Sentry

The Sentry backend is ingest-only, and sends log events to Sentry's Logs product.

Behaviour and configurations​

Configuration​

The following value is required when creating a Sentry backend:

  • dsn: (string, required) a DSN (Data Source Name) string from your Sentry project. You can find your project's DSN in the Sentry dashboard under: Settings → Projects → [Your Project] → Client Keys (DSN)

Example DSN​

https://abc123@o123456.ingest.sentry.io/123456

Implementation Details​

Implementation is based on the webhook backend.

Log events are transformed into Sentry's envelope format with the following behavior:

  • Log levels are normalized to Sentry's expected levels (debug, info, warn, error, fatal)
  • All log event metadata is flattened and included as Sentry log attributes
  • The source name and ID are included in the log attributes
