fix(openai): preserve non-ASCII characters in gen_ai span attributes#4428mayuriphad wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
The OpenAI instrumentation serialized gen_ai.input.messages, gen_ai.output.messages and gen_ai.tool.definitions with json.dumps(), which defaults to ensure_ascii=True and escapes any non-ASCII text (e.g. Cyrillic, CJK) into \uXXXX sequences instead of preserving the raw UTF-8 text. Pass ensure_ascii=False to every json.dumps() call that builds these span attributes across the chat, completion, embeddings, assistants, responses and realtime wrappers, matching the fix already applied to the LangChain instrumentation for the same issue (traceloop#3696). Fixes traceloop#4426
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe OpenAI instrumentation now preserves non-ASCII characters when serializing message, reasoning summary, and tool definition span attributes. New trace tests verify Cyrillic text remains unescaped. ChangesOpenAI Unicode serialization
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change preserves non-ASCII text in most OpenAI span attributes, but Realtime session and output attributes may still escape Unicode, so affected traces can remain less readable; the PR is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner follow-up or a small completion fix.

Hi maintainers — just checking in on this PR since it hasn't had a maintainer review yet. Happy to make any changes needed; let me know if anything's unclear or if I should split/rework it. Thanks for your time! |
Problem
The OpenAI instrumentation escapes non-ASCII text (e.g. Cyrillic, CJK) into
\uXXXXsequences in thegen_ai.input.messages,gen_ai.tool.definitions, andgen_ai.output.messagesspan attributes, instead of preserving the raw UTF-8 text.Root cause
All of these attributes are built with
json.dumps(...), which defaults toensure_ascii=Trueand escapes every non-ASCII code point.Fix
Pass
ensure_ascii=Falseto everyjson.dumps()call in the OpenAI instrumentation package that buildsgen_ai.input.messages,gen_ai.output.messages, orgen_ai.tool.definitions, across the chat, completion, embeddings, assistants, responses, and realtime wrappers. This mirrors the fix already applied to the LangChain instrumentation for the identical issue in #3696.Testing
tests/traces/test_non_ascii.pywith unit tests (no VCR cassette / live API call needed) that call_set_input_messages,_set_output_messages, and_set_tool_definitions_jsondirectly with a mocked span and assert Cyrillic text round-trips without\uescaping. Verified these tests fail before the fix and pass after.ruff checkon all changed files — clean.Fixes #4426
