OTLP HTTP Exporter Should Parse response based on content-type header
Describe your environment
OS: Linux Python version: 3.12 SDK version: 1.24 API version: 1.24
What happened?
Check out https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-proto/issues/640
The response from the HTTP OTLP Exporters should be parsed based on the content-type header in the response.
Currently it prints out resp.text
But that mangles things a bit if the response is proto encoded.
I think the response can also be in json ?
For reference here is how the collector parses proto
Steps to Reproduce
Follow the instructions to call telemetry.googleapis.com here: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/opentelemetry-operations-python/tree/main/samples/otlptrace via python3 example_http.py. Be sure to skip the step setting the environment variables export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="gcp.project_id=<project-id>".
You will see an error returned that looks a bit weird because it is proto encoded, but it is just printed as text.
Expected Result
Expect error response to be parsed based on content-type encoding
Actual Result
Error response always parsed as text
Additional context
No response
