Choose the ingestion path that matches the system sending data to Parseable.

You can ingest data to Parseable in JSON format over HTTP(s). This means that any log agent, metric collector, or tracing library that can send data over HTTP in JSON format can be used to ingest data into Parseable. For log data you can use the HTTP output plugins of all the logging agents/shippers. You can also directly integrate Parseable with your application via the ingestion API.

Parseable also supports OTel native data ingestion via Protobuf over HTTP. OpenTelemetry-compatible agents and libraries can send logs, metrics, and traces to the signal-specific OTLP endpoints: /v1/logs, /v1/metrics, and /v1/traces. Parseable derives the telemetry signal type from the endpoint path and uses X-P-Stream to choose the destination dataset.
