## Distributed Tracing

You must configure Celery instrumentation across client and worker processes, to ensure worker-generated spans are linked to the parent spans in the caller process.

Let's extend the original example to showcase a distributed tracing setup, including both worker and client code with separate entrypoints. You can run the worker process with `celery -A tasks worker --loglevel=info`, and the client by executing `python tasks.py` from a separate terminal session:

```py title="tasks.py" hl_lines="6-11 19-22"
import logfire
from celery import Celery
from celery.signals import worker_init


@worker_init.connect()
def init_worker(*args, **kwargs):
logfire.configure(service_name="worker", distributed_tracing=True) # (1)!
logfire.instrument_celery()

app = Celery("tasks", broker="redis://localhost:6379/0")


@app.task
def add(x: int, y: int):
return x + y


if __name__ == "__main__": # (2)!
logfire.configure(service_name="client-app")

Suggested change
logfire.configure(service_name="client-app")
logfire.configure(service_name="client")

Then this can fit in a screenshot nicely, which should be added

logfire.instrument_celery()
add.delay(42, 50)
```

1. Mark the configuration as running in a distributed tracing environment. This is only required for the worker.

Explain in more detail and link to docs.

2. Running the file directly will simulate a client application that calls the Celery task.
