# `Otel.Trace.SpanLimits`
[🔗](https://github.com/yangbancode/otel/blob/main/lib/otel/trace/span_limits.ex#L1)

Configurable limits for Span data.

Prevents unbounded growth of span attributes, events, and links.
Excess items are silently discarded. A log message SHOULD be
emitted at most once per span when items are discarded
(`trace/sdk.md` L873-L876).

Construct via `Otel.Trace.SpanLimits.new/1`.

# `t`

```elixir
@type t() :: %Otel.Trace.SpanLimits{
  attribute_count_limit: pos_integer(),
  attribute_per_event_limit: pos_integer(),
  attribute_per_link_limit: pos_integer(),
  attribute_value_length_limit: pos_integer() | :infinity,
  event_count_limit: pos_integer(),
  link_count_limit: pos_integer()
}
```

# `new`

```elixir
@spec new(opts :: map()) :: t()
```

**SDK** — Construct span limits. Defaults match
`trace/sdk.md` §SpanLimits.
