| OTEL_SDK_DISABLED | Disable the SDK for all signals | false | Boolean value. If "true", a no-op SDK implementation will be used for all telemetry signals. Any other value or absence of the variable will have no effect and the SDK will remain enabled. This setting has no effect on propagators configured through the OTEL_PROPAGATORS variable.|

| OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES | Key-value pairs to be used as resource attributes | See [Resource semantic conventions](resource/semantic_conventions/README.md#semantic-attributes-with-sdk-provided-default-value) for details. | See [Resource SDK](./resource/sdk.md#specifying-resource-information-via-an-environment-variable) for more details. |
| OTEL_SERVICE_NAME | Sets the value of the [`service.name`](./resource/semantic_conventions/README.md#service) resource attribute | | If `service.name` is also provided in `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES`, then `OTEL_SERVICE_NAME` takes precedence. |
