Nuxt on Cloudflare
Learn how to instrument your Nuxt app on Cloudflare Workers and Pages and capture your first errors with Sentry.
This guide will show you how to set up the SDK with Nitro's cloudflare_module (or their deprecated cloudflare-pages) deployment preset.
You need:
- A Sentry account and project
- Your application up and running
- Nuxt version
3.7.0or above (3.14.0+ recommended)
Choose the features you want to configure, and this guide will show you how:
Run the command for your preferred package manager to add the Sentry SDK to your application:
npm install @sentry/nuxt --save
npm install @sentry/nuxt --save
yarn add @sentry/nuxt
pnpm add @sentry/nuxt
Add the Sentry Nuxt module to your nuxt.config.ts file:
nuxt.config.tsexport default defineNuxtConfig({
modules: ["@sentry/nuxt/module"],
});
export default defineNuxtConfig({
modules: ["@sentry/nuxt/module"],
});
Add a sentry.client.config.ts file to the root of your project (this is probably the same level as the package.json). In this file, import and initialize Sentry, specifying any SDK options for the client:
sentry.client.config.tsimport * as Sentry from "@sentry/nuxt";
Sentry.init({
// If set up, you can use the Nuxt runtime config here
// dsn: useRuntimeConfig().public.sentry.dsn
// modify depending on your custom runtime config
dsn: "___PUBLIC_DSN___",
// Adds request headers and IP for users, for more info visit:
// https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/nuxt/configuration/options/#sendDefaultPii
sendDefaultPii: true,
// ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ session-replay
// Replay may only be enabled for the client-side
Sentry.replayIntegration(),
// ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ user-feedback
Sentry.feedbackIntegration({
// Additional SDK configuration goes in here, for example:
colorScheme: "system",
}),
// ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ user-feedback
// ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ session-replay
// ___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

tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
// ___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

replaysSessionSampleRate: 0.1,
replaysOnErrorSampleRate: 1.0,
// ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ session-replay
// ___PRODUCT_OPTION_START___ logs
// Enable logs to be sent to Sentry
enableLogs: true,
// ___PRODUCT_OPTION_END___ logs
});
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/nuxt";
Sentry.init({

