Zipkin API

Zipkin API includes service and model definitions used for Zipkin-compatible services.

This repository includes OpenAPI Spec as well Protocol Buffers and Thrift interchange formats. As these IDL files are languagage agnostic, there are no compilation instructions needed or included.

Language independent interchange format for Zipkin transports

Protocol Buffers v3 - Requires Zipkin 2.8+ or similar to parse it.
Thrift - Deprecated as new clients should not generate this format

OpenApi (Http endpoint of the zipkin server)

/api/v1 - Still supported on zipkin-server
/api/v2 - Most recent and published here

Take a look at the example repository for how to use this.
