Issues with Ruby elastic-apm gem when used with Grape

Elastic Observability APM
1

Im getting an error message NameError: uninitialized constant ElasticAPM::Grape

it looks like there is a check for if constants exist, so the below should not have reported nil according to line 46 on this file https://github.com/elastic/apm-agent-ruby/blob/c96d6fc99e9392d398c18c070b5f8d8b818e82a4/lib/elastic_apm.rb

config.ru:

## ...
require 'elastic-apm'
p defined?(::Grape) # => "constant"
p defined?(::Sinatra) # => "constant"
p defined?(::ElasticAPM) # => "constant"
p defined?(::ElasticAPM::Sinatra) # => nil
p defined?(::ElasticAPM::Grape) # => nil

## CORS
use Rack::Cors do
  allow do
    ## ...
  end
end

## map each app to a root url
app_roots = Rack::URLMap.new(
  '/' => AppCore::API,
  '/app_two' => AppTwo::API,
  '/app_three' => AppThree::API
)

## ...

if ENV['RACK_ENV'] != 'production'
  config = YAML.safe_load(File.read('./config/elastic_apm.yml'))
  ElasticAPM::Grape.start(AppCore::API, config)
  ElasticAPM::Grape.start(AppTwo::API, config)
  ElasticAPM::Grape.start(AppThree::API, config)
end

run Rack::Cascade.new [app_roots]

I'm sorry you're having trouble using the APM ruby agent with Grape. As you've noted in the source code, if ::Grape is defined, the agent will load the ElasticAPM::Grape module. So it's not clear from the config.ru why that's not happening.
Is there something special you're doing to require the grape gem? Can you check if the ::Grape is defined before you require the elastic-apm gem? In your Gemfile, do you have require: false for the grape gem, by any chance?
