Stack trace

(opentelemetry.attributes) WARNING: Invalid type NoneType for attribute value. Expected one of ['bool', 'str', 'bytes', 'int', 'float'] or a sequence of those types

In _set_job_attributes() function (https://github.com/googleapis/python-bigquery/blob/main/google/cloud/bigquery/opentelemetry_tracing.py#L113) you are passing parent_job_id argument which might be None. None is invalid attribute type for opentelemetry: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python/blob/45a2b350e54da9f99a718148d257ee4e28b1d8e4/opentelemetry-api/src/opentelemetry/attributes/__init__.py#L69-L79

faced the same issue while trying to integrate kafka and opentelemetry.

# producer.py
from tracing import instrument
instrument()
from kafka import KafkaProducer
producer = KafkaProducer(bootstrap_servers='kafka:9092')
for _ in range(1):
 producer.send('foobar', b'some_message_bytes')
 producer.flush()

#consumer.py
from tracing import instrument
instrument()
from kafka import KafkaConsumer
consumer = KafkaConsumer('foobar', bootstrap_servers='kafka:9092')
for msg in consumer:
 print(msg)

# tracing.py
from opentelemetry import trace
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import TracerProvider
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace.export import (
 SimpleSpanProcessor,
 ConsoleSpanExporter,
)
from opentelemetry.instrumentation.kafka import KafkaInstrumentor
def instrument(*args, **kwargs):
 provider = TracerProvider()
 simple_processor = SimpleSpanProcessor(ConsoleSpanExporter())
 provider.add_span_processor(simple_processor)
 trace.set_tracer_provider(provider)
 KafkaInstrumentor().instrument()
