Sentry Plugin

NPM

This plugin allows you to integrate Sentry seamlessly with your Payload application.

What is Sentry?

Sentry is a powerful error tracking and performance monitoring tool that helps developers identify, diagnose, and resolve issues in their applications.

This multi-faceted software offers a range of features that will help you manage errors with greater ease and ultimately ensure your application is running smoothly:

Core Features

  • Error Tracking: Instantly captures and logs errors as they occur in your application
  • Performance Monitoring: Tracks application performance to identify slowdowns and bottlenecks
  • Detailed Reports: Provides comprehensive insights into errors, including stack traces and context
  • Alerts and Notifications: Send and customize event-triggered notifications
  • Issue Grouping, Filtering and Search: Automatically groups similar errors, and allows filtering and searching issues by custom criteria
  • Breadcrumbs: Records user actions and events leading up to an error
  • Integrations: Connects with various tools and services for enhanced workflow and issue management

Installation

Install the plugin using any JavaScript package manager like Yarn, NPM, or PNPM:

1
yarn add @payloadcms/plugin-sentry

Basic Usage

In the plugins array of your Payload config, call the plugin and pass in your Sentry DSN as an option.

1
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
2
import { sentry } from '@payloadcms/plugin-sentry'
3
import { Pages, Media } from './collections'

5
const config = buildConfig({
6
collections: [Pages, Media],

plugins: [
8
sentry({
9
dsn: 'https://61edebas776889984d323d777@o4505289711681536.ingest.sentry.io/4505357433352176',

}),
11
],
12
})
13
14
export default config

Options

  • dsn : string | required

    Sentry automatically assigns a DSN when you create a project, the unique DSN informs Sentry where to send events so they are associated with the correct project.

  • enabled: boolean | optional

    Set to false to disable the plugin. Defaults to true.

  • init : ClientOptions | optional

    Sentry allows a variety of options to be passed into the Sentry.init() function, see the full list of options here.

  • requestHandler : RequestHandlerOptions | optional

    Accepts options that let you decide what data should be included in the event sent to Sentry, checkout the options here.

  • captureErrors: number[] | optional

    By default, Sentry.errorHandler will capture only errors with a status code of 500 or higher. To capture additional error codes, pass the values as numbers in an array.

To see all options available, visit the Sentry Docs.
