Welcome to the official Python SDK for Sentry.
You need a Sentry account and project.
Getting Sentry into your project is straightforward. Just run this command in your terminal:
pip install --upgrade sentry-sdkHere's a quick configuration example to get Sentry up and running:
import sentry_sdk
sentry_sdk.init(
"https://12927b5f211046b575ee51fd8b1ac34f@o1.ingest.sentry.io/1", # Your DSN here
# Set traces_sample_rate to 1.0 to capture 100%
# of traces for performance monitoring.
traces_sample_rate=1.0,
)With this configuration, Sentry will monitor for exceptions and performance issues.
To generate some events that will show up in Sentry, you can log messages or capture errors:
import sentry_sdk
sentry_sdk.init(...) # same as above
sentry_sdk.capture_message("Hello Sentry!") # You'll see this in your Sentry dashboard.
raise ValueError("Oops, something went wrong!") # This will create an error event in Sentry.For more details on advanced usage, integrations, and customization, check out the full documentation on https://docs.sentry.io.
Sentry integrates with a ton of popular Python libraries and frameworks, including FastAPI, Django, Celery, OpenAI and many, many more. Check out the full list of integrations to get the full picture.
If you're using the older 1.x version of the SDK, now's the time to upgrade to 2.x. It includes significant upgrades and new features. Check our migration guide for assistance.
Using the legacy raven-python client? It's now in maintenance mode, and we recommend migrating to the new SDK for an improved experience. Get all the details in our migration guide.
