 This exporter saves log records to Application Insights `traces` table.
 [TraceId](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/blob/main/specification/logs/data-model.md#field-traceid) is mapped to `operation_id` column and [SpanId](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/blob/main/specification/logs/data-model.md#field-spanid) is mapped to `operation_parentId` column.
 
+### Exceptions
+
+This exporter saves exception records to Application Insights `exceptions` table when log records indicate an excetion [specification](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otel/trace/exceptions/).
+
+Exceptions must be log records with `SeverityNumber` of 17 (Error) and the following attributes MUST be filled out:
+
+* exception.message
+* exception.stacktrace
+* exception.type
+
 ### Metrics
 
 This exporter saves metrics to Application Insights `customMetrics` table.
