# Vue | Sentry for Vue

## [Prerequisites](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#prerequisites)

You need:

* A Sentry [account](https://sentry.io/signup/) and [project](https://docs.sentry.io/product/projects.md)
* Your application up and running

## [Step 1: Install](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#step-1-install)

### [Install the Sentry SDK](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#install-the-sentry-sdk)

Run the command for your preferred package manager to add the Sentry SDK to your application:

```bash
npm install @sentry/vue --save
```

## [Step 2: Configure](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#step-2-configure)

Choose the features you want to configure, and this guide will show you how:

Error Monitoring\[ ]Tracing\[ ]Session Replay\[ ]Logs\[ ]User Feedback

Want to learn more about these features?

* [**Issues**](https://docs.sentry.io/product/issues.md) (always enabled)
  <!-- -->
  :
  <!-- -->
  Sentry's core error monitoring product that automatically reports errors, uncaught exceptions, and unhandled rejections. If you have something that looks like an exception, Sentry can capture it.
* [**Tracing**](https://docs.sentry.io/product/tracing.md):
  <!-- -->
  Track software performance while seeing the impact of errors across multiple systems. For example, distributed tracing allows you to follow a request from the frontend to the backend and back.
* [**Session Replay**](https://docs.sentry.io/product/explore/session-replay/web.md):
  <!-- -->
  Get to the root cause of an issue faster by viewing a video-like reproduction of what was happening in the user's browser before, during, and after the problem.
* [**Logs**](https://docs.sentry.io/product/explore/logs.md):
  <!-- -->
  Centralize and analyze your application logs to correlate them with errors and performance issues. Search, filter, and visualize log data to understand what's happening in your applications.
* [**User Feedback**](https://docs.sentry.io/product/user-feedback.md):
  <!-- -->
  Collect feedback directly from users when they encounter errors, allowing them to describe what happened and provide context that helps you understand and resolve issues faster.

To initialize Sentry in your Vue application, add the following code snippet to your `main.js`:

`main.js`

```javascript
import { createApp } from "vue";
import { createRouter } from "vue-router";

import * as Sentry from "@sentry/vue";


const app = createApp({
  // ...
});
const router = createRouter({
  // ...
});


Sentry.init({
  app,
  dsn: "___PUBLIC_DSN___",

  // Adds request headers and IP for users, for more info visit:
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue/configuration/options/#sendDefaultPii
  sendDefaultPii: true,

  integrations: [
    // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ performance
    Sentry.browserTracingIntegration({ router }),
    // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ performance
    // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ session-replay
    Sentry.replayIntegration(),
    // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ session-replay
    // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ user-feedback
    Sentry.feedbackIntegration({
      // Additional SDK configuration goes in here, for example:
      colorScheme: "system",
    }),
    // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ user-feedback
  ],
  // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ logs

  // Enable logs to be sent to Sentry
  enableLogs: true,
  // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ logs

  // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ performance
  // Set tracesSampleRate to 1.0 to capture 100%

  // of transactions for tracing.
  // We recommend adjusting this value in production
  // Learn more at
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/configuration/options/#traces-sample-rate
  tracesSampleRate: 1.0,

  // Set `tracePropagationTargets` to control for which URLs trace propagation should be enabled
  tracePropagationTargets: ["localhost", /^https:\/\/yourserver\.io\/api/],
  // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ performance
  // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ session-replay

  // Capture Replay for 10% of all sessions,
  // plus for 100% of sessions with an error
  // Learn more at
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/session-replay/configuration/#general-integration-configuration
  replaysSessionSampleRate: 0.1,
  replaysOnErrorSampleRate: 1.0,
  // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ session-replay
});

app.use(router);
app.mount("#app");
```

If you're creating more than one Vue 3 app within your application, check out how to initialize the SDK for [multiple apps](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue/features/multiple-apps.md).

### [Configuration for Late-Defined Vue Apps](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#configuration-for-late-defined-vue-apps)

If your Vue application is not defined from the start, you can add error monitoring for Vue-specific errors later on. To manually add the integration for late-defined Vue applications, update your `main.js` file:

`main.js`

```javascript
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/vue";

Sentry.init({
  dsn: "...",
  // Filter out default `Vue` integration
  integrations: (integrations) =>
    integrations.filter((integration) => integration.name !== "Vue"),
});

// Sometimes later
const app = createApp({
  template: "<div>hello</div>",
});

Sentry.addIntegration(Sentry.vueIntegration({ app }));
```

### [Configuration for Pinia](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#configuration-for-pinia)

To capture Pinia state data, use `Sentry.createSentryPiniaPlugin()` and add it to your Pinia store instance:

```javascript
import { createPinia } from "pinia";
import { createSentryPiniaPlugin } from "@sentry/vue";

const pinia = createPinia();

pinia.use(createSentryPiniaPlugin());
```

Learn more about the [Pinia Plugin](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue/features/pinia.md) and its options.

