness: Evaluate whether the agent's output is self-contained for the next stage. Consider:
1. Context Preservation: Does the output include all relevant context, constraints, and requirements the next stage needs?
2. Explicit Assumptions: Are there implicit assumptions that were not made explicit?
3. Decision Continuity: Are any upstream decisions, rationale, or constraints dropped or lost?
4. Artifact Completeness: Are all necessary artifacts (code, data, references) included or clearly referenced?
5. State Clarity: Is the current state of the task clearly communicated, including what has been done and what remains?
1 - Severely Incomplete: Critical context, decisions, or artifacts are missing; downstream agent would fail or produce wrong results
2 - Mostly Incomplete: Multiple important pieces of context or constraints are missing; downstream agent would need to re-derive significant information
3 - Partially Complete: Core information is present but some important context, constraints, or rationale is missing
4 - Mostly Complete: Nearly all necessary information is present with only minor implicit assumptions
5 - Fully Complete: All context, constraints, decisions, artifacts, and state are explicitly communicated; downstream agent can proceed without any information gaps

3. Transition Quality: Are transitions between sections produced by different agents smooth and natural?
4. Redundancy: Is there unnecessary repetition or conflicting information across sections?
5. Unified Perspective: Does the output present a single coherent perspective rather than a patchwork of disconnected viewpoints?
1 - Incoherent: Obvious contradictions, jarring style shifts, and disjointed sections that clearly come from different sources
2 - Poorly Integrated: Multiple inconsistencies, noticeable style changes, and weak transitions between sections
3 - Partially Coherent: Generally consistent but with some noticeable seams, minor contradictions, or tonal shifts
4 - Well Integrated: Reads mostly as a unified output with only minor stylistic variations
5 - Seamlessly Coherent: Indistinguishable from a single-author output; perfectly consistent style, voice, and logic throughout

### Scope Adherence
```text theme={null}
[Instruction]
Please act as an impartial judge and evaluate whether the agent stayed within its assigned decision space and responsibilities. Your evaluation should assess whether the agent operated within its delegated authority or overstepped its bounds. Begin your evaluation by providing a brief explanation of scope adherence. Be as objective as possible. After providing your explanation, you must rate the scope adherence on a scale of 1 to 5 by strictly following this format: "[[rating]]", for example: "Rating: [[5]]".
[Criteria]
Scope Adherence: Evaluate whether the agent respected its assigned boundaries. Consider:
1. Authority Boundaries: Did the agent operate within its delegated authority and assigned responsibilities?
2. Decision Scope: Did it avoid making decisions outside its designated scope?
3. Appropriate Satisficing: Did it satisfice within its bounds rather than attempting to globally optimize beyond its competence?
4. Delegation Respect: Did it defer to other agents or escalate when encountering tasks outside its scope?
5. Focus: Did it stay focused on its assigned subtask without drifting into unrelated areas?
1 - Major Overreach: Agent significantly exceeded its scope, making unauthorized decisions or taking over responsibilities of other agents
2 - Frequent Boundary Violations: Agent regularly stepped outside its assigned scope, causing overlap or conflict with other agents
3 - Occasional Drift: Agent mostly stayed in scope but occasionally made decisions or took actions outside its authority
4 - Good Adherence: Agent stayed within scope with only minor, inconsequential boundary touches
5 - Strict Adherence: Agent operated precisely within its assigned decision space, appropriately deferring or escalating when encountering out-of-scope issues

### Escalation Appropriateness
```text theme={null}
[Instruction]
Please act as an impartial judge and evaluate whether the agent appropriately recognized and escalated situations outside its competence. Your evaluation should assess the agent's ability to detect uncertainty or anomalies and flag them before they become errors. Begin your evaluation by providing a brief explanation of the escalation behavior. Be as objective as possible. After providing your explanation, you must rate the escalation appropriateness on a scale of 1 to 5 by strictly following this format: "[[rating]]", for example: "Rating: [[5]]".
[Criteria]
Escalation Appropriateness: Evaluate whether the agent correctly identified when to escalate or flag issues. Consider:
1. Uncertainty Recognition: Did the agent recognize situations outside its competence or confidence level?
2. Timely Escalation: Did it escalate or flag issues before they became errors, rather than silently proceeding?
3. Threshold Calibration: Was the escalation threshold appropriate — not too trigger-happy (escalating trivial issues) and not too lax (missing genuine problems)?
4. Signal Quality: When escalating, did the agent provide useful context about what triggered the concern?
5. Failure Prevention: Did proactive flagging prevent downstream errors or cascading failures?
1 - Dangerous Silence: Agent proceeded through clear red flags without any escalation, causing or risking significant errors
2 - Poor Judgment: Agent missed most situations warranting escalation, or escalated so frequently that signals were meaningless
3 - Inconsistent: Agent caught some issues but missed others of similar severity; escalation threshold was unpredictable
4 - Good Judgment: Agent appropriately escalated most concerning situations with useful context; minor calibration issues
5 - Excellent Judgment: Agent demonstrated precise calibration — escalated exactly when needed with clear, actionable context; caught subtle signals that prevented downstream problems
[The Start of Agent Task and Context]

### Delegation Appropriateness
```text theme={null}
[Instruction]
Please act as an impartial judge and evaluate whether the orchestrator or planner chose the right decomposition strategy for the task's complexity. Your evaluation should assess whether the task was correctly categorized and whether the delegation approach matched the actual nature of the problem. Begin your evaluation by providing a brief explanation of the delegation strategy. Be as objective as possible. After providing your explanation, you must rate the delegation appropriateness on a scale of 1 to 5 by strictly following this format: "[[rating]]", for example: "Rating: [[5]]".
[Criteria]
Delegation Appropriateness: Evaluate whether the orchestrator matched its decomposition strategy to the task's complexity. Consider:
1. Complexity Assessment: Did the planner correctly assess whether the task is clear (simple, known solution), complicated (requires expertise but analyzable), or complex (requires exploration and adaptation)?
2. Strategy Matching: Did it apply rigid decomposition to a problem that required iterative exploration, or vice versa?
3. Dependency Awareness: Was the level of parallelism vs. sequencing appropriate to actual task dependencies?
4. Granularity: Was the decomposition at the right level — not too coarse (overloading single agents) and not too fine (creating excessive coordination overhead)?
5. Agent-Task Fit: Were subtasks assigned to agents with appropriate capabilities?
1 - Fundamentally Mismatched: Decomposition strategy is completely wrong for the task type (e.g., rigid waterfall for an exploratory problem, or probe-and-sense for a straightforward task)
2 - Poorly Matched: Strategy partially fits but creates significant unnecessary friction or misses key dependencies
3 - Adequate: Strategy is reasonable but suboptimal; some mismatch in granularity, parallelism, or agent-task fit
4 - Well Matched: Strategy fits the task well with only minor suboptimalities in decomposition or assignment
5 - Optimally Matched: Decomposition strategy precisely matches task complexity; dependencies correctly identified; agents well-matched to subtasks

Your evaluation should assess whether the agent had sufficient information to complete its task without being overloaded with irrelevant context. Begin your evaluation by providing a brief explanation of the information balance. Be as objective as possible. After providing your explanation, you must rate the information sufficiency on a scale of 1 to 5 by strictly following this format: "[[rating]]", for example: "Rating: [[5]]".
[Criteria]
Information Sufficiency: Evaluate the balance of information provided to the agent. Consider:
1. Completeness: Did the agent have all necessary information to complete its assigned task?
2. Relevance: Was the provided context focused and relevant, or was it polluted with irrelevant information?
3. Gap Handling: Did the agent hallucinate to fill information gaps instead of requesting missing information?
4. Overload Indicators: Did excessive context cause the agent to lose focus, miss key details, or produce confused output?
5. Efficiency: Could the agent have performed equally well with less context (less-is-more), or did it clearly need more?
1 - Critically Insufficient or Overloaded: Agent either lacked essential information (causing hallucination or failure) or was so overloaded with irrelevant context that output quality severely degraded
2 - Poor Balance: Significant information gaps or notable context pollution; agent struggled to compensate
3 - Adequate: Most necessary information present with moderate noise; some gaps filled by reasonable inference
4 - Good Balance: Nearly all necessary information provided with minimal irrelevant context; agent performed effectively
5 - Optimal: Precisely the right information — complete, relevant, and concise; no gaps, no noise

[The Start of Agent Output]
{{ outputs }} // Replace this based on your specific event attributes
[The End of Agent Output]
[Evaluation With Rating]
```
Checks whether agents received the right amount of context, not too much and not too little.
### Role Clarity
```text theme={null}
[Instruction]
Please act as an impartial judge and evaluate whether agents in a multi-agent system had clear, non-overlapping responsibilities. Your evaluation should assess the quality of role design and assignment across the session. Begin your evaluation by providing a brief explanation of the role clarity observed. Be as objective as possible. After providing your explanation, you must rate the role clarity on a scale of 1 to 5 by strictly following this format: "[[rating]]", for example: "Rating: [[5]]".
[Criteria]
Role Clarity: Evaluate whether the multi-agent role structure was well-defined and effective. Consider:
1. Role Definition: Did each agent have a well-defined, clearly articulated role?
2. Overlap: Was there task overlap causing redundant work between agents?
3. Coverage Gaps: Were there gaps where no agent owned a responsibility, leading to dropped tasks?
4. Capability Matching: Did role assignments match agent capabilities and strengths?
5. Boundary Clarity: Were the boundaries between roles clear enough that agents could operate independently without constant negotiation?
1 - Chaotic: No clear role definitions; agents duplicating work, dropping tasks, and stepping on each other
2 - Poorly Defined: Roles exist but are vague or significantly overlapping; frequent confusion about ownership
3 - Partially Clear: Most roles are defined but with some overlap or gaps; occasional ownership confusion
4 - Well Defined: Clear roles with minimal overlap or gaps; agents operate mostly independently
5 - Optimally Structured: Precise, non-overlapping roles perfectly matched to agent capabilities; complete coverage with no gaps; agents operate independently and efficiently
[The Start of Multi-Agent System Configuration]
{{ inputs }} // Replace this based on your specific event attributes - should contain agent role definitions
[The End of Multi-Agent System Configuration]
[The Start of Multi-Agent Session Trace]
{{ outputs }} // Replace this based on your specific event attributes
[The End of Multi-Agent Session Trace]
[Evaluation With Rating]
```
Evaluates whether agents have clear, non-overlapping responsibilities.
### Retrospective Quality
```text theme={null}
[Instruction]
Please act as an impartial judge and evaluate the quality of the agent's self-reflection or error analysis after completing a task. Your evaluation should assess whether the agent identifies root causes versus surface symptoms, and whether it questions the strategy itself (double-loop learning) or only execution errors (single-loop learning). Begin your evaluation by providing a brief explanation of the retrospective quality. Be as objective as possible. After providing your explanation, you must rate the retrospective quality on a scale of 1 to 5 by strictly following this format: "[[rating]]", for example: "Rating: [[5]]".
[Criteria]
Retrospective Quality: Evaluate the depth and usefulness of the agent's post-task reflection. Consider:
1. Root Cause Analysis: Does the reflection identify root causes rather than just surface symptoms?
2. Learning Depth: Does it question the plan or strategy itself (double-loop) or only execution errors (single-loop)?
3. Generalizability: Are the lessons learned generalizable to future tasks, or overly specific to this instance?
4. Actionability: Does the reflection produce actionable insights that could improve future performance?
5. Honesty: Does the agent accurately assess its own performance, acknowledging failures rather than rationalizing them?
1 - Absent or Superficial: No meaningful reflection, or only restates what happened without any analysis
2 - Surface-Level: Identifies what went wrong but not why; single-loop only (patches symptoms without examining strategy)
3 - Moderate: Some root cause identification and useful observations, but misses deeper strategic lessons
4 - Deep Reflection: Identifies root causes, questions strategy choices, and produces generalizable lessons
5 - Transformative: Thorough double-loop analysis that identifies systemic improvements; lessons are actionable, generalizable, and demonstrate genuine self-awareness about limitations
[The Start of Task and Context]
{{ inputs }} // Replace this based on your specific event attributes
[The End of Task and Context]
[The Start of Agent Output Including Reflection]
{{ outputs }} // Replace this based on your specific event attributes
[The End of Agent Output Including Reflection]
[Evaluation With Rating]
```
Assesses the depth of an agent's self-reflection and error analysis after completing a task.

