# Enriching Events | Sentry for Java

* #### [Attachments](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/enriching-events/attachments.md)

  Learn more about how Sentry can store additional files in the same request as event attachments.

* #### [Breadcrumbs](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/enriching-events/breadcrumbs.md)

  Learn more about what Sentry uses to create a trail of events (breadcrumbs) that happened prior to an issue.

* #### [Context](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/enriching-events/context.md)

  Custom contexts allow you to attach arbitrary data (strings, lists, dictionaries) to an event.

* #### [Scopes](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/enriching-events/scopes.md)

  The SDK will in most cases automatically manage the scopes for you in the framework integrations. Learn what a scope is and how you can use it to your advantage.

* #### [Tags](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/enriching-events/tags.md)

  Tags power UI features such as filters and tag-distribution maps. Tags also help you quickly access related events and view the tag distribution for a set of events.

* #### [Transaction Name](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/enriching-events/transaction-name.md)

  Learn how to set or override the transaction name to capture the user and gain critical pieces of information that construct a unique identity in Sentry.

* #### [Users](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/enriching-events/identify-user.md)

  Learn how to configure the SDK to capture the user and gain critical pieces of information that construct a unique identity in Sentry.
