Issue
I am having trouble getting continue_trace() to properly propagate the trace information.

I'm calling
continue_trace()but the trace headers do not seem to be applying
Resolution
continue_trace() returns the entire transaction with the trace headers, which you can then pass to start_transaction(). You will need to have the sentry_trace and baggage headers before hand before it is passed to continue_trace()
Here is an example of how continue_trace() could be used -
sentry_trace = "7f410df7108e49d5a9f5d3ae7327cf5c-ad7951df7af88a3e"
baggage = "sentry-trace_id=7f410df7108e49d5a9f5d3ae7327cf5c" transaction = sentry_sdk.continue_trace(
{"sentry-trace": sentry_trace, "baggage": baggage},
op="demo",
name="transaction"
) with sentry_sdk.start_transaction(transaction):
print("starting transaction")