# Introduction
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluators/introduction
An overview of HoneyHive evaluators
Evaluators are tests that measure the quality of inputs and outputs for your AI application or specific steps within it.
They serve as a crucial component for validating whether your models meet performance criteria and align with domain expertise.
Whether you're fine-tuning prompts, comparing different generative models, or monitoring production systems, evaluators help maintain high standards through systematic testing and measurement.
## Key characteristics of HoneyHive evaluators
HoneyHive provides a flexible and comprehensive evaluation framework that can be adapted to various needs and scenarios:
### Development Stages
* **Offline Evaluation**: Used during development and testing phases, including CI/CD pipelines and debugging sessions, where immediate results aren't critical. In this stage, you can build test
suites comprised of carefully curated examples of scenarios you wish to test, with or without ground truths.
* **Online Evaluation**: Applied to production systems for real-time monitoring and quality assessment of live applications, enabling real-time quality monitoring, continuous validation of model outputs, and production guardrails and safety checks.
For an example of an offline evaluation with client-side evaluators, see [how to run an experiment here](/evaluation/quickstart).
### Implementation Methods
Evaluators can be implemented using three primary methods:
* **Python Code Evaluators**: Custom functions that programmatically assess outputs based on specific criteria, such as format validation, content checks, or metric calculations.
* **LLM-Assisted Evaluators**: Leverage language models to perform qualitative assessments, such as checking for coherence, relevance, or alignment with requirements.
* **Domain Expert (Human) Evaluators**: Enable subject matter experts to provide direct feedback and assessments through the HoneyHive platform.
### Execution Environment
Evaluators can be run either locally (client-side) or remotely (server-side), each with its own set of advantages and use cases.
* **Client-Side Execution**: Evaluators run locally within your application environment, providing immediate feedback and integration with your existing infrastructure.
* Pros:
* Quick validations and guardrails
* Offline experiments and CI/CD pipelines
* Real-time format checks and PII detection
* Cons:
* Limited by local resources and lack centralized management.
Client-side evaluators can be useful in different scenarios. Here are some examples that illustrate their use:
* Refer to [Client-side Evaluators](/evaluators/client_side) to see how to use client-side evaluators for both tracing and experiments scenarios.
* Check out our tutorial on [Evaluating Advanced Reasoning Models on Putnam 2023](https://github.com/honeyhiveai/cookbook/blob/main/putnam-evaluation-python/README.md) for an example of setting up an evaluation run using a client-side LLM-as-a-Judge evaluator.
* **Server-Side Execution**: Evaluators operate remotely on HoneyHive's infrastructure.
* Pros:
* Asynchronous processing for resource-intensive tasks
* Centralized management and versioning
* Better scalability for large datasets
* Support for human evaluations and post-ingestion analysis
* Cons:
* Higher latency since results aren't immediately available.
If you want to know more about how to set up server-side Python, LLM, or Human-based evaluators, please refer to the [Python evaluator](/evaluators/python), [LLM Evaluator](/evaluators/llm), [Human Annotation](/evaluators/human) pages.
### Evaluation Scope
HoneyHive provides flexible granularity in evaluation, allowing you to:
* Assess entire end-to-end pipelines
* Evaluate individual steps within your application flow
* Monitor specific components such as model calls, tool usage, or chain execution
* Track and evaluate sessions that group multiple operations together
Consider a scenario where you have a multi-step pipeline consisting of: (a) a document retrieval step, and (b) a response generation step. By using evaluators, you can define overall metrics that apply to the entire session through the enrich\_session method:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import trace, enrich_session
@trace
def rag_pipeline(query):
docs = get_relevant_docs(query)
response = generate_response(docs, query)
# Add session-level metrics
enrich_session(metrics={
"rag_pipeline": {
"num_retrieved_docs": len(docs),
"query_length": len(query.split())
}
})
return docs, response
```
And also add metrics on each of the particular steps with `enrich_step`:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import trace, enrich_span
@trace
def get_relevant_docs(query):
medical_docs = [
"Regular exercise reduces diabetes risk by 30%. Daily walking is recommended.",
"Studies show morning exercises have better impact on blood sugar levels."
]
enrich_span(metrics={"retrieval_relevance": 0.5})
return medical_docs
@trace
def generate_response(docs, query):
prompt = f"Question: {query}\nContext: {docs}\nAnswer:"
response = "This is a test response."
enrich_span(metrics={"contains_citations": True})
return response
```
If you want to know more about how to log client-side evaluations on specific traces and spans, [explore our tracing documentation](/tracing/client-side-evals).
# LLM Evaluators
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluators/llm
Technical documentation for creating custom LLM evaluators in HoneyHive
LLM evaluators leverage large language models to assess the quality of AI-generated responses and other unstructured data operations (eg: semantic retrieval) based on custom criteria.
## Creating an LLM Evaluator
1. Navigate to the [**Evaluators**](https://app.honeyhive.ai/metrics) tab in the HoneyHive console.
2. Click `Add Evaluator` and select `LLM Evaluator`.
HoneyHive's server-side LLM evaluators are powered by OpenAI's `gpt-4o` model.
## Event Schema
The base unit of data in HoneyHive is called an `event`, which represents a span in a trace. A root event in a trace is of the type `session`, while all non-root events in a trace can be of 3 core types - `model`, `tool` and `chain`.
All events have a parent-child relationship, except `session` event, which being a root event does not have any parents.
* `session`: A root event used to group together multiple `model`, `tool`, and `chain` events into a single trace. This is achieved by having a common `session_id` across all children.
* `model` events: Used to track the execution of any LLM requests.
* `tool` events: Used to track execution of any deterministic functions like requests to vector DBs, requests to an external API, regex parsing, document reranking, and more.
* `chain` events: Used to group together multiple `model` and `tool` events into composable units that can be evaluated and monitored independently. Typical examples of chains include retrieval pipelines, post-processing pipelines, and more.
For the purpose of setting evaluators, we'll focus on the following event properties:
* `event_type`: The type of event. Can be `model`, `tool`, `chain`, or `session`.
* `event_name`: The name of the event or session. This can be used to identify a specific event or session you want to evaluate.
* `inputs`: The inputs to the event or session. This can be the prompt, chat history, dynamic insertion variables in your prompt template, query for your retrieval pipeline, etc.
* `output`: The output of the event or session. This can be a completion, a vector DB response, an API response, etc.
* `feedback`: A JSON object presenting user feedback for the event. This object also contains `Ground Truth`.
You can quickly explore the available event properties when creating an evaluator by clicking `Show Schema` in the evaluator console.
## Evaluation Prompt
Define your evaluation prompt:
```markdown theme={null}
[Instruction]
Evaluate the AI assistant's answer based on:
1. Relevance to the question
2. Accuracy of information
3. Clarity and coherence
4. Completeness of the answer
Provide a brief explanation and rate the response on a scale of 1 to 5.
[Question]
{{inputs.question}}
[Context]
{{inputs.context}}
[AI Assistant's Answer]
{{outputs.content}}
[Evaluation]
Explanation:
Rating: [[X]]
```
Use `{{}}` to reference event properties in your prompt.
Looking for ready-made examples? Check out our [list of LLM Evaluator Templates.](/evaluators/evaluator-templates)
## Configuration
### Return Type
* `Boolean`: For true/false evaluations
* `Numeric`: For numeric scores or ratings
* `String`: For categorical evals or other objects
### Passing Range
Passing ranges are useful in order to be able to detect which test cases failed in your evaluation. This is particularly useful for defining pass/fail criteria on a datapoint level in your CI builds.
### Online Evaluation
Toggle to enable real-time evaluation in production. We define production as any traces where `source != evaluation` when initializing the tracer.
### Enable sampling
Sampling allows us to run our evaluator over a smaller percentage of events from production.
This helps minimize costs while still providing valuable insights about the performance of our application.
When deploying evaluators in production or staging environments, be sure to select an appropriate sampling rate based on your estimated event ingestion rate to maintain optimal performance and cost efficiency.
We'll choose to set sampling percentage to 25% in this example.
Sampling only applies to events where `source` **is not** `evaluation` or `playground`, i.e. typically only production or staging environments. You **can not** sample events when running offline evaluations.
## Event Filters
You can choose to compute your evaluator over a specific event type and event name, or over all sessions or a particular session name if you’re looking to evaluate properties that are spread across an entire trace.
## Validating the evaluator
LLM evaluators can often be unreliable and need validation and alignment with your own judgement before you can deploy them. You can quickly test your evaluator with the built-in IDE by either defining your datapoint to test against in the JSON editor, or retrieving 5 most recent events from your project to test your evaluator against.
Save your evaluator by clicking `Create` in the top right corner.
# Python Evaluators
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluators/python
Technical documentation for creating custom Python evaluators in HoneyHive
Python evaluators allow you to create custom evaluations for any steps in your pipeline using Python code.
## Creating a Python Evaluator
1. Navigate to the [**Evaluators**](https://app.honeyhive.ai/metrics) tab in the HoneyHive console.
2. Click `Add Evaluator` and select `Python Evaluator`.
HoneyHive's server-side Python evaluators have access to Python's complete standard library and popular third-party packages including `pandas`, `scikit-learn`, `jsonschema`, `sqlglot`, and `requests`
## Event Schema
Python evaluators operate on `event` objects. Key properties include:
* `event_type`: Type of event (e.g., "model", "tool", "chain", "session")
* `event_name`: Name of the specific event
* `inputs`: Input data for the event
* `outputs`: Output data from the event
* `feedback`: User feedback and ground truth data
- `event_type`: The type of event. Can be `model`, `tool`, `chain`, or `session`.
- `event_name`: The name of the event or session.
- `inputs`: The inputs to the event or session.
- `output`: The output of the event or session.
- `feedback`: A JSON object presenting user feedback for the event.
Use `Show Schema` in the evaluator console to explore available event properties.
## Evaluator Function
Define your evaluation logic in a Python function:
```python theme={null}
def check_unwanted_phrases(event):
unwanted_phrases = ["As an AI language model", "I'm sorry, but I can't", "I don't have personal opinions"]
model_completion = event["outputs"]["content"]
return not any(phrase.lower() in model_completion.lower() for phrase in unwanted_phrases)
result = check_unwanted_phrases(event)
```
Looking for ready-made examples? Check out our [list of Python Evaluator Templates.](/evaluators/evaluator-templates)
When using Python evaluators, keep in mind the ideal resource limits: 1GB memory and a 30-second timeout for execution.
Ensure your code is optimized to stay within these constraints for smooth performance.
## Configuration
### Return Type
* `Boolean`: For true/false evaluations
* `Numeric`: For numeric scores or ratings
* `String`: For categorical evals or other objects
### Passing Range
Passing ranges are useful in order to be able to detect which test cases failed in your evaluation. This is particularly useful for defining pass/fail criteria on a datapoint level in your CI builds.
### Online Evaluation
Toggle to enable real-time evaluation in production. We define production as any traces where `source != evaluation` when initializing the tracer.
## Event Filters
You can choose to compute your evaluator over a specific `event_type` and `event_name` in your pipeline, including the root span (`session`).
## Testing
You can quickly test your evaluator with the built-in IDE by either defining your datapoint to test against in the JSON editor, or retrieving any recent events from your project to test your evaluator against.
Commit and deploy your evaluator by clicking `Commit` in the top right corner.
# Version Control
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/evaluators/versioning
How to manage and version control your custom evaluators in HoneyHive
HoneyHive provides git-based version control for custom evaluators, allowing you to track changes, roll back to previous versions, and manage evaluator evolution.
## Creating a new version
When you create an evaluator and save it for the first time, we initialize version tracking on that evaluator.
If you have existing evaluators in your tenant, the latest evaluator version will be committed automatically the first time you open it.
## Updating your evaluator
## Rolling back to a previous version
When rolling back to a previous version, a commit message is not required.
## Best practices
1. **Descriptive commit messages**: Always provide clear and concise commit messages that explain the changes made in each version.
2. **Regular updates**: Keep your evaluators up-to-date by making small, incremental changes rather than large, sweeping updates.
3. **Testing**: Before deploying a new version to production, test it thoroughly to ensure it functions as expected.
By following these best practices and utilizing the Evaluator Version Management feature, you can effectively manage and control the evolution of your custom evaluators in HoneyHive.

# AWS Bedrock
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/integrations/aws_bedrock
Learn how to integrate AWS Bedrock with HoneyHive
# Comprehensive Guide to Tracing AWS Bedrock with HoneyHive
AWS Bedrock gives you access to powerful foundation models (FMs) from Amazon and leading AI companies. This guide demonstrates how to implement tracing with HoneyHive to monitor and evaluate your AWS Bedrock applications.
## Introduction to Tracing Types
HoneyHive provides four primary types of traces that work together to give you comprehensive visibility into your AWS Bedrock applications:
### 1. Model Invocation Traces
Model invocation traces capture each interaction with an AWS Bedrock model, recording:
* Input prompts and parameters
* Output responses
* Latency and token usage metrics
* Error information (if any occurs)
* Model-specific parameters
In our cookbook examples, model invocation traces are automatically captured when you make AWS Bedrock API calls like `invoke_model` and `converse`.
### 2. Function/Span Traces
Function traces (or spans) track the execution of specific functions in your code:
* Function inputs and outputs
* Execution duration
* Parent-child relationships between functions
* Custom metrics you define
The `@trace` decorator is used to create function traces, as shown in all examples in our cookbook.
### 3. Session Traces
Session traces represent an entire user interaction or workflow:
* Group all related model invocations and function traces
* Maintain contextual information across multiple operations
* Provide a complete picture of a user journey or request
Sessions are created when you initialize the HoneyHive tracer at the beginning of your application.
### 4. Custom Event Traces
Custom event traces let you track specific events or add metrics to any trace:
* Business-specific metrics
* User feedback events
* Custom application states
* Performance metrics
## Quickstart Guide
### Installation
First, install the required dependencies:
```bash theme={null}
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
The [requirements.txt](requirements.txt) file includes:
```
boto3>=1.28.0
honeyhive>=0.1.0
python-dotenv>=1.0.0
```
### Configuration
Create a `.env` file based on the [.env.example](.env.example) template:
```
# AWS Credentials
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_aws_access_key
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_aws_secret_key
AWS_REGION=us-east-1
# HoneyHive Configuration
HONEYHIVE_API_KEY=your_honeyhive_api_key
```
### Basic Usage Pattern
The basic pattern for tracing AWS Bedrock with HoneyHive follows these steps:
1. Initialize the HoneyHive tracer
2. Decorate functions with `@trace`
3. Make AWS Bedrock API calls
4. Optionally add custom metrics
5. Traces are automatically sent to HoneyHive
## Detailed Examples
### Listing Bedrock Models with Tracing
The [bedrock\_list\_models.py](bedrock_list_models.py) example demonstrates:
* Initializing the HoneyHive tracer
* Using the `@trace` decorator for function tracing
* Making AWS Bedrock API calls to list available foundation models
Key code sections:
```python theme={null}
# Initialize HoneyHive tracer
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key=os.getenv("HONEYHIVE_API_KEY"),
project="aws-bedrock-examples",
source="dev",
session_name="list-bedrock-models"
)
@trace
def list_foundation_models(bedrock_client):
try:
response = bedrock_client.list_foundation_models()
models = response["modelSummaries"]
logger.info("Got %s foundation models.", len(models))
return models
except Exception as e:
logger.error("Couldn't list foundation models: %s", str(e))
raise
```
### Text Generation with InvokeModel API
The [bedrock\_invoke\_model.py](bedrock_invoke_model.py) example shows:
* Tracing text generation with the InvokeModel API
* Structured error handling with tracing
* Parameter configuration for model invocation
Key code sections:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def invoke_bedrock_model(model_id, prompt, max_tokens=512, temperature=0.5, top_p=0.9):
# Create an Amazon Bedrock Runtime client
bedrock_runtime = boto3.client(
"bedrock-runtime",
region_name=os.getenv("AWS_REGION", "us-east-1")
)
# Format the request payload using the model's native structure
native_request = {
"inputText": prompt,
"textGenerationConfig": {
"maxTokenCount": max_tokens,
"temperature": temperature,
"topP": top_p
},
}
# Invoke the model and handle the response
# [... implementation details ...]
```
### Conversation Tracing with Converse API
The [bedrock\_converse.py](bedrock_converse.py) example demonstrates:
* Tracing multi-turn conversations
* Using the more advanced Converse API
* Maintaining conversation context across turns
Key code sections:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def multi_turn_conversation(model_id):
# Create an Amazon Bedrock Runtime client
bedrock_runtime = boto3.client(
"bedrock-runtime",
region_name=os.getenv("AWS_REGION", "us-east-1")
)
# Start with an empty conversation
conversation = []
# First turn
user_message = "What are three key benefits of cloud computing?"
conversation.append({
"role": "user",
"content": [{"text": user_message}],
})
# Get the model's response and build the conversation history
# [... implementation details ...]
# Second turn
user_message = "Can you elaborate on scalability?"
# [... remaining implementation ...]

# Azure OpenAI HoneyHive Tracing Quickstart
This guide provides a comprehensive overview of tracing Azure OpenAI API calls using HoneyHive, with practical examples for different tracing scenarios.
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have:
* Python 3.8+
* An Azure OpenAI resource with API access
* A HoneyHive API key
### Installation
Install the required packages:
```bash theme={null}
pip install openai honeyhive pydantic
```
### Environment Setup
Create a `.env` file with your API credentials:
```bash theme={null}
HONEYHIVE_API_KEY=your_honeyhive_api_key
AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=your_azure_openai_api_key
AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT=https://your-endpoint.openai.azure.com
AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION=2023-07-01-preview
GPT4_DEPLOYMENT_NAME=your-gpt4-deployment-name
```
## Basic Configuration
Here's how to initialize HoneyHive tracing and the Azure OpenAI client:
```python theme={null}
import os
from openai import AzureOpenAI
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer, trace
# Initialize HoneyHive tracer
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key=os.getenv("HONEYHIVE_API_KEY"),
project="Azure-OpenAI-traces"
)
# Initialize Azure OpenAI client
client = AzureOpenAI(
api_version=os.getenv("AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION", "2023-07-01-preview"),
azure_endpoint=os.getenv("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT"),
)
```
## Tracing Types
### 1. Basic Chat Completions
The simplest form of tracing captures basic chat completions with the Azure OpenAI API:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def basic_chat_completion():
"""Make a simple chat completion call to Azure OpenAI API."""
try:
# This call will be automatically traced by HoneyHive
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="deployment-name", # Replace with your actual deployment name
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "What is the capital of France?"}
],
temperature=0.7,
max_tokens=150
)
# Return the response content
return response.choices[0].message.content
except Exception as e:
# Errors will be captured in the trace
print(f"Error: {e}")
raise
```
### 2. Function Calling Traces
Trace function calling with tools and handling of tool responses:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def basic_function_calling():
"""
Demonstrate basic function calling with Azure OpenAI API.
The model will decide when to call the function based on the user query.
"""
# Define the tools (functions) the model can use
tools = [
{
"type": "function",
"function": {
"name": "get_weather",
"description": "Get the current weather in a specified location",
"parameters": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"location": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The city and country, e.g., 'San Francisco, CA' or 'Paris, France'"
},
"unit": {
"type": "string",
"enum": ["celsius", "fahrenheit"],
"description": "The temperature unit to use. Default is celsius."
}
},
"required": ["location"]
}
}
}
]
# Make a request to the Azure OpenAI API
messages = [
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "What's the weather like in Paris today?"}
]
# This API call will be traced by HoneyHive
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="deployment-name", # Replace with your actual deployment name
messages=messages,
tools=tools,
tool_choice="auto"
)
# Continue processing the response...
```
### 3. Structured Output Traces
Trace structured outputs using response formats:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def get_structured_json():
"""Get a structured JSON response using the response_format parameter."""
try:
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="deployment-name", # Replace with your actual deployment name
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant that provides weather information."},
{"role": "user", "content": "What's the weather like in New York today?"}
],
response_format={"type": "json_object"}
)
return response.choices[0].message.content
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
raise
```
You can also trace Pydantic model parsing:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def get_weather_structured_output(location: str):
"""Get structured weather information for a location using Pydantic."""
try:
completion = client.beta.chat.completions.parse(
model="deployment-name", # Replace with your actual deployment name
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant that provides weather information."},
{"role": "user", "content": f"What's the weather like in {location} today?"}
],
response_format=WeatherInfo
)
# The parsed attribute contains the structured data
weather_info = completion.choices[0].message.parsed
return weather_info
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
raise
```
### 4. Multi-Turn Conversation Traces
Track conversations across multiple turns:
```python theme={null}
class Conversation:
"""
Class to manage a conversation with the Azure OpenAI API.
Each turn in the conversation is traced by HoneyHive.
"""
def __init__(self, system_message="You are a helpful assistant."):
self.messages = [{"role": "system", "content": system_message}]
self.turn_count = 0
@trace
def add_user_message(self, content):
"""Add a user message to the conversation and get the assistant's response."""
# Increment turn count
self.turn_count += 1
# Add user message to the conversation
self.messages.append({"role": "user", "content": content})
try:
# Get assistant response
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="deployment-name", # Replace with your actual deployment name
messages=self.messages,
temperature=0.7,
max_tokens=150
)
# Process response...
```
Usage example:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def run_rich_conversation():
"""Run a multi-turn conversation with the assistant on various topics."""
# Initialize conversation with a broad system message
conversation = Conversation(
system_message="You are a knowledgeable assistant able to discuss a wide range of topics."
)
# First turn
turn1 = conversation.add_user_message("Can you tell me about the Apollo 11 mission?")
# Second turn
turn2 = conversation.add_user_message("What were the names of the astronauts on that mission?")
# Third turn
turn3 = conversation.add_user_message("Let's switch topics. Can you explain how photosynthesis works?")
# And so on...
```
### 5. Reasoning Model Traces
Trace model behavior for complex reasoning tasks with temperature control:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def call_reasoning_model_math():
"""
Demonstrate calling a reasoning-capable model for math problems and trace the request/response.
Note: Use your Azure OpenAI deployed model that supports advanced reasoning.
"""
try:
# Complex math problem that benefits from reasoning capability
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4-deployment", # Replace with your actual GPT-4 deployment name
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful math assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "Solve this step by step: Integrate x^3 * ln(x) with respect to x."}
],
temperature=0.1 # Lower temperature for more precise reasoning
)
# Extract the response and the usage information
content = response.choices[0].message.content
return {
"content": content,
"usage": {
"prompt_tokens": response.usage.prompt_tokens,
"completion_tokens": response.usage.completion_tokens,
"total_tokens": response.usage.total_tokens
}
}
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
raise
```

