How to Add a Correlation ID to Logging Records in Python
Attach a unique correlation ID to every log record using a custom logging.Filter, making distributed request tracking traceable.
import logging
import uuid
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
@dataclass
class CorrelationIdFilter(logging.Filter):
correlation_id: str = field(default_factory=lambda: str(uuid.uuid4()))
def filter(self, record: logging.LogRecord) -> bool:
record.correlation_id = self.correlation_id
re…Adding a Correlation ID to Log Context in Python
Injects a correlation ID into the logging context using a context manager and a custom log record factory so every log line includes the ID.
import logging
import uuid
from contextlib import contextmanager
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO, format='%(levelname)s | %(correlation_id)s | %(message)s')
@contextmanager
def correlation_id_context(correlation_id):
"""Temporarily inject a correlation_id into the logging context."""
