Description
We are using Natchez for generating traces for AWS X-Ray. X-Ray allows logs to be attached to the traces being generated, provided the CloudWatch log group name is included in the traces sent to X-Ray through the daemon. However, Natchez does not currently support passing this property along with traces, and neither does the AWS X-Ray Daemon.
In the screenshot below, the log section is empty even though the logs have the trace ID and entity ID present

In the image above image log section is empty even though the logs has trace id and entityId present in the logs.
If the trace includes the following details:
"aws": {
"cloudwatch_logs": [
{
"log_group": ""
}
]
}
then logs will appear as shown below:

Proposed Solution:
Introduce a mechanism in Natchez to include the CloudWatch log group name in the trace annotations. Specifically, if a field named aws_group_name is present in the annotations, it should be added as the AWS CloudWatch log group in the trace.
have submitted a PR for the same.
Steps to Reproduce
- Use Natchez to send X-Ray traces and use the X-Ray Daemon as the collector.
- Add trace and span details in the logs.
3.Verify if the CloudWatch logs are included with the trace.