# CrewAI
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/integrations/crewai
This guide explains how to integrate HoneyHive with CrewAI for tracing and monitoring your AI agent workflows.
## Introduction
[CrewAI](https://www.crewai.com/) is a framework for orchestrating role-playing autonomous AI agents. By integrating CrewAI with HoneyHive, you can trace and monitor your agent interactions, enabling better visibility, evaluation, and improvement of your agent workflows.
## Prerequisites
* A HoneyHive account
* A CrewAI project
* A HoneyHive API key
```bash theme={null}
pip install crewai honeyhive python-dotenv openai
```
## Initializing HoneyHive Tracer
Use the following code to initialize HoneyHive tracing in your CrewAI project:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer, trace
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
# Load environment variables
load_dotenv()
# Initialize HoneyHive Tracer
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key=os.getenv("HONEYHIVE_API_KEY"),
project=os.getenv("HONEYHIVE_PROJECT_NAME", "crewai-demo"),
source=os.getenv("HONEYHIVE_SOURCE", "dev"),
session_name="your-crewai-session-name"
)
```
This initializes auto-tracing for your CrewAI application. You can customize the session name to organize your traces logically.
## Using the `@trace` Decorator
HoneyHive provides a `@trace` decorator that you can use to trace specific functions in your CrewAI workflow:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import trace
@trace
def create_agents():
# Your agent creation logic here
pass
@trace
def create_tasks(agents, research_topic):
# Your task creation logic here
pass
@trace
def run_crew(agents, tasks):
# Your crew execution logic here
pass
```
By decorating key functions with `@trace`, you can create a hierarchical trace structure that reflects your CrewAI workflow.
## Required Environment Variables
Make sure to set the following environment variables before running your application:
* `HONEYHIVE_API_KEY`: Your HoneyHive API key
* `HONEYHIVE_PROJECT_NAME`: The name of your HoneyHive project (defaults to "crewai-demo" in the example)
* `HONEYHIVE_SOURCE`: The source of your traces (defaults to "dev" in the example)
You can use a `.env` file and the `python-dotenv` package to manage these environment variables.
For the most up-to-date compatibility information, please refer to the HoneyHive documentation.
## Enriching Properties
For information on how to enrich your traces and spans with additional context, see [our enrichment documentation](/tracing/enrich-traces).
## Adding Evaluators
Once traces have been logged in the HoneyHive platform, you can then run evaluations with [Python or TypeScript](/evaluation/quickstart).
## Complete Example
Below is a complete example demonstrating how to integrate HoneyHive tracing with a CrewAI workflow:
```python theme={null}
import os
from typing import Dict, Any
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew, Process
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer, trace
# Load environment variables
load_dotenv()
# Initialize HoneyHive Tracer
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key=os.getenv("HONEYHIVE_API_KEY"),
project=os.getenv("HONEYHIVE_PROJECT_NAME", "crewai-demo"),
source=os.getenv("HONEYHIVE_SOURCE", "dev"),
session_name="crewai-research-crew"
)
@trace
def create_agents() -> Dict[str, Agent]:
"""Create and return a dictionary of agents with specific roles."""
researcher = Agent(
role="Research Analyst",
goal="Conduct comprehensive research on the given topic",
backstory="You're a senior research analyst with expertise in gathering and analyzing information from various sources.",
verbose=True,
allow_delegation=False,
)
writer = Agent(
role="Content Writer",
goal="Create well-structured, informative content based on research findings",
backstory="You're an experienced content writer known for your ability to transform complex information into clear, engaging content.",
verbose=True,
allow_delegation=False,
)
return {"researcher": researcher, "writer": writer}
@trace
def create_tasks(agents: Dict[str, Agent], research_topic: str) -> Dict[str, Task]:
"""Create and return a dictionary of tasks for the agents."""
research_task = Task(
description=f"Research the following topic thoroughly: {research_topic}. Find key information, statistics, and expert opinions.",
expected_output="A comprehensive research document with key findings, statistics, and expert opinions.",
agent=agents["researcher"]
)
writing_task = Task(
description=f"Using the research provided, create a well-structured article about {research_topic}.",
expected_output="A well-structured, comprehensive article ready for publication.",
agent=agents["writer"],
context=[research_task]
)
return {"research_task": research_task, "writing_task": writing_task}
@trace
def run_crew(agents: Dict[str, Agent], tasks: Dict[str, Task]) -> str:
"""Create and run a crew with the given agents and tasks."""
crew = Crew(
agents=list(agents.values()),
tasks=[tasks["research_task"], tasks["writing_task"]],
process=Process.sequential,
verbose=True
)
return crew.kickoff()
@trace
def main() -> None:
"""Main function to run the CrewAI demonstration with HoneyHive tracing."""
# Define the research topic
research_topic = "The impact of artificial intelligence on healthcare"
# Create agents and tasks
agents = create_agents()
tasks = create_tasks(agents, research_topic)
# Run the crew and get the result
result = run_crew(agents, tasks)
# Print the final result
print("\n=== FINAL RESULT ===\n")
print(result)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```
## What Gets Traced
When you use HoneyHive with CrewAI, the following information is traced:
* **Agent Creation**: Details about the agents' roles, goals, and backstories
* **Task Creation**: Task descriptions, expected outputs, and agent assignments
* **Crew Execution**: The entire workflow of the crew, including all agent interactions
* **Function Calls**: Any function decorated with `@trace` will have its inputs and outputs traced
This tracing allows you to:
1. Visualize your CrewAI workflow in the HoneyHive dashboard
2. Analyze agent performance and interactions
3. Debug issues in your agent workflows
4. Evaluate the quality of agent outputs
5. Monitor the execution time of different components
## Conclusion
By integrating HoneyHive with CrewAI, you gain powerful tracing and monitoring capabilities for your AI agent workflows. This enables you to build more robust, reliable, and effective multi-agent systems.

# LanceDB
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/integrations/lancedb
Learn how to integrate LanceDB with HoneyHive for vector database monitoring, tracing, and retrieval evaluations.
## LanceDB
LanceDB is an open-source vector database built for AI applications and similarity search. By integrating LanceDB with HoneyHive, you can:
* Trace vector database operations
* Monitor latency, embedding quality, and context relevance
* Evaluate retrieval performance in your RAG pipelines
* Optimize paramaters such as `chunk_size` or `chunk_overlap`
## Prerequisites
* A HoneyHive account and API key
* Python 3.8+
* Basic understanding of vector databases and RAG pipelines
## Installation
Install the required packages:
```bash theme={null}
pip install lancedb honeyhive sentence-transformers openai pandas
```
## Basic Integration Example
The following example demonstrates a complete RAG pipeline with HoneyHive tracing for LanceDB operations. We'll break down each component step by step.
### Step 1: Initialize Clients and Setup
First, set up the necessary clients and configuration for HoneyHive, OpenAI, and LanceDB:
```python theme={null}
import os
import sys
import logging
import pandas as pd
import lancedb
from lancedb.pydantic import LanceModel, Vector
from lancedb.embeddings import get_registry
import openai
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer, trace
from typing import List, Dict, Any
# Configure logging
logging.basicConfig(
level=logging.INFO,
format='%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s',
handlers=[
logging.FileHandler("rag_pipeline.log"),
logging.StreamHandler(sys.stdout)
]
)
logger = logging.getLogger("lancedb_rag")
# Initialize HoneyHive tracer
HONEYHIVE_API_KEY = os.environ.get("HONEYHIVE_API_KEY", "your honeyhive api key")
HONEYHIVE_PROJECT = os.environ.get("HONEYHIVE_PROJECT", "your honeyhive project name")
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key=HONEYHIVE_API_KEY,
project=HONEYHIVE_PROJECT,
source="dev",
session_name="lancedb_rag_session"
)
# Set OpenAI API key
OPENAI_API_KEY = os.environ.get("OPENAI_API_KEY", "your openai api key")
openai.api_key = OPENAI_API_KEY
```
### Step 2: Define Document Class
Create a simple document class to hold text chunks:
```python theme={null}
class Document:
"""Simple document class to hold text chunks."""
def __init__(self, text: str, metadata: Dict[str, Any] = None):
self.text = text
self.metadata = metadata or {}
```
### Step 3: Load and Process Documents with Tracing
Create functions to load and chunk documents with HoneyHive tracing:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def load_documents(file_path: str) -> List[Document]:
"""
Load documents from a text file.
Each line is treated as a separate document.
"""
logger.info(f"Loading documents from {file_path}")
documents = []
try:
with open(file_path, 'r') as f:
lines = f.readlines()
for i, line in enumerate(lines):
if line.strip(): # Skip empty lines
doc = Document(
text=line.strip(),
metadata={"source": file_path, "line_number": i}
)
documents.append(doc)
logger.info(f"Loaded {len(documents)} documents")
return documents
except Exception as e:
logger.error(f"Error loading documents: {e}")
raise
@trace
def chunk_documents(documents: List[Document], chunk_size: int = 1000) -> List[str]:
"""
Split documents into smaller chunks.
"""
logger.info(f"Chunking {len(documents)} documents with chunk size {chunk_size}")
chunks = []
for doc in documents:
text = doc.text
# Simple chunking by character count
if len(text) <= chunk_size:
chunks.append(text)
else:
# Split into chunks of approximately chunk_size characters
for i in range(0, len(text), chunk_size):
chunk = text[i:i + chunk_size]
chunks.append(chunk)
logger.info(f"Created {len(chunks)} chunks")
return chunks
```
The `@trace` decorator logs these operations to HoneyHive, capturing metadata about document loading and chunking processes.
### Step 4: Create LanceDB Table with Tracing
Set up a LanceDB table with embeddings:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def create_lancedb_table(chunks: List[str], table_name: str = "docs"):
"""
Create a LanceDB table with embeddings.
"""
logger.info(f"Creating LanceDB table '{table_name}' with {len(chunks)} chunks")
# Connect to LanceDB
db = lancedb.connect("/tmp/lancedb")
# Get embedding model
model = get_registry().get("sentence-transformers").create(
name="BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5",
device="cpu"
)
# Define schema
class Docs(LanceModel):
text: str = model.SourceField()
vector: Vector(model.ndims()) = model.VectorField()
# Create table
df = pd.DataFrame({'text': chunks})
# Check if table exists and drop if it does
if table_name in db.table_names():
db.drop_table(table_name)
# Create new table
table = db.create_table(table_name, schema=Docs)
# Add data
table.add(data=df)
logger.info(f"Created table '{table_name}' with {len(chunks)} rows")
return table
```
This function creates a LanceDB table and adds document chunks with embeddings. The `@trace` decorator logs information about the embedding model used and table creation process.
### Step 5: Retrieve Documents with Tracing
Create a function to retrieve relevant documents from LanceDB:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def retrieve_documents(query: str, table_name: str = "docs", limit: int = 3):
"""
Retrieve relevant documents from LanceDB.
"""
logger.info(f"Retrieving documents for query: '{query}'")
# Connect to LanceDB
db = lancedb.connect("/tmp/lancedb")
# Get table
table = db.open_table(table_name)
# Search
results = table.search(query).limit(limit).to_list()
logger.info(f"Retrieved {len(results)} documents")
return results
```
The `@trace` decorator logs information about the retrieval process, including the query and number of results.
### Step 6: Generate Response with Tracing
Create a function to generate a response using OpenAI with tracing:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def generate_answer(query: str, context: List[Dict[str, Any]]):
"""
Generate an answer using OpenAI's API.
"""
logger.info(f"Generating answer for query: '{query}'")
# Extract text from context
context_text = "\n\n".join([item["text"] for item in context])
# Create prompt
prompt = f"""
Answer the following question based on the provided context:
Context:
{context_text}
Question: {query}
Answer:
"""
# Call OpenAI API
response = openai.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-3.5-turbo",
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant that answers questions based on the provided context."},
{"role": "user", "content": prompt}
],
temperature=0.3,
max_tokens=500
)
answer = response.choices[0].message.content
logger.info(f"Generated answer: '{answer[:100]}...'")
return answer
```
This function generates a response using OpenAI based on the retrieved documents. The `@trace` decorator logs information about the generation process.
### Step 7: Complete RAG Pipeline with Tracing
Create a function that combines all the previous steps into a complete RAG pipeline:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def rag_pipeline(query: str, data_path: str):
"""
End-to-end RAG pipeline.
"""
logger.info(f"Starting RAG pipeline for query: '{query}'")
# 1. Load documents
documents = load_documents(data_path)
# 2. Chunk documents
chunks = chunk_documents(documents)
# 3. Create vector store
table = create_lancedb_table(chunks)
# 4. Retrieve relevant documents
results = retrieve_documents(query)
# 5. Generate answer
answer = generate_answer(query, results)
logger.info("RAG pipeline completed successfully")
return answer
```
The `@trace` decorator logs the entire RAG pipeline process, creating a parent span that contains all the child spans from the individual functions.
### Step 8: Run the Example
Finally, create a main function to run the example:
```python theme={null}
def main():
"""
Main function to demonstrate the RAG pipeline.
"""
# Sample data path - replace with your actual data file
data_path = "data/sample_data.txt"
# Create sample data if it doesn't exist
os.makedirs(os.path.dirname(data_path), exist_ok=True)
if not os.path.exists(data_path):
with open(data_path, 'w') as f:
f.write("LanceDB is a vector database for AI applications.\n")
f.write("It provides high-performance vector search capabilities.\n")
f.write("LanceDB can be used for RAG applications to improve LLM responses.\n")
f.write("RAG stands for Retrieval Augmented Generation.\n")
f.write("Vector databases store embeddings which are numerical representations of data.\n")
# Sample query
query = "What is LanceDB and how can it be used for RAG?"
# Run RAG pipeline
answer = rag_pipeline(query, data_path)
print("\n=== Final Answer ===")
print(answer)
# End HoneyHive tracing session
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key=HONEYHIVE_API_KEY,
project=HONEYHIVE_PROJECT,
source="dev",
session_name="new_session" # This ends the previous session and starts a new one
)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```

# LangChain
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/integrations/langchain
This guide explains how to integrate HoneyHive with LangChain for both Python and TypeScript implementations.
## Initializing HoneyHive Tracer
Use the following code to initialize HoneyHive tracing in your project:
To use our custom LangChain tracer, please install our langchain package, `pip install honeyhive[langchain]`.
For Python projects, use the `HoneyHiveTracer` class to initialize tracing:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer
import os
HoneyHiveTracer.init(api_key=os.environ["HH_API_KEY"], project=os.environ["HH_PROJECT"])
```
This initializes auto-tracing for your entire Python application.
For TypeScript projects, use the `HoneyHiveLangChainTracer` class to create a tracer instance:
```typescript theme={null}
import { HoneyHiveLangChainTracer } from 'honeyhive';
const tracer = new HoneyHiveLangChainTracer({
project: process.env.HH_PROJECT,
sessionName: process.env.HH_SESSION_NAME,
apiKey: process.env.HH_API_KEY,
});
```
You'll need to pass this tracer instance to the LangChain components you want to trace.
If you're using these code examples verbatim, then make sure to set the appropriate environment variables (`HH_API_KEY`, `HH_PROJECT`, and for TypeScript, `HH_SESSION_NAME`) before running your application.
## Supported LangChain Versions/Interfaces
* Python: Compatible with LangChain versions `^0.2.0` and above.
* JavaScript: Compatible with LangChain versions `^0.2.0` and above.
For the most up-to-date compatibility information, please refer to the HoneyHive documentation.
## Nesting
Nesting is handled automatically by the HoneyHive tracing system. When you use traced components within other traced components, the system will create a hierarchical structure of spans, reflecting the nested nature of your LangChain operations.
## Enriching Properties
For information on how to enrich your traces and spans with additional context, see [our enrichment documentation](/tracing/enrich-traces).
## Adding Evaluators
Once traces have been logged in the HoneyHive platform, you can then run evaluations with either [Python or TypeScript](/evaluation/quickstart).
## Cookbook Examples
### Python Example
```python theme={null}
import os
from langchain.document_loaders import TextLoader
from langchain.text_splitter import RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter
from langchain.vectorstores import FAISS
from langchain.embeddings import OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain.chains import RetrievalQA
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer
HoneyHiveTracer.init(api_key=os.environ["HH_API_KEY"], project=os.environ["HH_PROJECT"])
# Load the document
loader = TextLoader('state_of_the_union.txt')
documents = loader.load()
# Split the document into chunks
text_splitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=1000, chunk_overlap=200)
docs = text_splitter.split_documents(documents)
# Create embeddings
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
# Create a FAISS vector store from the documents
vectorstore = FAISS.from_documents(docs, embeddings)
# Create a retriever interface
retriever = vectorstore.as_retriever()
# Initialize the OpenAI LLM
llm = OpenAI(temperature=0)
# Create a RetrievalQA chain
qa_chain = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(
llm=llm,
chain_type="stuff",
retriever=retriever
)
# Ask a question
query = "What did the president say about Ketanji Brown Jackson?"
result = qa_chain.run(query)
print(result)
```
### TypeScript Example
```typescript theme={null}
import * as fs from 'fs';
import { OpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";
import { TextLoader } from 'langchain/document_loaders/fs/text';
import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from 'langchain/text_splitter';
import { OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";
import { FaissStore } from "@langchain/community/vectorstores/faiss";
import { RetrievalQAChain } from 'langchain/chains';
import { HoneyHiveLangChainTracer } from 'honeyhive';
async function runQA(): Promise {
const tracer = new HoneyHiveLangChainTracer({
project: process.env.HH_PROJECT,
sessionName: process.env.HH_SESSION_NAME,
apiKey: process.env.HH_API_KEY,
});
const tracerConfig = {
callbacks: [tracer],
};
// Load the document with tracing
const loader = new TextLoader('state_of_the_union.txt', tracerConfig);
const documents = await loader.load();
// Split the document into chunks with tracing
const textSplitter = new RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter({
chunkSize: 1000,
chunkOverlap: 200,
...tracerConfig,
});
const docs = await textSplitter.splitDocuments(documents);
// Create embeddings with tracing
const embeddings = new OpenAIEmbeddings(tracerConfig);
// Create a FAISS vector store from the documents with tracing
const vectorStore = await FaissStore.fromDocuments(docs, embeddings, tracerConfig);
// Create a retriever interface with tracing
const retriever = vectorStore.asRetriever(tracerConfig);
// Initialize the OpenAI LLM with tracing
const llm = new OpenAI({
temperature: 0,
...tracerConfig,
});
// Create a RetrievalQA chain with tracing
const qaChain = RetrievalQAChain.fromLLM(llm, retriever, tracerConfig);
// Ask a question
const query = "What did the president say about Ketanji Brown Jackson?";
const res = await qaChain.call({ query, ...tracerConfig });
console.log(res.text);
}
runQA().catch(console.error);
```
These examples demonstrate how to integrate HoneyHive tracing with LangChain in both Python and TypeScript environments, covering document loading, text splitting, embedding creation, vector store operations, and question-answering chains.
# LangGraph
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/integrations/langgraph
This guide explains how to integrate HoneyHive with LangChain for Python implementations.
> View the complete cookbook example on GitHub: [honeyhiveai/cookbook/langgraph-cookbook](https://github.com/honeyhiveai/cookbook/tree/main/langgraph-cookbook)
This guide demonstrates how to build a sophisticated code generation system using LangGraph and HoneyHive tracing. The system combines Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) with self-correction capabilities to generate reliable code solutions. HoneyHive's tracing capabilities provide comprehensive visibility into the entire process, making debugging and optimization easier than ever.
## Overview
The system consists of several key components:
* Documentation loading and processing (traced with HoneyHive)
* LLM setup with structured output (monitored for performance)
* A LangGraph workflow for code generation and validation (with detailed tracing)
* HoneyHive tracing for monitoring and debugging (real-time insights)
## Prerequisites
Before running this code, ensure you have the following:
* Python 3.x
* Required API keys:
* HoneyHive API key (for comprehensive tracing)
* OpenAI API key
* Anthropic API key
* Required packages:
```bash theme={null}
pip install langchain langchain-community langgraph beautifulsoup4 honeyhive langchain-openai langchain-anthropic
```
## Code Implementation
### Environment Setup and Imports
```python theme={null}
import getpass
import os
import sys
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as Soup
from langchain_community.document_loaders.recursive_url_loader import RecursiveUrlLoader
from langchain_core.prompts import ChatPromptTemplate
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from langchain_anthropic import ChatAnthropic
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from typing import List
from typing_extensions import TypedDict, Annotated
from langgraph.graph import END, StateGraph, START
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer, trace
# Set up environment variables
# Delete the below if it is already set in the environment
os.environ["HONEYHIVE_API_KEY"] = "your honeyhive api key"
os.environ["HONEYHIVE_PROJECT"] = "your honeyhive project"
os.environ["HONEYHIVE_SOURCE"] = "your honeyhive source"
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your openai api key"
os.environ["ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"] = "your anthropic api key"
```
### HoneyHive Tracing Setup
HoneyHive's tracing setup provides comprehensive monitoring capabilities:
```python theme={null}
# Initialize HoneyHive tracer with detailed configuration
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key=os.environ.get("HONEYHIVE_API_KEY", "your honeyhive api key"),
project=os.environ.get("HONEYHIVE_PROJECT", "your honeyhive project"),
source="development",
session_name="LangGraph Code Generation"
)
```
With this setup, you get:
* Real-time monitoring of all traced functions
* Detailed performance metrics
* Error tracking and debugging
* Session-based analytics
* Custom metadata support
### Documentation Loading
The system uses RecursiveUrlLoader with HoneyHive tracing to monitor documentation loading:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def load_documentation(url):
"""Load documentation from a URL"""
print("---LOADING DOCUMENTATION---")
loader = RecursiveUrlLoader(
url=url, max_depth=20, extractor=lambda x: Soup(x, "html.parser").text
)
docs = loader.load()
# Sort and concatenate documentation
d_sorted = sorted(docs, key=lambda x: x.metadata["source"])
d_reversed = list(reversed(d_sorted))
concatenated_content = "\n\n\n --- \n\n\n".join(
[doc.page_content for doc in d_reversed]
)
print("---DOCUMENTATION LOADED---")
return concatenated_content
```
HoneyHive tracing here provides:
* Loading time metrics
* Document count tracking
* Error handling for failed loads
* Memory usage monitoring
* URL accessibility tracking
### Data Model
The system uses Pydantic with HoneyHive tracing for structured output validation:
```python theme={null}
class code(BaseModel):
"""Schema for code solutions to questions about HoneyHive."""
prefix: str = Field(description="Description of the problem and approach")
imports: str = Field(description="Code block import statements")
code: str = Field(description="Code block not including import statements")
```
HoneyHive helps track:
* Model validation success rates
* Field completion rates
* Schema compliance
* Data quality metrics
### LLM Setup
The system uses Claude with HoneyHive tracing for comprehensive LLM monitoring:

)
structured_llm_claude = llm_claude.with_structured_output(code, include_raw=True)
return structured_llm_claude
llm = setup_llm()
```
HoneyHive provides:
* LLM response time tracking
* Token usage monitoring
* Error rate tracking
* Model performance analytics
* Cost tracking per request
### Documentation Loading and Chain Setup
First, load the documentation and set up the code generation chain:

