Some of you are already seeing it, and some of you will see it soon: there is now an events view in Sentry.
The events view lets you find specific events, and opens up a lot of interesting possibilities for tracing dimensions. It also includes our new expanded search syntax which covers negation (!value
) as well as new properties, such as stack.filename
.
For example, we’re able to find all sampled events affecting any Sentry staff member:
We were also able to very easily instrument events with a transaction_id tag, and understand errors that have crossed service boundaries:
The features available depend on if you’re on the Team or Business tier. On Team you’re only able to filter to a single project, and on Business you’re able to filter across any project you’re a member of (or simply all of them). If you’re on a legacy plan (a lot of you are) you can opt-in to the new Team or Business plans via the Usage & Billing page under Organization Settings.
We’re still working out some kinks, but interested to hear your feedback, and any interesting use cases you’ve come across.
(note: there’s some other navigation items you’ll see in our screenshots - more on those soon)
