Description
Adds span links as is specified in the specs: a span can reference other spans, e.g. in other traces, without making them its parent.
sentry_sdk.start_span(..., links=[...]),span.add_link(link)andspan.add_links(links); with links being of the following format:{"trace_id", "span_id", "sampled"?, "attributes"?}linksNoOpSpanignores linksRelated docs update can be found here.
Why
An SQS/SNS consumer can receive a batch of records sent by several producers, each in its own trace. A span can only have one parent, so without links there's no way to connect the consumer each producer. With links the consumer span can point to each producer's trace.