# Load HoneyHive documentation
documentation = load_documentation("https://docs.honeyhive.ai/introduction/quickstart")
# Helper function for Claude output processing
@trace
def parse_output(solution):
"""Parse the structured output from Claude"""
if "parsed" in solution:
return solution["parsed"]
return solution
# Set up the code generation chain
code_gen_chain = code_gen_prompt_claude | llm | parse_output
```
### LangGraph Implementation
The system uses LangGraph with HoneyHive tracing for workflow monitoring:

```python theme={null}
class GraphState(TypedDict):
"""
Represents the state of our graph.
Attributes:
error : Binary flag for control flow to indicate whether test error was tripped
messages : With user question, error messages, reasoning

messages: List
generation: str
iterations: int
```
2. Graph Nodes with HoneyHive tracing:
**Generate Node:**
```python theme={null}
@trace
def generate(state: GraphState):
"""
Generate a code solution
Args:
state (dict): The current graph state
Returns:
state (dict): New key added to state, generation
"""
print("---GENERATING CODE SOLUTION---")

# Generate the code solution
generation = code_gen_chain.invoke(
{"messages": messages, "context": documentation}
)
print("---CODE SOLUTION GENERATED---")
return {"generation": generation, "iterations": state["iterations"] + 1}
```
**Code Check Node:**
```python theme={null}
@trace
def code_check(state: GraphState):
"""
Verify that the code solution works by:
1. Checking that imports don't error
2. Checking that code execution doesn't error

exec(imports)
print("Imports OK!")
except Exception as e:
error_msg = f"Import error: {str(e)}"
print(f"Import error: {e}")
# If imports okay, check code execution
if not error_msg:
try:
print("---CHECKING CODE EXECUTION---")
# Only syntax check (don't execute the code for safety)
compile(code_block, "", "exec")
print("Code syntax OK!")
except Exception as e:
error_msg = f"Code execution error: {str(e)}"
print(f"Code execution error: {e}")
# Update state based on checks

if has_error:
messages = state["messages"] + [
(
"assistant",
f"There was an error with the code: {error_msg}. Let me fix it.",
)
]
return {"error": "yes", "messages": messages}
else:
return {"error": "no"}
```
**Reflect Node:**
```python theme={null}
@trace
def reflect(state: GraphState):
"""
Reflect on the code solution and improve it
Args:
state (dict): The current graph state
Returns:
state (dict): State with updated messages for reflection

```
**Decision Node:**
```python theme={null}
@trace
def decide_to_finish(state: GraphState):
"""

return "generate"
# If no error but want to reflect before finishing (optional)
# Change flag to "reflect" to enable this branch
flag = "do not reflect" # Change to "reflect" to enable reflection
if error == "no" and flag == "reflect":
print("---NO ERROR, REFLECTING BEFORE FINISHING---")
return "reflect"
# Otherwise, finish
print("---FINISHING---")
return "finish"
```
3. Graph Construction with comprehensive tracing:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def build_graph():
"""Build the LangGraph for code generation"""
# Create a graph
graph_builder = StateGraph(GraphState)
# Add nodes
graph_builder.add_node("generate", generate)
graph_builder.add_node("code_check", code_check)
graph_builder.add_node("reflect", reflect)
# Add edges
graph_builder.add_edge(START, "generate")
graph_builder.add_edge("generate", "code_check")
# Add conditional edges
graph_builder.add_conditional_edges(
"code_check",
decide_to_finish,
{
"generate": "generate",
"reflect": "reflect",
"finish": END,
},
)
graph_builder.add_edge("reflect", "generate")
# Compile the graph
return graph_builder.compile()
# Create the graph
graph = build_graph()
```
### Main Execution Function
The main function to run the graph with a question:
```python theme={null}
# Function to run the graph with a question
@trace
def solve_coding_question(question):
"""Run the graph to solve a coding question"""
# Initialize the state
state = {
"error": "no",
"messages": [("human", question)],
"generation": None,
"iterations": 0,
}
# Execute the graph
result = graph.invoke(state)
# Return the generated code solution
return result["generation"]
```

result = generate_completion(prompt, model=model)
results.append({"prompt": prompt, "completion": result, "status": "success"})
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error processing prompt {i+1}: {e}")

## What's Being Traced
With this integration, HoneyHive captures:
1. **LiteLLM Initialization**: Configuration and setup of LiteLLM
2. **Completion Generation**: Performance metrics for generating completions
3. **Chat Completion Generation**: Metrics for chat-based completions
4. **Embedding Generation**: Performance of embedding operations
5. **Fallback Processing**: Success rates and performance of fallback mechanisms
6. **Batch Processing**: Metrics for processing multiple prompts
## Viewing Traces in HoneyHive
After running your application:
1. Log into your HoneyHive account
2. Navigate to your project
3. View the traces in the Sessions tab
4. Analyze the performance of each LLM operation
## Advanced Features
### Tracing with Model Fallbacks
LiteLLM supports fallback mechanisms when a primary model fails. You can trace this behavior to understand failure patterns:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def process_with_fallback(messages, primary_model="gpt-3.5-turbo", fallback_model="gpt-4"):
try:
# Try primary model first
print(f"Attempting to use primary model: {primary_model}")
return generate_chat_completion(messages, model=primary_model)
except Exception as primary_error:
print(f"Primary model failed: {primary_error}")
try:
# Fall back to secondary model
print(f"Falling back to secondary model: {fallback_model}")
return generate_chat_completion(messages, model=fallback_model)
except Exception as fallback_error:
print(f"Fallback model also failed: {fallback_error}")
raise
```
### Tracing Batch Processing
For batch operations, you can trace the entire batch process as well as individual completions:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def batch_process_prompts(prompts, model="gpt-3.5-turbo"):
results = []
for i, prompt in enumerate(prompts):
try:
print(f"Processing prompt {i+1}/{len(prompts)}")
result = generate_completion(prompt, model=model)
results.append({"prompt": prompt, "completion": result, "status": "success"})
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error processing prompt {i+1}: {e}")
results.append({"prompt": prompt, "completion": None, "status": "error", "error": str(e)})
return results
```
## Best Practices
* Use descriptive session names to easily identify different runs
* Add custom attributes to traces for more detailed analysis
* Trace both successful operations and error handling paths
* Consider tracing with different model configurations to compare performance
* Use HoneyHive's evaluation capabilities to assess response quality
## Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with tracing:
* Ensure your HoneyHive API key is correct
* Verify that all required packages are installed
* Check that your LiteLLM API keys are valid
* Review the HoneyHive documentation for additional troubleshooting steps
## Next Steps
* Experiment with different LLM providers through LiteLLM
* Add custom metrics to your traces
* Implement A/B testing of different models
* Explore HoneyHive's evaluation capabilities for your LLM responses
By integrating HoneyHive with LiteLLM, you gain valuable insights into your LLM operations and can optimize for better performance, cost-efficiency, and response quality.
# LlamaIndex
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/integrations/llamaindex
This guide explains how to integrate HoneyHive with LlamaIndex for Python implementations.
## Initializing HoneyHive Tracer
Use the following code to initialize HoneyHive tracing in your project:
For Python projects, use the `HoneyHiveTracer` class to initialize tracing:
```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer
import os
HoneyHiveTracer.init(api_key=os.environ["HH_API_KEY"], project=os.environ["HH_PROJECT"])
```
This initializes auto-tracing for your entire Python application.
If you're using these code examples verbatim, then make sure to set the appropriate environment variables (`HH_API_KEY` and `HH_PROJECT`) before running your application.
## Supported LlamaIndex Versions/Interfaces
Compatible with LlamaIndex versions `^0.10.0` and above.
For the most up-to-date compatibility information, please refer to the HoneyHive documentation.
## Nesting
Nesting is handled automatically by the HoneyHive tracing system. When you use traced components within other traced components, the system will create a hierarchical structure of spans, reflecting the nested nature of your LlamaIndex operations.
## Enriching Properties
For information on how to enrich your traces and spans with additional context, see [our enrichment documentation](/tracing/enrich-traces).
## Adding Evaluators
Once traces have been logged in the HoneyHive platform, you can then run evaluations with either [Python or TypeScript](/evaluation/quickstart).
## Cookbook Examples
### Python Example
```python theme={null}
import os
from llama_index.core import (
GPTVectorStoreIndex,
SimpleDirectoryReader,
Settings
)
from llama_index.core.retrievers import VectorIndexRetriever
from llama_index.core.query_engine import RetrieverQueryEngine
from llama_index.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbedding
from llama_index.llms.openai import OpenAI
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer
# Initialize HoneyHiveTracer
HoneyHiveTracer.init(api_key=os.environ["HH_API_KEY"], project=os.environ["HH_PROJECT"])
# Load the document
documents = SimpleDirectoryReader(input_files=['state_of_the_union.txt']).load_data()
# Initialize the OpenAI LLM using LlamaIndex's OpenAI wrapper
llm = OpenAI(temperature=0)
# Create the embedding model
embedding_model = OpenAIEmbedding()
# Add the LLM predictor and embedding model to the Settings object
Settings.llm = llm
Settings.embed_model = embedding_model
# Create a vector index from the documents
index = GPTVectorStoreIndex.from_documents(
documents,
)
# Ask a question
query = "What did the president say about Ketanji Brown Jackson?"
retriever = VectorIndexRetriever(index=index)
query_engine = RetrieverQueryEngine.from_args(retriever)
response = query_engine.query(query)
print(response)
```
These examples demonstrate how to integrate HoneyHive tracing with LlamaIndex in Python environments, covering document loading, text splitting, embedding creation, vector store operations, and question-answering chains.

