Application Monitoring Overview: How to Track Errors with Sentry

A quick walkthrough of the Sentry application monitoring platform. In just a few steps, Sentry allows developers to identify and fix production errors across every application in the stack. Get started by installing the appropriate SDK for your platform or platforms. All unhandled exceptions will be automatically captured by Sentry, with individual errors rolling up into larger issues. You will be able to quickly learn the impact of specific problems, examine the stack trace, and get added context about the application state, so you can connect issues to the root cause.

Distributed Tracing with Sentry: How to Find the Root Cause of Errors Across Applications

Implementing Sentry on all your services allows you to use distributed tracing to find the root cause of errors. Just because an error happens in a browser or mobile app, doesn’t mean the issue is with the frontend or mobile code. The issue could stem from an error with code in a different project that they interact with in some way. Distributed tracing empowers developers to find the actual cause of hard to fix issues.

Local Variables and Function Arguments for Native Crash Reports

BugSplat now includes local variables and function arguments for our Windows Native, Unity, and Unreal C++ integrations. By including local variables and function arguments, we can provide another level of contextual information about the cause of your crash. This new feature may help reduce or eliminate the need to debug a crash report on your local development machine.
