External HTTP calls meant to appear in tracing overview or not? #1450

I have integrated cloud tracing into our services running on GKE. When I look at traces they correctly show multiple spans for nested service calls, but only to other services in GKE. Given there are requests to SaaS providers, they aren't showing up at all.

Is it meant to also trace external service calls out of the box or not?

Oh actually now it works smooth! Sorry for the noise and thanks for the nice library 🥂