MARQO_URL = os.environ.get("MARQO_URL", "http://localhost:8882") # Default Marqo URL
# Check if Marqo server is available
def is_marqo_available():
try:
response = requests.get(f"{MARQO_URL}/health", timeout=2)
return response.status_code == 200
except requests.RequestException:
return False
# If Marqo server is not available, print a warning
marqo_available = is_marqo_available()
if not marqo_available:
print(f"""
WARNING: Marqo server is not available at {MARQO_URL}

client = marqo.Client(url=MARQO_URL)
else:
# Create a mock client for demonstration
client = None
# Define the index name
INDEX_NAME = "honeyhive_marqo_demo"
```
## Tracing Marqo Operations
### Create Index with Tracing

```python theme={null}
from honeyhive import trace
@trace
def create_marqo_index():
"""Create a Marqo index if it doesn't exist."""
if not marqo_available:
print("[MOCK] Creating index (simulated)")

# Create the index with simpler settings based on documentation
client.create_index(INDEX_NAME, model="hf/e5-base-v2")
print(f"Created index: {INDEX_NAME}")
else:
print(f"Index {INDEX_NAME} already exists")
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error creating index: {e}")
raise
```
### Add Documents with Tracing
Trace the document addition process:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def add_documents_to_marqo(documents):
"""Add documents to the Marqo index."""
if not marqo_available:
print(f"[MOCK] Adding {len(documents)} documents to index (simulated)")
return
try:
# Add documents to the index following the documentation's format
client.index(INDEX_NAME).add_documents(

tensor_fields=["text"] # Specify which fields to vectorize
)
print(f"Added {len(documents)} documents to index")
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error adding documents: {e}")
raise
```
### Search with Tracing
Monitor search operations:
```python theme={null}
@trace
def search_marqo(query, limit=3):
"""Search the Marqo index for relevant documents."""
if not marqo_available:
print(f"[MOCK] Searching for: {query} (simulated)")
# Return mock results for demonstration
mock_hits = [
{"text": "HoneyHive provides tracing and monitoring for AI applications.", "_id": "2", "score": 0.95},
{"text": "Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) combines retrieval systems with generative models.", "_id": "3", "score": 0.85},
{"text": "Vector databases store embeddings which are numerical representations of data.", "_id": "4", "score": 0.75}
]
return mock_hits
try:
# Search the index
results = client.index(INDEX_NAME).search(
q=query,
limit=limit
)
print(f"Found {len(results['hits'])} results for query: {query}")
return results["hits"]

# HoneyHive OpenAI Tracing Guide
This comprehensive guide explains how to use HoneyHive to trace and monitor OpenAI API calls. We'll cover the setup process and explore each type of trace with practical examples from our cookbook code.
## Getting Started
### Installation
First, install the required packages as specified in `requirements.txt`:
```bash theme={null}
pip install openai honeyhive pydantic
```
### Basic Setup
To start tracing your OpenAI calls, initialize the HoneyHive tracer at the beginning of your application:
```python theme={null}
from openai import OpenAI
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer, trace
# Initialize HoneyHive tracer
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key='your-honeyhive-api-key',
project='OpenAI-traces',
# Optional parameters
source='dev', # Environment: 'dev', 'staging', 'prod', etc.
session_name='openai-session' # Custom session name for better organization
)
# Initialize OpenAI client
client = OpenAI(api_key='your-openai-api-key')
```
This initialization, found in all our example files, enables automatic instrumentation for all OpenAI API calls.
## Types of OpenAI Traces
HoneyHive provides automatic instrumentation for various OpenAI features. Let's examine each type in detail:
### 1. Basic Chat Completions
The most common OpenAI interaction is the chat completion, which HoneyHive traces automatically.
From `basic_chat.py`:
```python theme={null}
# Simple function to call OpenAI chat completions API
@trace(name="basic_chat_completion", tags={"type": "chat_completion"})
def basic_chat_completion():
"""Make a simple chat completion call to OpenAI API."""
try:
# This call will be automatically traced by HoneyHive
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o-mini",
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "What is the capital of France?"}
],
temperature=0.7,
max_tokens=150
)
# Return the response content
return response.choices[0].message.content
except Exception as e:
# Errors will be captured in the trace
print(f"Error: {e}")
raise
```
What HoneyHive captures:
* Request details (model, messages, parameters)
* Response content
* Token usage (prompt, completion, total)
* Latency metrics
* Any errors or exceptions
#### Enhancing Chat Completion Traces
For richer context, add custom metadata and tags to your traces, as shown in `basic_chat.py`:
```python theme={null}
@trace(name="annotated_chat_completion",
tags={"type": "chat_completion", "purpose": "geography_question"},
metadata={"user_id": "test-user-123"})
def annotated_chat_completion(question):
"""Make a chat completion call with custom annotations and metadata."""
# Implementation...
```
This additional information makes it easier to filter, search, and analyze your traces in the HoneyHive dashboard.
### 2. Function Calling
Function calling is a powerful OpenAI feature that HoneyHive captures in detail. The trace includes the initial request, function execution, and final response.
From `function_calling.py`:
```python theme={null}
@trace(name="basic_function_calling", tags={"type": "function_calling"})
def basic_function_calling():
# Define the tools (functions) the model can use
tools = [
{
"type": "function",
"function": {
"name": "get_weather",
"description": "Get the current weather in a specified location",
"parameters": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"location": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The city and country, e.g., 'San Francisco, CA' or 'Paris, France'"
},
"unit": {
"type": "string",
"enum": ["celsius", "fahrenheit"],
"description": "The temperature unit to use. Default is celsius."
}
},
"required": ["location"]
}
}
}
]
# Make a request to the OpenAI API
messages = [
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "What's the weather like in Paris today?"}
]
# This API call will be traced by HoneyHive
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o-mini",
messages=messages,
tools=tools,
tool_choice="auto"
)
# Process response and function calls...
```
Additionally, tracing the actual functions being called provides a complete picture:
```python theme={null}
@trace(name="get_weather_function", tags={"type": "external_function"})
def get_weather(location, unit="celsius"):
"""
Get the current weather in a given location.
This is a mock function that would typically call a weather API.
"""
# Implementation...
return weather_data
```
What HoneyHive captures for function calling:
* The initial request with tools definition
* Function call arguments from the model
* Function execution details
* Second API call with function results
* Final assistant response
### 3. Structured Outputs
Structured outputs ensure the model's response adheres to a specific format, either JSON or a Pydantic model. HoneyHive traces these specialized responses including the schema definition.
From `structured_output.py`:
```python theme={null}
# Simple JSON schema response format
@trace(name="json_response_format", tags={"type": "structured_output", "format": "json"})
def get_structured_json():
"""Get a structured JSON response using the response_format parameter."""
try:
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o-2024-08-06", # Make sure to use a model that supports JSON response format
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant that provides weather information."},
{"role": "user", "content": "What's the weather like in New York today?"}
],
response_format={"type": "json_object"}
)
return response.choices[0].message.content
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
raise
```
More advanced structured outputs using JSON schema:
```python theme={null}
@trace(name="json_schema_output", tags={"type": "structured_output", "format": "json_schema"})
def get_json_schema_output():
"""Get a structured response using a JSON schema."""
try:
# Define a JSON schema
json_schema = {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"location": {"type": "string"},
"current_weather": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"temperature": {"type": "number"},
"unit": {"type": "string", "enum": ["celsius", "fahrenheit"]},
"conditions": {"type": "string"},
"precipitation_chance": {"type": "number"}
},
"required": ["temperature", "unit", "conditions", "precipitation_chance"]
},
"forecast": {
"type": "array",
"items": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"day": {"type": "string"},
"temperature": {"type": "number"},
"conditions": {"type": "string"}
},
"required": ["day", "temperature", "conditions"]
}
}
},
"required": ["location", "current_weather", "forecast"]
}
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o-2024-08-06",
messages=[...],
response_format={"type": "json_schema", "schema": json_schema}
)
return response.choices[0].message.content
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
raise
```
And using Pydantic models:
```python theme={null}
@trace(name="pydantic_structured_output", tags={"type": "structured_output", "format": "pydantic"})
def get_pydantic_structured_output():
"""Get a structured response using Pydantic models."""
try:
completion = client.beta.chat.completions.parse(
model="gpt-4o-2024-08-06",
messages=[...],
response_format=Person
)
# The parsed attribute contains the structured data
person = completion.choices[0].message.parsed
return person
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
raise
```
What HoneyHive captures for structured outputs:
* The schema or model definition
* Response parsing process
* Structured data output
* Any parsing errors
### 4. Reasoning Models
OpenAI's reasoning models (o1, o3-mini) have unique tracing needs, particularly around reasoning tokens and effort levels.
From `reasoning_models.py`:
```python theme={null}
@trace(name="reasoning_model_o1", tags={"type": "reasoning_model", "model": "o1"})
def call_o1_model():
"""
Demonstrate calling the o1 reasoning model and trace the request/response.
"""
try:
# Complex math problem that benefits from reasoning capability
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="o1",
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful math assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "Solve this step by step: Integrate x^3 * ln(x) with respect to x."}
],
reasoning_effort="high" # Use high reasoning effort for complex problems
)
# Extract the response and the usage information
content = response.choices[0].message.content
reasoning_tokens = response.usage.completion_tokens_details.reasoning_tokens if hasattr(response.usage, "completion_tokens_details") else None
return {
"content": content,
"usage": {
"prompt_tokens": response.usage.prompt_tokens,
"completion_tokens": response.usage.completion_tokens,
"total_tokens": response.usage.total_tokens,
"reasoning_tokens": reasoning_tokens
}
}
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
raise
```
You can also compare different reasoning effort levels:
```python theme={null}
@trace(name="reasoning_model_o1_with_effort", tags={"type": "reasoning_model", "model": "o1"})
def call_o1_model_with_effort(problem, effort="medium"):
"""
Demonstrate calling the o1 model with different reasoning efforts.
Args:
problem: Math problem to solve
effort: Reasoning effort ('low', 'medium', or 'high')
"""
# Implementation...
```
What HoneyHive captures for reasoning models:
* Standard request and response details
* Reasoning token usage
* Reasoning effort level
* Model-specific parameters
### 5. Multi-turn Conversations
Tracing conversations across multiple turns provides a complete history and context. From `multi_turn_conversation.py`:
```python theme={null}
class Conversation:
"""
Class to manage a conversation with the OpenAI API.
Each turn in the conversation is traced by HoneyHive.
"""
def __init__(self, system_message="You are a helpful assistant."):
self.messages = [{"role": "system", "content": system_message}]
self.turn_count = 0
@trace(name="conversation_turn", tags={"type": "conversation"})
def add_user_message(self, content):
"""Add a user message to the conversation and get the assistant's response."""
# Increment turn count
self.turn_count += 1
# Add user message to the conversation
self.messages.append({"role": "user", "content": content})
try:
# Get assistant response
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o-mini",
messages=self.messages,
temperature=0.7,
max_tokens=150
)
# Extract the assistant's message
assistant_message = response.choices[0].message
# Add assistant message to the conversation
self.messages.append({"role": "assistant", "content": assistant_message.content})
return {
"role": assistant_message.role,
"content": assistant_message.content,
"turn": self.turn_count,
"usage": {
"prompt_tokens": response.usage.prompt_tokens,
"completion_tokens": response.usage.completion_tokens,
"total_tokens": response.usage.total_tokens
}
}
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error in turn {self.turn_count}: {e}")
raise
```
Using this class in a full conversation:
```python theme={null}
@trace(name="rich_conversation", tags={"type": "conversation", "topic": "varied"})
def run_rich_conversation():
"""Run a multi-turn conversation with the assistant on various topics."""
# Initialize conversation with a broad system message
conversation = Conversation(
system_message="You are a knowledgeable assistant able to discuss a wide range of topics."
)
# First turn - Ask about a historical event
turn1 = conversation.add_user_message("Can you tell me about the Apollo 11 mission?")
# Second turn - Follow up on the same topic
turn2 = conversation.add_user_message("What were the names of the astronauts on that mission?")
# Third turn - Change the topic
turn3 = conversation.add_user_message("Let's switch topics. Can you explain how photosynthesis works?")
# Fourth turn - Ask for a summary of the conversation
turn4 = conversation.add_user_message("Can you summarize what we've discussed so far?")
return conversation.get_conversation_history()
```
What HoneyHive captures for multi-turn conversations:
* Individual turns as separate traces
* Message history accumulation
* Token usage across turns
* Context of the entire conversation
* Relationships between turns

# Qdrant
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/integrations/qdrant
Qdrant RAG with HoneyHive Tracing
Learn how to integrate Qdrant with HoneyHive for vector database monitoring and tracing in RAG applications.
## Qdrant
Qdrant is an open-source vector database optimized for storing and searching high-dimensional vectors. By integrating Qdrant with HoneyHive, you can:
* Trace vector database operations
* Monitor latency, embedding quality, and context relevance
* Evaluate retrieval performance in your RAG pipelines
* Optimize paramaters such as `chunk_size` or `chunk_overlap`
## Prerequisites
* A HoneyHive account and API key
* Python 3.8+
* Basic understanding of vector databases and RAG pipelines
## Installation
Install the required packages:
```bash theme={null}
pip install qdrant-client openai honeyhive
```
## Basic Integration Example
The following example demonstrates a complete RAG pipeline with HoneyHive tracing for Qdrant operations. We'll break down each component step by step.
### Initialize Clients and Setup
First, set up the necessary clients and configuration for HoneyHive, OpenAI, and Qdrant:
```python theme={null}
from qdrant_client import QdrantClient
from qdrant_client.http.models import PointStruct, VectorParams, Distance
import openai
import os
from honeyhive.tracer import HoneyHiveTracer
from honeyhive.tracer.custom import trace
from openai import OpenAI
# Set API Keys
openai.api_key = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")
honeyhive_api_key = os.getenv("HONEYHIVE_API_KEY")
# Initialize HoneyHive Tracer
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key=honeyhive_api_key,
project="qdrant-rag-example",
session_name="qdrant-integration-demo"
)
# Initialize OpenAI client
openai_client = OpenAI(api_key=openai.api_key)
```
### Connect to Qdrant
You can connect to Qdrant in two ways: self-hosted (local) or cloud-hosted (Qdrant Cloud):
#### Option 1: Self-Hosted Qdrant (Local)
To run Qdrant locally, you need to have Docker installed and run the following command:
```bash theme={null}
docker pull qdrant/qdrant
docker run -p 6333:6333 -p 6334:6334 -v "$(pwd)/qdrant_storage:/qdrant/storage" qdrant/qdrant
```
Then connect to the local Qdrant instance:
```python theme={null}
# Connect to local Qdrant
client = QdrantClient(url="http://localhost:6333")
print("Connected to local Qdrant instance")
```
#### Option 2: Qdrant Cloud
For Qdrant Cloud, you'll need your cluster host and API key:
```python theme={null}
# Qdrant Cloud configuration
QDRANT_HOST = os.getenv("QDRANT_HOST") # e.g., "your-cluster-id.eu-central.aws.cloud.qdrant.io"
QDRANT_API_KEY = os.getenv("QDRANT_API_KEY")
# Connect to Qdrant Cloud
client = QdrantClient(url=QDRANT_HOST, api_key=QDRANT_API_KEY)
print("Connected to Qdrant Cloud")
```
### Create a Collection
Create a collection to store document embeddings:
```python theme={null}
collection_name = "documents"
vector_size = 1536 # For text-embedding-3-small
vector_distance = Distance.COSINE
# Create collection if it doesn't exist
if not client.collection_exists(collection_name):
client.create_collection(
collection_name=collection_name,
vectors_config=VectorParams(size=vector_size, distance=vector_distance)
)
```
### Define Embedding Function with Tracing
Create a function to generate embeddings with HoneyHive tracing:
```python theme={null}
@trace()
def embed_text(text: str) -> list:
"""Generate embeddings for a text using OpenAI's API."""
response = openai_client.embeddings.create(
model="text-embedding-3-small",
input=text
)
return response.data[0].embedding
```
### Insert Documents with Tracing
Create a function to insert documents into Qdrant with tracing:
```python theme={null}
@trace()
def insert_documents(docs):
"""Insert documents into Qdrant collection."""
points = []
for idx, doc in enumerate(docs):
vector = embed_text(doc)
points.append(PointStruct(
id=idx + 1,
vector=vector,
payload={"text": doc}
))
client.upsert(
collection_name=collection_name,
points=points
)
return len(points)
# Sample documents
documents = [
"Qdrant is a vector database optimized for storing and searching high-dimensional vectors.",
"HoneyHive provides observability for AI applications, including RAG pipelines.",
"Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) combines retrieval systems with generative models.",
"Vector databases like Qdrant are essential for efficient similarity search in RAG systems.",
"OpenAI's embedding models convert text into high-dimensional vectors for semantic search."
]
# Insert documents
num_inserted = insert_documents(documents)
```
### Retrieve Documents with Tracing
Create a function to retrieve relevant documents from Qdrant with tracing:
```python theme={null}
@trace()
def get_relevant_docs(query: str, top_k: int = 3) -> list:
"""Retrieve relevant documents for a query."""
# Embed the query
q_vector = embed_text(query)
# Search in Qdrant
search_response = client.query_points(
collection_name=collection_name,
query=q_vector,
limit=top_k,
with_payload=True
)
# Extract results
docs = []
for point in search_response.points:
docs.append({
"id": point.id,
"text": point.payload.get("text"),
"score": point.score
})
return docs
```
### Generate Response with Tracing
Create a function to generate a response using OpenAI with tracing:
```python theme={null}
@trace()
def answer_query(query: str, relevant_docs: list) -> str:
"""Generate an answer for a query using retrieved documents."""
if not relevant_docs:
return "Could not retrieve relevant documents to answer the query."
# Format context from retrieved documents
context_parts = []
for i, doc in enumerate(relevant_docs):
context_parts.append(f"Document {i+1} (ID: {doc['id']}, Score: {doc['score']:.4f}):\n{doc['text']}")
context = "\n\n".join(context_parts)
# Create prompt
prompt = f"""Answer the question based ONLY on the following context:
Context:
{context}
Question: {query}
Answer:"""
# Generate answer
completion = openai_client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o-mini",
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant that answers questions based strictly on the provided context. If the answer is not in the context, say so clearly."},
{"role": "user", "content": prompt}
],
temperature=0.2
)
return completion.choices[0].message.content.strip()
```
### Complete RAG Pipeline
Create a function to run the complete RAG pipeline with tracing:
```python theme={null}
@trace()
def rag_pipeline(query: str) -> dict:
"""End-to-end RAG pipeline."""
# Get relevant documents
relevant_docs = get_relevant_docs(query)
# Generate answer
answer = answer_query(query, relevant_docs)
return {
"query": query,
"answer": answer,
"retrieved_documents": relevant_docs
}
```
### Batch Processing
For larger document sets, you can use batch processing to improve performance:
```python theme={null}
@trace()
def batch_insert_documents(documents_to_insert, batch_size=10, start_id_offset=0):
"""Insert documents in batches."""
total_inserted = 0
for i in range(0, len(documents_to_insert), batch_size):
batch_docs = documents_to_insert[i:i+batch_size]
points = []
for local_idx, doc in enumerate(batch_docs):
relative_idx = i + local_idx
vector = embed_text(doc)
point_id = relative_idx + start_id_offset + 1
points.append(PointStruct(
id=point_id,
vector=vector,
payload={"text": doc}
))
if points:
client.upsert(
collection_name=collection_name,
points=points
)
total_inserted += len(points)
return total_inserted
```
### Test the RAG Pipeline
Here's how to test the complete RAG pipeline:
```python theme={null}
# Test query
test_query = "What is Qdrant used for?"
result = rag_pipeline(test_query)
print(f"Query: {result['query']}")
print(f"Answer: {result['answer']}")
print("\nRetrieved Documents:")
for i, doc in enumerate(result['retrieved_documents']):
print(f"Document {i+1} (ID: {doc['id']}, Score: {doc['score']:.4f}): {doc['text']}")
```
## Viewing Traces in HoneyHive
After running your RAG pipeline with Qdrant, you can view the traces in the HoneyHive UI:
1. Navigate to your project in the HoneyHive dashboard
2. Click on the "Traces" tab to see all the traces from your RAG pipeline
3. Click on a specific trace to see detailed information about each step in the pipeline
4. Analyze the performance of your vector operations, embeddings, and retrieval processes
With HoneyHive, you can easily monitor and optimize your Qdrant-powered RAG pipeline, ensuring that it delivers the best possible results for your users.
Visit the [Qdrant documentation](https://qdrant.tech/documentation/) and the [HoneyHive documentation](https://docs.honeyhive.ai/).
# Vercel AI SDK
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/integrations/vercel
This guide explains how to integrate HoneyHive with the Vercel AI SDK for TypeScript implementations.
## Overview
Vercel's AI SDK has [built-in support](https://sdk.vercel.ai/docs/ai-sdk-core/telemetry#telemetry) for OpenTelemetry based tracing.
If you have already instrumented Sentry with your NextJS application, please follow the instructions in [this guide instead](/integrations/vercel-sentry) to ensure that HoneyHive and Sentry do not conflict with each other.
To set up HoneyHive with your NextJS application, follow these 3 steps:
1. Enable NextJS's OpenTelemetry instrumentation.
2. Set the HoneyHive endpoint and headers in your environment variables.
3. Generate a client-side `sessionId` and pass it to your AI SDK call to link multiple AI SDK requests to the same user session.
## Step 1: Enable NextJS's OpenTelemetry instrumentation
Borrowing from Vercel's [documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/optimizing/open-telemetry#getting-started),
here are the steps to instrument your application to emit telemetry data:
First, install OpenTelemetry libraries:
```bash theme={null}
npm install @vercel/otel @opentelemetry/sdk-logs @opentelemetry/api-logs @opentelemetry/instrumentation
```
Next, create a custom `instrumentation.ts` (or .js) file in the **root directory** of the project (or inside `src` folder if using one) and paste the following code:
Note that the `serviceName` need not be the same as your HoneyHive project name.
```typescript theme={null}
import { registerOTel } from '@vercel/otel'
export function register() {
registerOTel({ serviceName: 'your-service-name' })
}
```
If you are on NextJS 14, you will also need to add a flag to your `next.config.mjs` or `next.config.ts` file.
If you are on NextJS 15 or later, no action is needed.
```typescript theme={null}
const nextConfig = {
// ...existing config
experimental: {
instrumentationHook: true,
},
};
```
## Step 2: Set HoneyHive endpoint and headers in your environment variables
To configure HoneyHive to consume NextJS's telemetry data, you can set the following environment variables:
```bash theme={null}
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=https://api.honeyhive.ai/nextjs
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS="Authorization=Bearer , x-honeyhive=project:"
```
`OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` is the HoneyHive API endpoint for consuming NextJS telemetry data.
`OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS` are the headers that contain the HoneyHive API key and project name.
If setting these in your `.env` file, make sure to reload your application after setting the variables.
## Step 3: Connect your AI SDK calls to HoneyHive
Since your AI application likely make multiple API calls to the AI SDK, you will want to link multiple API calls to the same user chat session.
To do this, we recommend generating a client-side `sessionId` and passing it to your AI SDK call.
A valid `sessionId` is a random uuidv4 string.
For example, you can generate a sessionId when your client-side page is mounted:
First, install `uuid`:
```bash theme={null}
npm install uuid
```
Then, generate a sessionId when your client-side page is mounted:
```typescript theme={null}
import { v4 as uuidv4 } from 'uuid';
const [sessionId, setSessionId] = useState(null);
useEffect(() => {
setSessionId(uuidv4());
}, []);
```
Finally, you can pass the sessionId to your AI SDK call along with the other metadata:
```typescript theme={null}
const result = streamText({
model: openai('gpt-4o'),
messages,
experimental_telemetry: {
isEnabled: true,
metadata: {
sessionId, // your client-side sessionId
sessionName: 'customer-support-chat', // your session name
source: 'prod', // dev, prod, etc. Defaults to 'dev' if not set
project: 'my-honeyhive-project', // only needed if not set in headers
},
},
});
```
The `sessionId` will help us link multiple traces to the same user session.
You can find a complete example of this integration in our [NextJS Cookbook](https://github.com/honeyhiveai/cookbook/tree/main/nextjs-quickstart).
# Zilliz/Milvus
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/integrations/zilliz
Learn how to integrate Zilliz/Milvus with HoneyHive for vector database monitoring, tracing, and retrieval evaluations.
## Zilliz
[Zilliz](https://zilliz.com/) is the company behind [Milvus](https://milvus.io/), an open-source vector database built for AI applications and similarity search. By integrating Milvus with HoneyHive, you can:
* Trace vector database operations
* Monitor latency, embedding quality, and context relevance
* Evaluate retrieval performance in your RAG pipelines
* Optimize paramaters such as `chunk_size` or `chunk_overlap`
## Prerequisites
* A HoneyHive account and API key
* Python 3.7+
* Basic understanding of vector databases and RAG pipelines
## Installation
Install the required packages:
```bash theme={null}
pip install openai pymilvus honeyhive
```
## Basic Integration Example
The following example demonstrates a complete RAG pipeline with HoneyHive tracing for Milvus operations. We'll break down each component step by step.
### Step 1: Initialize Clients
First, set up the necessary clients for HoneyHive, OpenAI, and Milvus:
```python theme={null}
from openai import OpenAI
from pymilvus import MilvusClient
from honeyhive.tracer import HoneyHiveTracer
from honeyhive.tracer.custom import trace
# Initialize HoneyHive Tracer
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key="your_honeyhive_api_key",
project="your_project_name",
)
# Initialize OpenAI client
openai_client = OpenAI(api_key="your_openai_api_key")
# Initialize Milvus client
milvus_client = MilvusClient("milvus_demo.db") # Using Milvus Lite for demo
```
### Step 2: Create Embedding Function
```python theme={null}
def embed_text(text):
"""Generate embeddings using OpenAI's text-embedding-ada-002 model"""
res = openai_client.embeddings.create(
model="text-embedding-ada-002",
input=text
)
return res.data[0].embedding
```
### Step 3: Set Up Milvus Collection with Tracing
```python theme={null}
@trace(
config={
"collection_name": "demo_collection",
"dimension": 1536, # text-embedding-ada-002 dimension
}
)
def setup_collection():
"""Set up Milvus collection with tracing"""
# Drop collection if it exists
if milvus_client.has_collection(collection_name="demo_collection"):
milvus_client.drop_collection(collection_name="demo_collection")
# Create new collection
milvus_client.create_collection(
collection_name="demo_collection",
dimension=1536 # text-embedding-ada-002 dimension
)
```
The `@trace` decorator logs this operation to HoneyHive with metadata about the collection name and dimension. The function itself creates a fresh collection for our vectors, with the dimension matching our embedding model's output size.
### Step 4: Insert Documents with Tracing
```python theme={null}
@trace(
config={
"embedding_model": "text-embedding-ada-002"
}
)
def insert_documents(documents):
"""Insert documents with tracing"""
vectors = [embed_text(doc) for doc in documents]
data = [
{
"id": i,
"vector": vectors[i],
"text": documents[i],
"subject": "general"
}
for i in range(len(vectors))
]
res = milvus_client.insert(
collection_name="demo_collection",
data=data
)
return res
```
This function converts a list of text documents into vectors using our embedding function, then inserts them into Milvus. The `@trace` decorator logs information about the embedding model used, allowing you to compare different models' performance.
### Step 5: Search for Similar Documents with Tracing
```python theme={null}
@trace(
config={
"embedding_model": "text-embedding-ada-002",
"top_k": 3
}
)
def search_similar_documents(query, top_k=3):
"""Search for similar documents with tracing"""
query_vector = embed_text(query)
results = milvus_client.search(
collection_name="demo_collection",
data=[query_vector],
limit=top_k,
output_fields=["text", "subject"]
)
return [match["entity"]["text"] for match in results[0]]
```
### Step 6: Generate Response with Tracing
Create a function to generate a response using OpenAI with tracing:
```python theme={null}
@trace(
config={
"model": "gpt-4o",
"prompt": "You are a helpful assistant"
}
)
def generate_response(context, query):
"""Generate response using OpenAI with tracing"""
prompt = f"Context: {context}\n\nQuestion: {query}\n\nAnswer:"
response = openai_client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o",
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": prompt}
]
)
return response.choices[0].message.content
```
### Step 7: Complete RAG Pipeline with Tracing
Create a function that combines all the previous steps into a complete RAG pipeline:
```python theme={null}
@trace()
def rag_pipeline(query):
"""Complete RAG pipeline with tracing"""
# Get relevant documents
relevant_docs = search_similar_documents(query)
# Generate response
response = generate_response("\n".join(relevant_docs), query)
return response
```
### Step 8: Run the Example
Finally, create a main function to run the example:
```python theme={null}
def main():
# Sample documents
documents = [
"Artificial intelligence was founded as an academic discipline in 1956.",
"Machine learning is a subset of artificial intelligence.",
"Deep learning is a type of machine learning based on artificial neural networks.",
"Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a branch of AI that helps computers understand human language.",
]
# Set up collection
setup_collection()
# Insert documents
print("Inserting documents...")
insert_documents(documents)
# Test RAG pipeline
query = "What is the relationship between AI and machine learning?"
print(f"\nQuery: {query}")
response = rag_pipeline(query)
print(f"Response: {response}")
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```
## Advanced Configuration
### Using Milvus Lite
Use Milvus Lite with local files for demo, the setup is straightforward.
```python theme={null}
milvus_client = MilvusClient("milvus_demo.db")
```
### Using Self-hosted Milvus Server
To connect to a Milvus server, specify your server address (e.g. `"http://localhost:19530"`) and `":"` (e.g. `"root:Milvus"`) as Token in the MilvusClient.
```python theme={null}
milvus_client = MilvusClient(
uri="milvus_server_address",
token="milvus_username_and_password"
)
```
### Connect to Zilliz Cloud
To connect to Zilliz Cloud (fully managed Milvus), add your cluster endpoint and token to the MilvusClient.
```python theme={null}
milvus_client = MilvusClient(
uri="your_zilliz_cloud_endpoint",
token="your_zilliz_api_key"
)
```
### Adding Custom Metadata to Traces
Add custom metadata to your traces for better analysis:
```python theme={null}
@trace(
config={
"embedding_model": "text-embedding-ada-002",
"top_k": 3,
"custom_metadata": {
"environment": "production",
"version": "1.0.0",
"dataset": "knowledge_base_v2"
}
}
)
def search_similar_documents(query, top_k=3):
# Vector search code
...
```
## Analyzing Results in HoneyHive
After running your application with tracing enabled, you can analyze the results in the HoneyHive dashboard:
1. Navigate to your project in the HoneyHive dashboard
2. View traces for your Milvus operations
3. Analyze retrieval performance metrics
4. Compare different embedding models and configurations
By integrating Zilliz into your workflow, you can easily track and improve the performance of your AI applications. Keep an eye on what's working, spot issues quickly, and fine-tune your embeddings to boost accuracy

