Skip to main content
The Configuration tab on Evaluations (/evaluations?tab=configuration) sets the judge model and Auto Evaluation schedule used for online LLM evaluation. The page opens with a Manual & Auto info card explaining both paths. (/evaluations/settings and /settings/evaluation redirect here.)

Evaluation engine

Under the Configuration card, choose: Save with Save Changes or Create Config depending on whether a config already exists.

Auto Evaluation

Auto Evaluation runs enabled evaluators against newly ingested LLM traces on a schedule - no manual click or SDK call required.
1

Open Configuration

Go to Monitor → Evaluations → Configuration.
2

Choose the judge model

Select Provider, Model, and API Key (Vault).
3

Enable auto evaluation

Toggle Enable auto evaluation.
4

Set sample rate

Enter Sample rate (%) - the percentage of eligible traces to evaluate (e.g. 10 for 10%). Sampling is deterministic for a given trace.
5

Set Cron schedule

Enter a standard cron expression (e.g. */15 * * * * every 15 minutes).
6

Save

Click Save Changes / Create Config.
Which types actually run is controlled on the Evaluators tab (and via Rule Engine links). Manual evaluation from a trace still uses this same configured judge.

After a restart

Active Auto Evaluation schedules are restored when OpenLIT starts again - no manual re-setup after a redeploy.

Manual evaluation reminder

The Manual Evaluation card points you to Telemetry: open a trace and run evaluation from its Evaluation tab, or use Go to Traces. See LLM-as-a-Judge.
