# AppSignal for Python

AppSignal supports [Python] applications through [OpenTelemetry](#opentelemetry).

Once installed, the AppSignal package will send your application's error and performance data to AppSignal.

## OpenTelemetry

OpenTelemetry is an open-source initiative that streamlines and standardizes telemetry data collection.

OpenTelemetry supports multiple languages, including Python, and consists of multiple components: tracing, metrics, and logs. We support OpenTelemetry's tracing component in our Python integration for better error reporting and performance measurements.
