# Observability & Tracing with Langfuse |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RAGFlow ships with a built-in [Langfuse](https://langfuse.com) integration so that you can **inspect and debug every retrieval and generation step** of your RAG pipelines in near real-time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Langfuse stores traces, spans and prompt payloads in a purpose-built observability backend and offers filtering and visualisations on top. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
:::info NOTE |
|
|
|
• RAGFlow **≥ 0.18.0** (contains the Langfuse connector) |
|
|
|
• A Langfuse workspace (cloud or self-hosted) with a _Project Public Key_ and _Secret Key_ |
|

## 1. Collect your Langfuse credentials |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Sign in to your Langfuse dashboard. |
|
|
|
2. Open **Settings ▸ Projects** and either create a new project or select an existing one. |
|
|
|
3. Copy the **Public Key** and **Secret Key**. |
|
|
|
4. Note the Langfuse **host** (e.g. `https://cloud.langfuse.com`). Use the base URL of your own installation if you self-host. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> The keys are _project-scoped_: one pair of keys is enough for all environments that should write into the same project. |
|
|
|
|

## 2. Add the keys to RAGFlow |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RAGFlow stores the credentials _per tenant_. You can configure them either via the web UI or the HTTP API. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to RAGFlow and click your avatar in the top-right corner. |
|
|
|
2. Select **API ▸ Scroll down to the bottom ▸ Langfuse Configuration**. |
|
|
|
3. Fill in you Langfuse **Host**, **Public Key** and **Secret Key**. |
|
|
|
4. Click **Save**. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once saved, RAGFlow starts emitting traces automatically – no code change required. |
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
## 3. Run a pipeline and watch the traces |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Execute any chat or retrieval pipeline in RAGFlow (e.g. the Quickstart demo). |
|
|
|
2. Open your Langfuse project ▸ **Traces**. |
|
|
|
3. Filter by **name ~ `ragflow-*`** (RAGFlow prefixes each trace with `ragflow-`). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For every user request you will see: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• a **trace** representing the overall request |
|
|
|
• **spans** for retrieval, ranking and generation steps |
|
|
|
• the complete **prompts**, **retrieved documents** and **LLM responses** as metadata |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

:::tip NOTE |
|
|
|
Use Langfuse's diff view to compare prompt versions or drill down into long-running retrievals to identify bottlenecks. |