# Quickstart
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/introduction/quickstart
Get started with tracing in HoneyHive
With HoneyHive, we allow users to get visibility into their AI applications by tracing:
1. Model inference calls as `model` events
2. External API calls (like retrieval) as `tool` events
3. Collections of workflow steps as `chain` events
4. An entire trace of requests as a `session`, which includes back-and-forth user turns
### Logging a Trace
We use OpenTelemetry to automatically instrument your AI application. You can find the full list of supported packages [here](/introduction/troubleshooting#latest-package-versions-tested).
**Prerequisites**
* You have already created a project in HoneyHive, as explained [here](/workspace/projects).
* You have an API key for your project, as explained [here](/sdk-reference/authentication).
**Expected Time**: 5 minutes
To install our SDKs, run the following commands in the shell.
```shell Python theme={null}
pip install honeyhive
```
```shell TypeScript theme={null}
npm install honeyhive
```
```shell Python(logger sdk) theme={null}
pip install honeyhive-logger
```
```shell TypeScript(logger sdk) theme={null}
npm install @honeyhive/logger
```
Initializing the `HoneyHiveTracer` marks the beginning of your `session` and allows you to begin tracing your program.
To initialize, pass the following parameters:
* `api_key`: Get your API key from [HoneyHive Account Settings](https://app.honeyhive.ai/settings/account).
* `project`: Create a project from [HoneyHive Projects](https://app.honeyhive.ai/projects).
* *(optional)* `source`: An environment variable for the trace, e.g. "prod", "dev", etc. Defaults to "dev".
* *(optional)* `session_name`: A custom name for your agent session. Defaults to the main module name.
If you are using a [self-hosted](/setup/self-hosted) or [dedicated](/setup/dedicated) deployment, you also need to pass:
* `server_url`: The private HoneyHive endpoint found in the Settings page in the HoneyHive app.
```python Python theme={null}
from honeyhive import HoneyHiveTracer
# Add this code at the beginning of your AI pipeline code
HoneyHiveTracer.init(
api_key=MY_HONEYHIVE_API_KEY,
project=MY_HONEYHIVE_PROJECT_NAME,

The above initialization will auto-capture all interactions with [our supported providers](/introduction/troubleshooting#latest-package-versions-tested).
To capture anything else, you can trace *any function* in your code and see its inputs, outputs, errors, duration, etc. by decorating it as follows.
The following method isn't compatible with the LangChain callback handlers.
```python Python theme={null}
from honeyhive import trace
@trace
def my_function(param1, param2):
# Code here
return result
```
```python Python (async) theme={null}
from honeyhive import atrace
@atrace
async def my_function(param1, param2):
# Code here
return await async_result
```
```TypeScript TypeScript (sync / async) theme={null}
// wrap your function with tracer.traceFunction() {}
// keep the traced function's name the same
const myFunction = tracer.traceFunction()(
async function myFunction(query) {
// some code
return result;
}
);
const result = await myFunction("test");
```
```python Logger(Python) theme={null}
# The honeyhive_logger package provides a lightweight, stateless,

