# SvelteKit | Sentry for SvelteKit

## [Prerequisites](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/sveltekit.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
* SvelteKit version `2.0.0`+ (we recommend `2.31.0` or higher for best support)
* Vite version `4.2`+

I'm on an older SvelteKit version than 2.31.0

Version `2.31.0` of SvelteKit introduces [official support for observability and tracing](https://svelte.dev/docs/kit/observability). This means that Sentry can now follow the official best practice for how the SDK should be set up:

* The Sentry SDK will be initialized at the correct, earliest possible time on the server, allowing for all its auto-instrumentation to work correctly. This means, you will now get spans from auto instrumentation (e.g. database queries) automatically.
* The Sentry SDK picks up spans emitted from SvelteKit directly. You'll get more accurate insights into the performance of your handlers, server actions, `load`, and remote functions.

SvelteKit observability is still an experimental feature in SvelteKit 2.x, but we recommend giving it a try. The Sentry wizard, as well as this guide, will use it as the default way of setting up the SDK.

If you've already set up the SDK and don't want to migrate to the new setup, or don't want to upgrade to SvelteKit `2.31.0` or higher, that's fine too. Just follow [this guide](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/sveltekit/manual-setup__v10.7.0) instead. However, note that auto instrumentation (e.g. for database queries) will not work.

Notes on SvelteKit adapter compatibility

The SvelteKit Sentry SDK is designed to work out of the box with several SvelteKit adapters and their underlying server runtimes. Here's an overview of the current support:

* **Fully supported Node.js runtimes**

  * [Adapter-auto](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/adapter-auto) for Vercel; other Node.js-based platforms might work, but we don't guarantee compatibility at this time
  * [Adapter-vercel](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/adapter-vercel) when used with Vercel's Node.js Lambda runtime
  * [Adapter-node](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/adapter-node)

* **Supported non-Node.js runtimes**
  * [Adapter-cloudflare](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/adapter-cloudflare) requires [additional setup](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/cloudflare/frameworks/sveltekit.md)

* **Currently not supported**
  * Non-Node.js server runtimes, such as Vercel's edge runtime, are not yet supported.

* **Other adapters**
  * Other SvelteKit adapters might work, but they're not currently officially supported. We're looking into extending first-class support to more adapters in the future.

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

Run the Sentry wizard to automatically configure Sentry in your Angular application. It will then guide you through the setup process, asking you to enable additional (optional) Sentry features for your application beyond error monitoring.

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

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.

This guide assumes that you enable all features and allow the wizard to create an example page. You can add or remove features at any time, but setting them up now will save you the effort of configuring them manually later.

What does the installation wizard change inside your application?

* Creates or updates `hooks.(client|server).js` to initialize the SDK and instrument [SvelteKit's hooks](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/hooks)

* Creates or updates `vite.config.js` to add source maps upload and auto-instrumentation via Vite plugins

* If you're on SvelteKit `2.31.0` or higher:

  * Creates `instrumentation.server.js` to initialize the server-side SDK
  * Enables server-side instrumentation and tracing in `svelte.config.js`

* Creates `.env.sentry-build-plugin` with an auth token to upload source maps (this file is automatically added to `.gitignore`)

* Adds an example page to your application to help verify your Sentry setup

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

You can prevent ad blockers from blocking Sentry events using tunneling. Use the `tunnel` option inside your `hooks.client.(js|ts)` file's `Sentry.init` to add an API endpoint in your application that forwards Sentry events to Sentry servers.

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/sveltekit/troubleshooting.md#using-the-tunnel-option).

`hooks.client.(js|ts)`

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

  tunnel: "/tunnel",

});
```

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

If you haven't tested your Sentry configuration yet, let's do it now. You can confirm that Sentry is working properly and sending data to your Sentry project by using the example page and route created by the installation wizard:

1. Open the example page `/sentry-example-page` in your browser

2. Click the "Throw Sample Error" button. This triggers two errors:

   * a frontend error
   * an error within the API route

Sentry captures both of these errors for you. Additionally, the button click starts a trace to measure the time it takes for the API request to complete.

##### Tip

Don't forget to explore the example files' code in your project to understand what's happening after your button click.

### [View Captured Data in Sentry](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/sveltekit.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).

##### 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.

Need help locating the captured errors in your Sentry project?

* Open the
  <!-- -->
  [**Issues**](https://sentry.io/orgredirect/organizations/:orgslug/issues/)
  <!-- -->
  page and select an error from the issues list to view the full details and context of this error. For more details, see this