## [Step 3: Add Readable Stack Traces With Source Maps (Optional)](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#step-3-add-readable-stack-traces-with-source-maps-optional)

The stack traces in your Sentry errors probably won't look like your actual code without unminifying them. To fix this, upload your [source maps](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue/sourcemaps.md) to Sentry. The easiest way to do this is by using the Sentry Wizard:

```bash
npx @sentry/wizard@latest -i sourcemaps
```

## [Step 4: Avoid Ad Blockers With Tunneling (Optional)](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#step-4-avoid-ad-blockers-with-tunneling-optional)

You can prevent ad blockers from blocking Sentry events using tunneling. Use the `tunnel` option to add an API endpoint in your application that forwards Sentry events to Sentry servers.

To enable tunneling, update `Sentry.init` with the following option:

```javascript
Sentry.init({
  dsn: "___PUBLIC_DSN___",

  tunnel: "/tunnel",

});
```

This will send all events to the `tunnel` endpoint. However, the events need to be parsed and redirected to Sentry, so you'll need to do additional configuration on the server. You can find a detailed explanation on how to do this on our [Troubleshooting page](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue/troubleshooting.md#using-the-tunnel-option).

## [Step 5: Verify Your Setup](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#step-5-verify-your-setup)

Let's test your setup and confirm that Sentry is working correctly and sending data to your Sentry project.

### [Issues](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#issues)

To verify that Sentry is capturing errors and creating issues in your Sentry project, add the following test button to one of your pages, which will trigger an error that Sentry will capture when you click it:

`App.vue`

```javascript
// ...
<button @click="throwError">Throw error</button>
// ...

export default {
  // ...
  methods: {
    throwError() {
      throw new Error('Sentry Error');
    }
  }
};
```

Open the page in a browser and click the button to trigger a frontend error.

##### Important

Errors triggered from within your browser's developer tools (like the browser console) are sandboxed, so they will not trigger Sentry's error monitoring.

### [Tracing](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#tracing)

To test your tracing configuration, update the previous code snippet to start a performance trace to measure the time it takes for your code to execute:

`App.vue`

```javascript
// ...
<button @click="throwError">Throw error</button>
// ...

export default {
  // ...
  methods: {
    throwError() {
      Sentry.startSpan({ op: "test", name: "Example Frontend Span" }, async () => {
        // Simulate an asynchronous operation
        await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 99));

        throw new Error("Sentry Error");
      });
    }
  }
};
```

Open the page in a browser and click the button to trigger a frontend error and performance trace.

### [Logs NEW](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#logs-)

To verify that Sentry catches your logs, add some log statements to your application:

```javascript
Sentry.logger.info("User example action completed");

Sentry.logger.warn("Slow operation detected", {
  operation: "data_fetch",
  duration: 3500,
});

Sentry.logger.error("Validation failed", {
  field: "email",
  reason: "Invalid email",
});
```

### [View Captured Data in Sentry](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#view-captured-data-in-sentry)

Now, head over to your project on [Sentry.io](https://sentry.io/) to view the collected data (it takes a couple of moments for the data to appear).

  <!-- -->
  page and click on individual feedback to see more details all in one view. For more information, click [here](https://docs.sentry.io/product/user-feedback.md).

## [Next Steps](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue.md#next-steps)

At this point, you should have integrated Sentry into your Vue application and should already be sending data to your Sentry project.

Now's a good time to customize your setup and look into more advanced topics. Our next recommended steps for you are:

* Explore [practical guides](https://docs.sentry.io/guides.md) on what to monitor, log, track, and investigate after setup
* Extend Sentry to your backend using one of our [SDKs](https://docs.sentry.io/.md)
* Continue to [customize your configuration](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue/configuration.md)
* Make use of [Vue-specific features](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue/features.md)
* Learn how to [manually capture errors](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/vue/usage.md)
