DESCRIBE YOUR PR

Update the Go OpenTelemetry docs to reflect the migration away from the deprecated span processor setup and toward OTLP.

This updates the landing page and shared Go snippets to:

  • recommend sentryotlp.NewTraceExporter() for direct-to-Sentry tracing
  • document sentryotel.NewErrorLinkingIntegration() for linking Sentry errors to OTel traces
  • call out the collector-based path and link to the OTLP collector setup docs

IS YOUR CHANGE URGENT?

  • Urgent deadline (GA date, etc.):
  • Other deadline:
  • None: Not urgent, can wait up to 1 week+

SLA

  • Added reviewer

PRE-MERGE CHECKLIST

  • Checked Vercel preview for correctness, including links
  • PR was reviewed and approved by any necessary SMEs (subject matter experts)
  • PR was reviewed and approved by a member of the Sentry docs team

Update the Go OpenTelemetry landing page and shared setup snippets to
prefer OTLP export over the deprecated span processor integration.
Document the direct-to-Sentry exporter path and the collector-based
path so Go users have a clear migration target.
