Web Vitals

Learn more about Web Vitals issues and how to diagnose and fix them.

Web Vitals issues are created for the highest opportunity pages in a project when their vitals scores fall into the Meh or Poor threshold for an extended period of time.

The detector for this performance issue runs on a schedule and checks the 7 day average Web Vitals scores for the top 5 highest opportunity pages on your website (the pages that are both high traffic, and have issues worth fixing).

The following additional criteria must hold true:

  • You must have Seer enabled on your Sentry account.
  • You must have a Github code mapping configured for your project.
  • There must be at least 10 sample spans for the given vital (this value is configurable).
  • There must be no issues currently open for the same Web Vitals metrics on the page being evaluated.

You can view the Web Vitals Insights dashboard to get an understanding of what pages will trigger the Web Vitals performance issue:

We highly recommend using Seer's Issue Fix functionality to diagnose and fix the Web Vitals Issues we've opened. Alternatively, there is lots of great documentation online about how to improve specific web vitals metrics, see:
