# MAUI | Sentry for MAUI

Sentry has an integration for the [.NET Multi-platform App UI (MAUI)](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/apps/maui) through the [Sentry.Maui NuGet package](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Sentry.Maui).

## [Overview of the features](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui.md#overview-of-the-features)

* Easy MAUI integration by calling `UseSentry` on your `MauiAppBuilder`
* All the features of our main [.NET SDK](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet.md), for your managed code
* Native crash reporting for Android, leveraging our [Android SDK](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/android.md)
* Native crash reporting for iOS and Mac Catalyst, leveraging our [Cocoa SDK for iOS](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/apple/guides/ios.md)
* Managed crash reporting (unhandled exceptions), on all MAUI platforms (iOS, Android, Windows, Mac Catalyst, and Tizen)
* Line numbers for your .NET stack traces when PDBs are uploaded to Sentry
* Automatic breadcrumbs for MAUI app lifecycle and UI events
* Detailed device and runtime information passed on every event
* Automatic session tracking enabled, to support [release health](https://docs.sentry.io/product/releases.md)

## [Features](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui.md#features)

In addition to capturing errors, you can monitor interactions between multiple services or applications by [enabling tracing](https://docs.sentry.io/concepts/key-terms/tracing.md).

Select which Sentry features you'd like to install in addition to Error Monitoring to get the corresponding installation and configuration instructions below.

## [Install](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui.md#install)

Error Monitoring\[ ]Tracing

Add the Sentry dependency to your .NET MAUI application:

```shell
dotnet add package Sentry.Maui -v 6.3.1
```

This package extends [Sentry.Extensions.Logging](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/extensions-logging.md). This means that besides the MAUI related features, through this package you'll also get access to all the framework's logging integration and also the features available in the main [Sentry](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet.md) SDK.

## [Configure](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui.md#configure)

In your `MauiProgram.cs` file, call `UseSentry` on your `MauiAppBuilder`, and include any options you would like to set. The `Dsn` is the only required parameter.

```csharp
public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
{
    var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
    builder
        .UseMauiApp<App>()

        // Add this section anywhere on the builder:
        .UseSentry(options =>
        {
            // The DSN is the only required setting.
            options.Dsn = "___PUBLIC_DSN___";

            // Use debug mode if you want to see what the SDK is doing.
            // Debug messages are written to stdout with Console.Writeline,
            // and are viewable in your IDE's debug console or with 'adb logcat', etc.
            // This option is not recommended when deploying your application.
            options.Debug = true;

            // Adds request URL and headers, IP and name for users, etc.
            options.SendDefaultPii = true;

            // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ performance
            // Set TracesSampleRate to 1.0 to capture 100% of transactions for tracing.
            // We recommend adjusting this value in production.
            options.TracesSampleRate = 1.0;
            // ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ performance

            // If your app doesn't have sensitive data, you can get screenshots on error events automatically
            // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui/configuration/options/#AttachScreenshot
            options.AttachScreenshot = true;

            // Other Sentry options can be set here.
        })

        // ... the remainder of your MAUI app setup

    return builder.Build();
}
```

### [Options](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui.md#options)

As previously mentioned, this package is a wrapper around [Sentry.Extensions.Logging](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/extensions-logging.md) and [Sentry](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet.md). Please refer to the documentation of these packages to get the options that are defined at those levels.

When targeting Android or Apple platforms, the embedded native SDKs can be configured via `options.Native`. See the platform-specific native options reference:

* [Android Native Options](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/android/configuration/native-options.md)
* [Apple Native Options](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/apple/configuration/native-options.md)

Below, the options that are specific to `Sentry.Maui` will be described.

#### [IncludeTextInBreadcrumbs](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui.md#includetextinbreadcrumbs)

This option controls whether elements that implement the `IText` interface (such as `Button`, `Label`, `Entry`, and others) will have their text included on breadcrumbs. This option is disabled by default.

Use caution when enabling, as such values may contain personally identifiable information (PII).

#### [IncludeTitleInBreadcrumbs](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui.md#includetitleinbreadcrumbs)

This option controls whether elements that implement the `ITitledElement` interface (such as `Window`, `Page`, and others) will have their titles included on breadcrumbs. This option is disabled by default.

Use caution when enabling, as such values may contain personally identifiable information (PII).

#### [IncludeBackgroundingStateInBreadcrumbs](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui.md#includebackgroundingstateinbreadcrumbs)

Controls whether the breadcrumb sent for the `Window.Backgrounding` event will include state data from `BackgroundingEventArgs.State`. This option is disabled by default.

Use caution when enabling, as such values may contain personally identifiable information (PII).

## [Verify](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dotnet/guides/maui.md#verify)

This snippet includes an intentional error, so you can test that everything is working as soon as you set it up.

```csharp
try
{
    throw null;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    SentrySdk.CaptureException(ex);
}
```
