Complete Logging Control for Async Integration
February 26, 2025
We’ve enhanced our Python Asynchronous Logging integration with new methods to completely disable all logging to Helicone. This feature allows you to temporarily or permanently stop sending any data to our backend while maintaining your integration setup.
New Methods
disable_logging(): Completely disables all logging by shutting down the Traceloop SDKenable_logging(): Re-enables logging if it was previously disabled
This is different from the existing disable_content_tracing() which only omits request and response content but still sends other metrics. The new functionality gives you complete control over your data privacy and is only available when using Helicone’s async integration mode.
# Example usage
from helicone_async import HeliconeAsyncLogger
from openai import OpenAI
logger = HeliconeAsyncLogger(api_key=HELICONE_API_KEY)
logger.init()
# Completely disable all logging
logger.disable_logging()
# Your OpenAI calls here - no data sent to Helicone
# Later, re-enable logging if needed
logger.enable_logging()