# Troubleshooting & FAQs
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/introduction/troubleshooting
Troubleshooting common issues with the tracer
This document lists the common issues users run into when using our tracer.
Please refer to the proposed solutions and see if they resolve your problem. If the issue still persists or isn’t mentioned here, please reach out on our [Discord support channel](https://discord.gg/vqctGpqA97).
## Debugging specific issues
For detailed SDK logs, we recommend setting the argument `verbose=True` on the Python tracer initialization to see the error trace.
Validate that the project name and API key are being set correctly
Finally check your VPN settings and whitelist our SSL certificate
Please remove `TRACELOOP_API_KEY` from your environment if present
* Upgrade your `honeyhive` package version to the latest and re-run your code
Run `pip install -U honeyhive` / `npm update honeyhive`
* Validate the provider package version that you are running [against our list here](/introduction/troubleshooting#latest-package-versions-tested) and update your provider package to match to our latest tested version
Run `pip freeze | grep ` or `npm list ` to get the version you are running on your machine
Then refer to [the below table](/introduction/troubleshooting#latest-package-versions-tested) to see if your package version is too far ahead of our latest tested version
* In JavaScript, please update your node version to a later minor version.
Don’t worry data is still getting logged. OTEL is timing out the response from our ingestion endpoint. We are working on fixing this issue.
Set `disable_batch=True` on the Python tracer to allow the data to be sent earlier
Ensure that the SSL\_CERT\_FILE environment variable is set correctly.
* Request the SSL .pem file from us.
* Save the file to a location accessible in your code.
* Set the SSL\_CERT\_FILE environment variable to point to the file's location.
## General recommendations for Python
* Add `HoneyHiveTracer.flush()` at the end of your application code
* Set `disable_batch=True` to ensure the data is being sent as the code executes
* Set `disable_batch=True` since sending a large batch might cause timeout issues
* Refer to our [multi-threading docs on Python]() to figure out how to propagate context correctly
A final fallback solution for both Python and JavaScript if all else fails is to
* Separate your provider call into a separate function
* Manually instrument that function by [adding the `trace` decorator on it](/tracing/custom-spans) or [`traceFunction` for JS/TS](/tracing/custom-spans).
## Known issues
1. Colab notebooks aren't supported by our Python auto-tracer
2. ES Module projects aren't supported by our JavaScript auto-instrumentation
ES Module projects are supported by our [custom spans](/tracing/custom-spans) and those projects using LangChain are supported by our LangChain callback handler
## Tracing Rate Limits
We support up to `5MB` on individual requests.
Our filters and aggregates are supported up to `5` levels of nesting.
We have a default rate limit of `1000` requests per minute.
Enterprise-plan users can set higher rate limits.
Our online evaluators can be scoped by `event_type` and `event_name`.
We can support more granular filters for evaluators if needed.
## Latest Package Versions tested
As of `09/18/2024`
The below tables list the latest version of a provider’s package that we have tested our tracers against. It’s often the case that future versions after these are also supported. As long as the providers haven’t changed the contract on the specific inference functions that are being auto-traced, the tracer will continue to work.

Modern AI Observability and Evaluation
HoneyHive is the **AI Observability and Evaluation Platform** that empowers developers and domain experts to collaborate and build reliable AI agents faster. We provide a unified platform for tracing, evaluating, and monitoring AI agents throughout the entire Agent Development Lifecycle (ADLC).
## Evaluation-Driven Development Workflow
Traditional AI development is reactive—you build, deploy, and hope for the best. HoneyHive enables a systematic **Evaluation-Driven Development (EDD)** approach, similar to Test-Driven Development in software engineering, where evaluation guides every stage of the Agent Development Lifecycle.
Deploy your AI application with distributed tracing to capture every interaction. Collect real-world traces, user feedback, and quality metrics from production. Run **online evals** to identify edge cases and evaluate quality at scale. Set up alerts to monitor critical failures or metric drift over time.
Transform failing traces from production into curated datasets. Run comprehensive experiments to quantify performance and **track regressions** as you change prompts, models, tools, and more.
Use evaluation results to guide improvements. **Iterate on prompts**, test new models, and optimize your AI application based on data-driven insights. Test changes against your curated datasets before deploying to production.
Deploy improvements to production and continue the cycle. Each iteration builds on data-driven insights, creating a **flywheel of continuous improvement** that ensures your AI systems become more reliable over time.
## Platform Capabilities
Explore the core features that power your AI development lifecycle:
Capture and visualize every step of your AI application with distributed tracing.
Test changes with offline experiments and curated datasets before production.
Track metrics with dashboards and get instant alerts when quality degrades.
Run automated evals on traces to monitor quality and catch issues early.
Collect expert feedback and turn qualitative insights into labeled datasets.
Centrally manage and version prompts across UI and code.
## Open Standards, Open Ecosystem
HoneyHive is natively built on **OpenTelemetry**, making it fully agnostic across models, frameworks, and clouds. Integrate seamlessly with your existing AI stack with no vendor lock-in.
Works with any LLM—OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, open-source, and more.
Native support for LangChain, CrewAI, Google ADK, AWS Strands, and more.
Deploy on AWS, GCP, Azure, or on-premises—works anywhere.
OpenTelemetry-native for interoperability and future-proof infrastructure.

# Creating Alerts
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/monitoring/alerts/alerts
Alerts help you detect critical issues and catch metric drift before it impacts users. Proactively monitor eval scores, guardrail violations, user feedback, latency, cost, or any custom metric.
## Alert Page Components
* The **chart** displays a real-time preview of your alert. Adjusting the date does not impact the alert configuration
* The **right panel** is where you configure the alert or view the saved configuration
* **Action buttons** at the top allow you to pause, mute, resolve, or delete the alert
* **Recent activity** at the bottom shows a list of triggered events for this alert
## Quick Start: Building Your First Alert
Give your alert a clear name and description so your team knows what it monitors.
Select how often to evaluate your alert:
* **Hourly**: Checked every hour for immediate detection
* **Daily**: Checked every hour but evaluated over daily periods
* **Weekly**: Checked daily but evaluated over weekly periods
* **Monthly**: Checked daily but evaluated over monthly periods
*Note: More frequent checking means faster detection, even for longer evaluation periods.*
**Event Type**: Choose the data source for your alert
* **Models**: Individual LLM API calls and completions
* **Sessions**: Complete user conversations or workflows
* **Tools**: Function calls and external integrations
* **Chains**: Multi-step workflows and complex pipelines
**Event Filters**: Narrow down to specific segments (optional)
* Filter by event name, tenant, or any custom metadata
* Example: Only monitor production traffic or specific model versions
**Metric**: What to measure (latency, error rate, custom evaluator scores, etc.)
**Aggregation**: How to summarize the data
* **COUNT**: Total number of events
* **AVERAGE**: Mean value across events
* **P90/P95/P99**: Percentile values for performance monitoring
* **SUM**: Total of all values
* **MIN/MAX**: Extreme values
* **MEDIAN**: Middle value
**For Aggregate Alerts**: Set the threshold value and comparison operator
* Example: "Average latency > 2 seconds"
**For Drift Alerts**: Set the percentage change threshold
* Example: "Current period is 25% worse than previous period"
**Resolution Threshold**: Optionally set when the alert should auto-resolve (defaults to the inverse of your trigger threshold)
* **Channel**: Email (Slack, Teams, PagerDuty coming soon)
* **Recipients**: Choose specific team members or notify all project members
* Get rich notifications with actual values and direct links to investigate
## Managing Your Alerts
Once your alerts are running, you can manage them from the main alerts page. Each alert shows its current status and recent activity.

# Overview
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/monitoring/alerts/alerts_overview
The alerts feature helps you stay on top of your LLM application's performance by automatically monitoring key metrics and notifying you when things go wrong. Whether you're tracking error rates, response times, or custom evaluation scores, alerts ensure you catch issues before they impact your users.
### What You Can Monitor
* **Performance metrics**: Latency, error rates, and API response times
* **Quality metrics**: Evaluator scores, safety violations, and content quality
* **Business metrics**: Usage costs, request volumes, and user satisfaction
* **Custom fields**: Any metric or metadata field in your events and sessions
### Understanding Alert States
* **Active**: Normal monitoring - alert is checking thresholds regularly
* **Triggered**: Threshold exceeded, notifications sent, investigation needed
* **Resolved**: Issue cleared, alert returning to normal monitoring
* **Paused**: Monitoring temporarily stopped (manual action required to resume)
* **Muted**: Still monitoring but notifications disabled
### Alert Types
**Aggregate Alerts**: Monitor when metrics cross absolute thresholds (e.g., "Alert when average toxicity score exceeds 30%")

