Research direction

Start by locating the HTTP and gRPC exporter configuration entry points and their existing tests. Check how exporter properties are exposed, then verify that both exporters accept the value "gzip" for compression. Done means users can enable GZip compression through each exporter’s public configuration.

Description

enhancement

otel-cpp 1.15.0 added a "compression" field in the gRPC and HTTP exporters, which can be set to "gzip" to enable GZip compression. We should expose this exporter property.