// dsn: useRuntimeConfig().public.sentry.dsn

dsn: "___PUBLIC_DSN___",

});
We recommend you store your Sentry Data Source Name (DSN) in an environment variable and configure it via the Nuxt runtime config.
This allows you to access the DSN using useRuntimeConfig().public.sentry.dsn.
nuxt.config.tsexport default defineNuxtConfig({
modules: ["@sentry/nuxt/module"],
runtimeConfig: {
public: {
sentry: {
dsn: process.env.NUXT_PUBLIC_SENTRY_DSN, // Use a public environment variable for the DSN
},
},
},
});
export default defineNuxtConfig({
modules: ["@sentry/nuxt/module"],
runtimeConfig: {
public: {
sentry: {
dsn: process.env.NUXT_PUBLIC_SENTRY_DSN, // Use a public environment variable for the DSN
},
},
},
});
Since the SDK needs access to the AsyncLocalStorage API, you need to set the nodejs_compat compatibility flag in your wrangler.(jsonc|toml) configuration file:
wrangler.jsonc{
"compatibility_flags": ["nodejs_compat"],
}
{
"compatibility_flags": ["nodejs_compat"],
}
compatibility_flags = ["nodejs_compat"]
If you don't set the release option manually, the SDK automatically detects it from these sources (in order of priority):
- The
SENTRY_RELEASEenvironment variable - The
CF_VERSION_METADATA.idbinding (if configured)
To enable automatic release detection via Cloudflare's version metadata, add the CF_VERSION_METADATA binding in your wrangler configuration. This provides access to the Cloudflare version metadata.
wrangler.jsonc{
// ...
"version_metadata": {
"binding": "CF_VERSION_METADATA",
},
}
{
// ...
"version_metadata": {
"binding": "CF_VERSION_METADATA",
},
}
[version_metadata]
binding = "CF_VERSION_METADATA"
Important
If you have an existing sentry.server.config.ts file, delete it, as it will conflict with the Cloudflare setup.
To enable Sentry for your Nuxt app on Cloudflare, create a new file in server/plugins and add the following code to it:
server/plugins/sentry-cloudflare-plugin.tsimport { sentryCloudflareNitroPlugin } from '@sentry/nuxt/module/plugins'
export default defineNitroPlugin(sentryCloudflareNitroPlugin({
dsn: '___PUBLIC_DSN___',
tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
}))
import { sentryCloudflareNitroPlugin } from '@sentry/nuxt/module/plugins'
export default defineNitroPlugin(sentryCloudflareNitroPlugin({
dsn: '___PUBLIC_DSN___',
tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
}))
Or, if you need access to nitroApp:
server/plugins/sentry-cloudflare-plugin.tsimport { sentryCloudflareNitroPlugin } from '@sentry/nuxt/module/plugins'
export default defineNitroPlugin(sentryCloudflareNitroPlugin((nitroApp: NitroApp) => {
// You can access `nitroApp` here if needed
return {
dsn: '___PUBLIC_DSN___',
tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
}
}))
import { sentryCloudflareNitroPlugin } from '@sentry/nuxt/module/plugins'
export default defineNitroPlugin(sentryCloudflareNitroPlugin((nitroApp: NitroApp) => {
// You can access `nitroApp` here if needed
return {
dsn: '___PUBLIC_DSN___',
tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
}
}))
To upload source maps for clear error stack traces, add your Sentry auth token, organization, and project slugs in the sentry options inside your configuration file:
sentry options only affect the build time of the SDK.nuxt.config.tsexport default defineNuxtConfig({
modules: ["@sentry/nuxt/module"],
sentry: {
org: "___ORG_SLUG___",
project: "___PROJECT_SLUG___",
// store your auth token in an environment variable
authToken: process.env.SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN,
},
});
export default defineNuxtConfig({
modules: ["@sentry/nuxt/module"],
sentry: {
org: "___ORG_SLUG___",
project: "___PROJECT_SLUG___",
// store your auth token in an environment variable
authToken: process.env.SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN,
},
});
To keep your auth token secure, always store it in an environment variable instead of directly in your files:
.envSENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN=___ORG_AUTH_TOKEN___
SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN=___ORG_AUTH_TOKEN___
While Nuxt generates source maps on the server side by default, you need to explicitly enable client-side source maps in your Nuxt configuration.
The hidden option enables source map generation while preventing source map reference comments that would normally appear at the end of each generated file in the build output.
nuxt.config.tsexport default defineNuxtConfig({
sourcemap: { client: "hidden" },
});
export default defineNuxtConfig({
sourcemap: { client: "hidden" },
});
Let's test your setup and confirm that Sentry is working correctly and sending data to your Sentry project.
To verify that Sentry captures errors and creates issues in your Sentry project, create a test page with a button.
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.
pages/example-error.vue<script setup>
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/nuxt";
function triggerClientError() {
throw new Error("Nuxt Button Error");
}
</script>
<template>
<button id="errorBtn" @click="triggerClientError">
Throw Client Error
</button>
</template>
<script setup>
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/nuxt";
function triggerClientError() {
throw new Error("Nuxt Button Error");
}
</script>
<template>
<button id="errorBtn" @click="triggerClientError">
Throw Client Error
</button>
</template>
To test tracing, create a test API route server/api/sentry-example.get.ts:
server/api/sentry-example.get.tsexport default defineEventHandler((event) => {
throw new Error("Sentry Example API Route Error");
});
export default defineEventHandler((event) => {
throw new Error("Sentry Example API Route Error");
});
Then update the test page by including a new button that executes a function to fetch your API route:
pages/example-error.vue<script setup>
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/nuxt";
function triggerClientError() {
throw new Error("Nuxt Button Error");
}
function getSentryData() {
Sentry.startSpan(
{
name: "Example Frontend Span",
op: "test",
},
async () => {
await $fetch("/api/sentry-example");
},
);
}
</script>
<template>
<button id="errorBtn" @click="triggerClientError">
Throw Client Error
</button>
<button type="button" @click="getSentryData">Throw Server Error</button>
</template>
<script setup>
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/nuxt";
function triggerClientError() {
throw new Error("Nuxt Button Error");
}
function getSentryData() {
Sentry.startSpan(
{
name: "Example Frontend Span",
op: "test",
},
async () => {
await $fetch("/api/sentry-example");
},
);
}
</script>
<template>
<button id="errorBtn" @click="triggerClientError">
Throw Client Error
</button>
<button type="button" @click="getSentryData">Throw Server Error</button>
</template>
To verify that Sentry catches your logs, add some log statements to your application:
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",
});
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",
});
Once you have your test code in place, open the page in a browser and click the button to trigger an error.
Once you have your test code in place, you need to build your project since Sentry's server-side monitoring doesn't work in development mode.
After running your project, open your test page in a browser and click the buttons.
Now, head over to your project on Sentry.io to view the collected data (it takes a couple of moments for the data to appear).
At this point, you should have integrated Sentry into your Nuxt 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 on what to monitor, log, track, and investigate after setup
- Learn how to manually capture errors
- Continue to customize your configuration
- Get familiar with Sentry's product features like tracing, insights, and alerts
- Learn how to track your Vue components or your Pinia store
