feat!: Update GraphQL span name convention #1389

Closed kaylareopelle closed 1 month ago

kaylareopelle commented 2 months ago

Fixes #1361

Changes

Due to concerns about high cardinality with the current span name format, use only the graphql.operation.type attribute for the span name. The higher cardinality attribute, graphql.operation.name can still be used in queries, as it is an attribute on the span. The original fallback span name, GraphQL Operation, is preserved.