Triggered --> Resolved: Resolve manually
Triggered --> Resolved: Current bucket within resolution threshold relative to baseline
Resolved --> Active: Stays within resolution threshold relative to baseline
Active --> Paused: Pause
Paused --> Active: Resume
```
Alerts automatically transition between states based on metric values and can be manually paused/resumed as needed. The state transitions are evaluated for each time bucket (hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly).
### Alert Actions
**Pause an Alert**
* Temporarily stop monitoring (useful during maintenance)
* No threshold checks or notifications until resumed
* Keeps all configuration for easy restart
**Mute an Alert**
* Continue monitoring but silence notifications
* Alert still evaluates and tracks state changes
* Perfect when you're already aware of an ongoing issue
**Resolve an Alert**
* Manually clear a triggered alert
* Moves back to active monitoring immediately
* Sends resolution notification to keep team informed
**Delete an Alert**
* Permanently remove the alert and all its history
* Cannot be undone - use carefully
* Clean up alerts that are no longer relevant
## Investigating Triggered Alerts
When an alert triggers, you'll receive a notification with:
* The actual metric value that caused the trigger
* A direct link to the alert investigation page
* Context about when the threshold was crossed
The alert page provides:
* **Real-time chart**: Visual trend showing how the metric changed over time
* **Triggering events**: Sample events that contributed to the alert
* **Historical context**: Previous triggers and patterns
* **Quick actions**: Resolve, mute, or escalate the alert
## Common Alert Patterns
**Error Rate Monitoring**
* Monitor when error rates spike above normal levels
* Set up both absolute thresholds (>5%) and drift detection (50% increase)
**Performance SLA Monitoring**
* Track P95 latency to ensure user experience remains smooth
* Alert when response times exceed acceptable limits
**Cost Control**
* Monitor daily API spend to prevent budget overruns
* Set both warning and critical thresholds
**Quality Assurance**
* Track evaluation scores to catch model performance degradation
* Alert on safety violations or content quality issues
## Tips for Effective Alerting
1. **Start with critical metrics**: Focus on what directly impacts users first
2. **Avoid alert fatigue**: Set appropriate thresholds that indicate real problems
3. **Use both types**: Combine absolute thresholds with drift detection for comprehensive coverage
4. **Test your alerts**: Verify they trigger correctly and provide actionable information
5. **Review regularly**: Adjust thresholds as your application evolves

# Creating Custom Charts
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/monitoring/charts
How to use HoneyHive's query builder interface to monitor performance and drive systematic improvements at scale.
## Quick Start: Building Your First Chart
Creating insightful visualizations in HoneyHive is straightforward. Follow these steps to start monitoring your LLM application performance:
1. **Access the Chart Builder**
* Click "New Chart" in your Dashboard, or
* Navigate to the "Discover" tab from the sidebar
2. **Select Your Data Source**
* Choose from three data scopes:
* **Sessions**: Full user interactions/traces (entire conversations)
* **Completions**: Individual LLM calls
* **All Events**: Any tracked step in your pipeline, including tool calls
3. **Configure Your Visualization**
* **Event**: Select which specific event type to analyze (default: All Sessions/Completions/Events)
* **Metric**: Choose what to measure (e.g., Request Volume, Duration, Cost, or custom evaluators)
* **Aggregation**: Decide how to calculate (Sum, Average, Median, 99th Percentile, etc.)
4. **Refine Your Analysis (Optional)**
* **Filter**: Narrow down to specific data segments (e.g., `source = "production"`)
* **Group By**: Split results by properties (e.g., `prompt_version`, `model`, \`user\_tier)
* **Time Range**: Set your analysis window (1d, 7d, 30d, etc.)
## Understanding Your Data
To build effective charts, it's crucial to understand the data components available in HoneyHive:
### Metrics
Metrics are the numerical values you'll visualize in charts:
1. **Usage Metrics**
* `Request Volume`: Queries over time. Spot usage spikes or drops.
* `Cost`: Direct expenses. See if that new feature is breaking the bank.
* `Duration`: System latency. Because slow responses kill engagement.
2. **Evaluators**
* Definition: Your custom quality checks, either Python or LLM-based.
* Requirements: Must return `float` or `boolean` to chart.
* Examples:
* `Keyword Presence` (boolean): "Does every product review mention the product?"
* `Coherence Score` (float): "How logically sound are multi-turn conversations?"
3. **User Feedback**
* Definition: The voice of your users, quantified.
* Requirements: `float` or `boolean` inputs.
* Examples:
* `Usefulness Rating` (float): "On a scale of 1-5, how useful was this response?"
* `Used in Report` (boolean): "Did the user actually use this in their report?"
### Properties
Properties provide context for your metrics. All properties in the [data model](/schema-overview) such as `config`, `user properties`, `feedback`, `metrics`, and `metadata` can be used to slice and dice your data.
Metrics chart performance. Properties unveil the context behind that performance. Both are crucial for exploratory data analysis.
## Chart Types in Detail
Each chart type in HoneyHive focuses on different parts of your LLM pipeline:
### Completion Charts
* **Focus**: Individual LLM calls.
* **Key Metrics**: `cost`, `duration`, `tokens`, `errors`, and any specified evaluators.
* **Example Use Case**:
* Hypothesis: "Longer user messages cause more token waste."
* Test: Chart `Average Unused Output Tokens` grouped by `binned_input_length`.
### Session Charts
* **Focus**: Full user interactions and entire traces.
* **Key Metrics**: `User Turns`, `Session Duration`, `Avg User Rating`, `Agent Trajectory`.
* **Example Use Case**:
* Hypothesis: "Agents start looping after `n` turns."
* Test: Chart `Agent Trajectory Evaluator` grouped by `Number of turns`.
### Event Charts
* **Focus**: Specific steps or tools.
* **Key Metrics**: `Retrieval Latency`, `Synthesis Quality`, `Tool Choice Accuracy`.
* **Example Use Case**:
* Hypothesis: "Our reranker is the bottleneck in high-load scenarios."
* Test: Chart `99th Percentile Rerank Time` vs. `Requests per Minute`.
## Advanced Chart Building Techniques
* **Process**: Pick chart type, then a relevant metric.
* **Real-world Usage**:
* Don't just track `Request Volume`. Ask: "Is volume growing faster for paid or freemium?"
* Beyond `Cost`, ponder: "Is cost per successful session decreasing over time?"
* **Key Functions**:
* `Average`: Typical case. "What's our usual response time?"
* `99th Percentile`: Edge cases. "How bad does it get for our unluckiest users?"
* `Percentage True`: For booleans. "What % of responses are factually correct?"
* **Real-world Usage**:
* `Average` is good, but `Median` might better represent a skewed distribution.
* Watch both `Average` and `99th Percentile` to catch issues averages hide.
* **Filtering**:
* Syntax: `property operator value`. E.g., `industry == "finance"`.
* Examples:
* `topic_category != "smalltalk"` to focus on core use cases.
* `embedding_model == "v2" AND date > model_switch_date` for before/after analysis.
* **Grouping**:
* Syntax: Select properties. E.g., `prompt_template`, `user_tier`.
* Examples:
* `prompt_template` to see which prompts waste tokens.
* `user_tier` and `topic_category` to see if premium users ask harder questions.

# Overview
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/monitoring/overview
Connect your application to HoneyHive and start monitoring your application performance in production.
Once you have integrated our SDK to your application and started logging traces, user feedback and metadata, you can start analyzing cost, latency and performance metrics in the Monitoring dashboard.
### How it works
HoneyHive aggregates all your production data—traces, evaluations, and user feedback—in one place. This unified view lets you:
* **Detect Failures:** Catch anomalies across your cost, usage, and quality metrics.
* **Set Up Proactive Monitoring:** Create automated alerts to notify you when metrics exceed thresholds or drift from expected values.
* **Form Hypotheses:** "I think response quality drops for after 5 agent actions." "Our new RAG might be causing unintended hallucinations."
* **Explore Your Data:** Craft queries to validate or refute these hypotheses in real-time.

# Using Prompts in Code
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/prompts/deploy
How to deploy prompts to specific environments and export them for use in your application.
HoneyHive allows you to manage your prompts in HoneyHive instead of your codebase and deploy your saved prompts to specific `env` variables. This allows your domain experts to independently iterate on and deploy prompts without needing any technical skills.
This guide will walk through available environments, how to deploy a prompt to a specific environment within the app, and how to export and use these prompts in your application.
### Available Environments
Each environment is specific to a project and can be used to automatically fetch the latest deployed prompt version. By default, we offer the below 3 environments:
1. `dev`: For development-related tasks such as testing, debugging, etc.
2. `staging`: For staging your prompt changes
3. `prod`: For managing your production instance
### Deploying Prompts
**Expected Time**: Less than a minute
To deploy a prompt, simply navigate to `Registry` within Studio. Here, you can select any of your saved prompts and deploy it to a specific `env`.
### Integrating with your application
After creating a desired prompt and deploying it, you'll need to add it to your codebase to use in development or production. We have two primary suggested flows for being able to export and use your prompts:
1. **SDK-based export (with caching)**
2. **YAML file export**
#### 1. SDK-based export
You can fetch your deployed prompts using our `GET Configurations` API. This method allows you to dynamically retrieve the latest version of your prompts directly from HoneyHive.
##### Basic SDK Usage
Here are examples of how to use the API in Python and TypeScript.
The `env` and `name` parameters are optional below.
* **Fetching all prompts**: If only the `project` is specified, all prompts in the project will be returned.
* **Fetching `prod` deployed version**: By setting `env` to `operations.env.PROD` (Python) or `Env.Prod` (JS/TS), the prompt deployed to the `prod` environment will be returned.
* **Fetching prompts deployed to other environments**: Specifying a particular environment will fetch the prompt for that specific environment.
* **Fetching a specific prompt**: Specifying a name will fetch that exact prompt.
```python Python theme={null}
import honeyhive
from honeyhive.models import operations
hhai = honeyhive.HoneyHive(
bearer_auth="HONEYHIVE_API_KEY_HERE",
server_url="HONEYHIVE_SERVER_URL" # Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
)
def get_deployed_prompt(project_name, environment=operations.env.PROD, prompt_name=None):
res = hhai.configurations.get_configurations(
project=project_name,
env=environment, # optional
name=prompt_name # optional
)
# fetch a prompt list
prompts = res.configurations
# fetching a single prompt
return res.configurations[0]
prompt = get_deployed_prompt(
"PROJECT_NAME_HERE",
operations.env.PROD,
"OPTIONAL_PROMPT_NAME"
)
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
import { HoneyHive } from "honeyhive";
import { Env } from "honeyhive/models/operations";
const hhai = new HoneyHive({
bearerAuth: "HONEYHIVE_API_KEY_HERE",
});
async function getDeployedPrompt(projectName, environment=Env.Prod, promptName=null) {
const project: string = projectName;
const env: Env = environment;
const name: string | null = promptName;
const res = await hhai.configurations.getConfigurations(
project,
env,
name
);
// full prompt list
const prompts = res;
const prompt = prompts[0];
return prompt;
}
const prompt = await getDeployedPrompt(
"PROJECT_NAME_HERE",
Env.Prod,
"OPTIONAL_PROMPT_NAME"
);
```
#### Cached SDK export
To reduce the number of API calls and improve performance, we recommend implementing a caching mechanism. Here are examples using LRU (Least Recently Used) cache in both Python and TypeScript:
For typescript, you'll have to install the package `lru-cache`
```python Python theme={null}
from functools import lru_cache
import honeyhive
from honeyhive.models import operations
hhai = honeyhive.HoneyHive(
bearer_auth="HONEYHIVE_API_KEY_HERE",
server_url="HONEYHIVE_SERVER_URL" # Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
)
@lru_cache(maxsize=100)
def get_deployed_prompt(project_name, environment=operations.env.PROD, prompt_name=None):
res = hhai.configurations.get_configurations(
project=project_name,
env=environment, # optional
name=prompt_name # optional
)
# fetch a prompt list
prompts = res.configurations
# fetching a single prompt
return prompts[0]
# Usage
prompt = get_deployed_prompt(
"PROJECT_NAME_HERE",
operations.env.PROD,
"OPTIONAL_PROMPT_NAME"
)
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
import LRU from 'lru-cache';
import { HoneyHive } from "honeyhive";
import { Env, GetConfigurationsRequest } from "honeyhive/dist/models/operations";
const hhai = new HoneyHive({
bearerAuth: "HONEYHIVE_API_KEY_HERE",
});
const cache = new LRU({ max: 100 });
async function getDeployedPrompt(projectName: string, environment: Env = Env.Prod, promptName: string | null = null) {
const key = `${projectName}:${environment}:${promptName}`;
if (cache.has(key)) {
return cache.get(key);
}
const project: string = projectName;
const env: Env = environment;
const name: string | null = promptName;
const res = await hhai.configurations.getConfigurations(
project,
env,
name
);
if (res.statusCode == 200) {
const prompt = res[0];
cache.set(key, prompt);
return prompt;
}
return null;
}
// Usage
const deployedPrompt = await getDeployedPrompt('my_project', Env.Dev, 'my_prompt');
```
By implementing caching, you can significantly reduce the number of API calls while still ensuring that your application has access to up-to-date prompt configurations.
#### 2. YAML file export
Another approach to exporting prompts is by saving them as YAML files and including them in your project. This method is useful when you want to version control your prompts with your codebase or when you prefer to have the prompt configurations directly in your codebase.
We recommend running this export flow in your production build process.
##### Exporting to YAML
Here's how you can export a prompt configuration to a YAML file using the HoneyHive SDK:
```python Python theme={null}
import yaml
from honeyhive import HoneyHive
from honeyhive.models import operations
# Initialize the SDK outside the function
s = HoneyHive(
bearer_auth="",
server_url="HONEYHIVE_SERVER_URL" # Optional / Required for self-hosted or dedicated deployments
)
def export_prompt_to_yaml(project, env, name):
res = s.configurations.get_configurations(
project=project,
env=env,
name=name
)
if res.configurations is not None:
prompt = res.configurations[0]
with open(f"{name}_config.yaml", 'w') as file:
yaml.dump(prompt, file)
print(f"Prompt configuration exported to {name}_config.yaml")
else:
print("Error: Failed to retrieve configuration")
# Usage
export_prompt_to_yaml("my_project", operations.Env.DEV, "my_prompt")
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
import * as fs from 'fs';
import * as yaml from 'js-yaml';
import { HoneyHive } from "honeyhive";
import { Env } from "honeyhive/dist/models/operations";
// Initialize the SDK outside the function
const hhai = new HoneyHive({
bearerAuth: "",
});
async function exportPromptToYaml(project: string, env: Env, name: string) {
try {
const res = await hhai.configurations.getConfigurations(project, env, name);
if (res.statusCode === 200 && res.configurations) {
const prompt = res.configurations[0];
const yamlStr = yaml.dump(prompt);
fs.writeFileSync(`${name}_config.yaml`, yamlStr, 'utf8');
console.log(`Prompt configuration exported to ${name}_config.yaml`);
} else {
console.error("Error: Failed to retrieve configuration");
}
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error:", error);
}
}
// Usage
exportPromptToYaml("my_project", Env.Dev, "my_prompt");
```
These functions will fetch the prompt configuration using the HoneyHive SDK and save it as a YAML file. You can later import it elsewhere for making calls to an LLM.
#### Reading YAML Configurations
Once you have exported your prompt configurations to YAML files, you can easily load them in your application. Here's how you can read the YAML files:
```python Python theme={null}
import yaml
def load_prompt_config(file_path):
with open(file_path, 'r') as file:
return yaml.safe_load(file)
# Usage
prompt_config = load_prompt_config('my_prompt_config.yaml')
# Use prompt_config in your application
```
```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
import * as fs from 'fs';
import * as yaml from 'js-yaml';
function loadPromptConfig(filePath: string) {
const fileContents = fs.readFileSync(filePath, 'utf8');
return yaml.load(fileContents) as any;
}
// Usage
const promptConfig = loadPromptConfig('my_prompt_config.yaml');
// Use promptConfig in your application
```
These functions allow you to load the YAML configuration files back into your application, making it easy to use the exported prompt configurations in your code.
### Conclusion
Whether you choose the SDK-based approach for real-time updates or the YAML file method for static configurations, HoneyHive provides flexible options for integrating your prompts into your application. Choose the method that best fits your development workflow and application requirements.
# Managing Prompts
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/prompts/overview
Test, version and manage your prompts in the Studio.
Playground is a scratch pad to quickly iterate on prompts & "vibe-check" models.
In this guide, you'll learn how to make the most of the HoneyHive Playground, where you can experiment with new prompts, models, OpenAI functions and external tools.
HoneyHive allows you to define, version and manage your prompt templates and model configurations within each project.
A prompt-model configuration refers to a combination of prompt, model and hyperparameter settings unique to a particular version. Throughout our docs, we may use the term "config" or "prompt configuration" to refer to a prompt-model configuration.
### What is the Playground?
The Playground is a UI that connects with your LLMs wherever they are hosted & allows you to quickly iterate on prompts built on top of them.
The way it calls your LLM provider is
1. We ask you to configure your provider secrets (that are encrypted & stored in your browser cache)
2. Based on the parameters & prompt specified in the UI, we craft an API request for your provider
3. We pass the secrets & the request to our proxy service which pings your provider
We trace cost, latency & calculate evaluators automatically on all requests from our proxy.
4. If the request was successful, we stream or print the response in the UI
5. If the request was unsuccessful, we show a full error description provided by the provider
To get started with the Playground, we will start by configuring a model provider.
### Configure a model provider
**Expected Time**: Few minutes
**Steps**
**Next Steps**
Congratulations, now you are ready to create prompts on top of your models in HoneyHive.
### Create your first prompt
**Expected time**: Few minutes
In the following tutorial, we use `AI Q&A bot` as the project, you can pick any project you want to create your prompt in instead.
HoneyHive uses `{{` and `}}` to denote a dynamic insertion field for a prompt. Dynamic variables are typically useful when inserting inputs from end-users or external context from tools such as vector databases.
### Version Management
Our first prompts are often simple prototypes that we end up changing very often.
1. HoneyHive automatically versions your prompts as you edit your prompt template and test new scenarios.
2. A new version is only created automatically when you run a test case against your edited prompt.
While HoneyHive automatically creates new versions as you iterate, you will need to give your version a name and click `Save` in order to save it as a prompt-model configuration.
### Iterating on a saved prompt
Our Playground support easy forking & saving to track variants you like while you keep changing the prompt.
**Expected time:** few minutes
**Steps**
### Open a prompt from a previous run
If you want to go back to a prompt you had already run, or open one from a trace that was logged externally, then you can simply click “Open In Playground” from that run’s view.
**Expected time**: few minutes
**Steps**
### Sharing and Collaboration
To share a saved prompt, simply press the `Share` button on the top right of the Playground.
This will copy a link to the saved prompt that you can share with your teammates.
### Using OpenAI Functions
1. Navigate to [**Tools**](https://app.honeyhive.ai/studio/tools) in the left sidebar.
2. Click `Add Tool` and select `OpenAI functions`.
3. Define your OpenAI function in a JSON format.
Learn more about OpenAI function schema [**here**](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/gpt/function-calling).
### Integrating Pinecone and SerpAPI
1. Navigate to [**Tools**](https://app.honeyhive.ai/studio/tools) in the left sidebar.
2. Click `Add Tool` and select `External Tool`.
3. Choose between SerpAPI and Pinecone in the dropdowns.
4. Add your API keys and other parameters specific to your Pinecone index.
### Using External Tools in the Playground
1. You can access the [**Playground**](https://app.honeyhive.ai/studio/playground) within the **Prompts** tab in the left sidebar.
2. To use an external tool in your prompt template, copy the tool you'd like to select.
We use `/ToolName{{query_name}}` as the convention to call a tool.
3. Paste it in your prompt template and start using.
### What’s next
Now that you’ve defined some prompt configurations in the Playground, learn more about how to evaluate and monitor different prompt configurations using HoneyHive.

# Schema Overview
Source: https://docs.honeyhive.ai/schema-overview
An overview of our data model for logging traces and events
HoneyHive combines logs, metrics, and traces into a unified data model, leveraging the concept of high cardinality to provide a comprehensive view of your AI system's performance and behavior. By consolidating these traditionally separate observability pillars into a single, flexible event-based structure, we enable developers to gain deeper insights and perform more sophisticated analyses.
This approach offers several key benefits:
* **Unified Context:** Each event captures not just raw data, but also the surrounding context, allowing for more meaningful correlations and insights.
* **Flexible Querying:** High cardinality enables precise filtering and aggregation across multiple dimensions, facilitating complex analyses and troubleshooting.
* **Scalability:** The event-based model scales efficiently with the growing complexity of AI systems and the increasing volume of observability data.
* **Faster Debugging:** The ability to trace a request through various components while simultaneously accessing logs and metrics streamlines the debugging process.
## Introducing Events
The base unit of data in HoneyHive is called an `event`, which represents a span in a trace. A root event in a trace is of the type `session`, while all non-root events in a trace can be of 3 core types - `model`, `tool` and `chain`.
All events have a parent-child relationship, except `session` event, which being a root event does not have any parents.
* `session`: A root event used to group together multiple `model`, `tool`, and `chain` events into a single trace. This is achieved by having a common `session_id` across all children.
* `model` events: Used to track the execution of any LLM requests.
* `tool` events: Used to track execution of any deterministic functions like requests to vector DBs, requests to an external API, regex parsing, document reranking, and more.
* `chain` events: Used to group together multiple `model` and `tool` events into composable units that can be evaluated and monitored independently. Typical examples of chains include retrieval pipelines, post-processing pipelines, and more.
Here's a visual representation of the event hierarchy:
All events have the following properties:
* `event_id`: A unique identifier for the event.
* `event_type`: The type of event. Can be `model`, `tool` or `chain`.
* `event_name`: The name of the event. This can be the model name, the tool name, etc.
* `source`: The source of the event. This can be "production", "dev", etc.
* `session_id`: A unique identifier for the session. For a session, all events have the same `session_id`.
* `project_id`: A unique identifier for the project. For a project, all events have the same `project_id`.
* `start_time`: The UTC timestamp (in milliseconds) when the event started.
* `end_time`: The UTC timestamp (in milliseconds) when the event ended.
* `duration`: The duration of the event in milliseconds. This can be the model latency, the tool latency, etc.
* `config`: The configuration of the event. This can be the model configuration, the tool configuration, etc.
* `inputs`: The inputs to the event. This can be the prompt, the vector query, etc.
* `outputs`: The outputs of the event. This can be a completion, a vector response, an API response, etc.
* `error`: The error message of the event. This can be a rate limit error, failed retrieval error, etc.
* `metadata`: Additional metadata about the event. This can be the product metadata, error metadata, etc.
* `user_properties`: The user properties of the event. This can be the user id, country, tier, etc.
* `metrics`: The metrics associated with the event. This can be model metrics, tool metrics, etc.
* `feedback`: The feedback for the event. This can be the user feedback, the model feedback, etc.
### Session Events
Session events are used to track the execution of your application. These can be used to capture
* Session configuration like the application version, environment, etc.
* Session metrics like session latency, session throughput, etc.
* Session properties like user id, country, tier, etc.
* Session feedback like overall session feedback, etc.
#### Schema for Session Events

See authorization guide for more information.\nScopes: Defines scopes that may be granted to access token.\nRedirect URIs: A list of URIs telling Ramp where to send back the users in the authorization process.\nRedirect URI format\nNote that redirect URIs must either use https protocol or be in localhost.\n\n✅ https://example.com/callback is valid\n❎ http://example.com/callback is invalid\n✅ http://localhost:8000/callback is valid\n\n\n\n\nOAuth 2.0\nRamp API uses the OAuth 2.0 protocol ↗ to handle authorization and access control.\n\nWhich grant type should you use?\nIf you are a Ramp customer and your application only accesses your own Ramp data, then you can use either client credentials grant or authorization code grant. If your application is used by other Ramp customers, the authorization code grant is required.\n\nClient Credentials Grant\nClient Credentials ↗ grant can be used to get an access token outside of the context of a user. It is typically used by applications to directly access their own resources, not on behalf of a user.\n\nTo obtain a token, make a request to POST /developer/v1/token. You must include an Authorization header containing a base-64 representation of client_id:client_secret.\n\n\nShell\n\nJavaScript\n\nPython\n\ncurl --location --request POST 'https://api.ramp.com/developer/v1/token' \\\n --header 'Authorization: Basic ' \\\n --header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \\\n --data-urlencode 'grant_type=client_credentials' \\\n --data-urlencode 'scope=business:read transactions:read' \nThe response JSON payload contains a ready-to-use access_token. The Client Credentials Grant does not produce refresh tokens - you manually obtain new access tokens before the existing ones expire.\n\nAuthorization Code Grant\nThere are three parties involved in the Authorization Code flow -- the client (your application), the server (Ramp) and the user (data owner). The overall flow follows these steps:\n\nYour application sends the user to authenticate with Ramp.\nThe user sees the authorization prompt and approves the app's request for data access.\nThe user is redirected back via a redirect_uri with a temporary authorization_code.\nYour application exchanges the authorization_code for an access_token.\nRamp verifies the params and returns an access_token.\nYour application gets a new access_token with the refresh_token."

### Model Events
Model events represent a request made to an LLM. These can be used to capture
* Model configuration like model name, model hyperparameters, prompt template, etc.
* Model metrics like completion token count, cost, tokens per second, etc.
* API-level metrics like request latency, rate limit errors, etc.

Properties marked as `reserved` are required by HoneyHive for core functionality:
* Model configuration, inputs, and outputs properties are used for rendering and replaying requests in the HoneyHive playground
* Token counts and cost metadata are used for aggregating session-level analytics
All other properties are recommendations based on our auto-tracing system and can be customized based on your needs.
