# Set the Level | Sentry for Ruby

The level - similar to logging levels - is generally added by default based on the integration. You can also override it within an event.

```ruby
Sentry.capture_message("this is not important", level: :info)
```

Available levels are `:fatal`, `:error`, `:warning`, `:log`, `:info`, and `:debug`. The default, if not specified, is `:error`.
