 If [Dynatrace OneAgent](https://www.dynatrace.com/platform/oneagent) is present, for example on SAP BTP CF, it will collect and transport the traces created by `@cap-js/telemetry` automatically.
 (Your app still needs to be bound to a Dynatrace instance, of course. However, `@dynatrace/oneagent-sdk` is not required.)
