 ### Usage
 
-Once enabled, all SDK calls will emit traces and metrics and the traces will correlate the SDK calls with the raw http calls made to Azure API's. To consume those traces, if are not doing it yet, you need to register an exporter of your choice such as [Azure App Insights](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/application-insights/opencensus-local-forwarder) or [Zipkin](https://opencensus.io/quickstart/go/tracing/#exporting-traces).
