 ## Unreleased
 
+### Added 
+
+- `opentelemetry-instrumentation-aiohttp-client`: add support for url exclusions via `OTEL_PYTHON_EXCLUDED_URLS` / `OTEL_PYTHON_AIOHTTP_CLIENT_EXCLUDED_URLS`
+  ([#3850](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python-contrib/pull/3850))

+Exclude lists
+*************
+To exclude certain URLs from tracking, set the environment variable ``OTEL_PYTHON_AIOHTTP_CLIENT_EXCLUDED_URLS``
+(or ``OTEL_PYTHON_EXCLUDED_URLS`` to cover all instrumentations) to a string of comma delimited regexes that match the
+URLs.
+
+For example,
+
+::
+
+    export OTEL_PYTHON_AIOHTTP_CLIENT_EXCLUDED_URLS="client/.*/info,healthcheck"
+
+will exclude requests such as ``https://site/client/123/info`` and ``https://site/xyz/healthcheck``.
