Enriching Events

Enrich events with additional context to make debugging simpler.

Attachments
Learn more about how Sentry can store additional files in the same request as event attachments.
Breadcrumbs
Learn more about what Sentry uses to create a trail of events (breadcrumbs) that happened prior to an issue.
Context
Custom contexts allow you to attach arbitrary data (strings, lists, dictionaries) to an event.
Scopes
SDKs will typically 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
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
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
Learn how to configure the SDK to capture the user and gain critical pieces of information that construct a unique identity in Sentry.
