Get Started

API Keys

You require a Langfuse public and secret key to get started. Sign up here and find them in your project settings.

Ingesting Data · Instrumenting Your Application

Note: We recommend using our fully async, typed SDKs that allow you to instrument any LLM application with any underlying model. They are available in Python & JS/TS. The SDKs will always be the most fully featured and stable way to ingest data into Langfuse.

You may want to use another integration to get started quickly or implement a use case that we do not yet support. However, we recommend to migrate to the Langfuse SDKs over time to ensure performance and stability.

See our the → Quickstart to get started in integrating Langfuse.

Integrations

Integration Supports Description
SDK - recommended Python, JS/TS Manual instrumentation using the SDKs for full flexibility.
OpenAI SDK Python Automated instrumentation via drop-in replacement of OpenAI SDK.

Security & Privacy

We take data security and privacy seriously. Please refer to our Security and Privacy page for more information.

Telemetry

By default, Langfuse automatically reports basic usage statistics of self-hosted instances to a centralized server (PostHog).

This helps us to:

  1. Understand how Langfuse is used and improve the most relevant features.
  2. Track overall usage for internal and external (e.g. fundraising) reporting.

None of the data is shared with third parties and does not include any sensitive information. We want to be super transparent about this and you can find the exact data we collect here.

You can opt-out by setting TELEMETRY_ENABLED=false.
