The feature is configured entirely within OBI — no application code changes or redeployment needed. A policy-based config controls which headers are included, excluded, or obfuscated (e.g., masking authorization tokens while exposing x-tenant-id). This lets teams filter traces by enriched attributes to quickly isolate which customer cohort is affected during an incident. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
