The code in the docs is not working directly, and there is no guide about how to set api keys and base urls, nothing is clear, very confusing quick start and no further details about how to actually run the code no guidance

@angus-langchain Thank you for following up. I was experiencing difficulties with API key configuration while following the integration guide at https://docs.smith.langchain.com/observability/how_to_guides/trace_with_openai_agents_sdk for integrating LangSmith Trace Processor with the OpenAI Agents SDK.

The main issue was that the integration page lacked clear instructions on:

  • Where to obtain the required API keys
  • How to properly configure the API keys
  • The specific environment variable names needed

After conducting additional research, I discovered that I needed to generate an API key and set it as LANGSMITH_API_KEY=, which resolved the integration issues.

While I was ultimately able to get it working, I believe the integration page could be improved by including clearer guidance on API key setup and configuration, or links where we can access information about this. This would help other developers avoid similar confusion and streamline the integration process.
