+    Symbolic tracing API
+
+    Given an ``nn.Module`` or function instance ``root``, this function will return a ``ColoGraphModule``
+    constructed by recording operations seen while tracing through ``root``.
+
+    With ``meta_args`` and ``concrete_args``, we can trace the model that are untraceable subject to control flow.
+    If specified using ``meta_args`` only, the tracing can be done ahead of time.
+
+    Note that both ``meta_args`` and ``concrete_args`` are kwargs, which contains the key of the argument's names
+    and the value of the argument's values.
+
+    Uses:
+        >>> model = ...
+
+        # if this works
+        >>> gm = symbolic_trace(model)
+
+        # else try this
+        >>> gm = symbolic_trace(model, meta_args={'x': torch.rand(1, 3, 224, 224, device='meta')})
+
+        # else try this
+        >>> gm = symbolic_trace(model, concrete_args={'x': torch.rand(1, 3, 224, 224)})
+
+    Args:
+        root (Union[torch.nn.Module, Callable[..., Any]]): Module or function to be traced and converted
+            into a Graph representation.
+        concrete_args (Optional[Dict[str, Any]], optional): Inputs to be partially specialized. Defaults to None.
+        meta_args (Optional[Dict[str, Any]], optional): Inputs to be partially specialized, special for ``ColoTracer``.
+            Defaults to None.
+
+    Returns:
+        ColoGraphModule: A ``ColoGraphModule`` created from the recorded operations from ``root``.
+
+    Warnings:
+        This API is still under development and can incur some bugs. Feel free to report any bugs to the Colossal-AI team.
