Logs are most useful when they’re connected to what you're debugging — issues, traces, and the code itself. Sentry brings logs into the same view as errors and performance, so you can see what happened and why, without switching tools or losing context.
Connected debugging
Structured logs in Sentry make it easy to search by real metadata—not just raw strings.
Attach properties like customer_id or payment_id to your log messages
Filter and search logs with queries like customer_id:"cus_123" or payment_id:"pay_456" to zero in on specific issues
Group logs by fields like payment_id to surface repeat failures tied to the same transaction
Trigger alerts based on structured values—like a spike in errors for a single customer
See the logs behind a failed cron job, dropped webhook, or bad deploy—right from the issue.
View logs alongside stack traces, releases, and traces—like seeing job_type:"refresh_tokens" right next to the exception
Understand what happened before and after an error—like the status:500 response from a third-party API that preceded a crash
Filter logs by fields like job_id, request_id, or environment:"production" to zoom in on the problem instantly
Sentry connects structured logs to traces, so you can spot retry loops, fallback logic, or silent failures that don’t throw exceptions.
View logs inline with spans—like seeing retry=true or response_time:3000 right where the delay occurred
Understand slowness across services by following logs tied to span_id, trace_id, or custom fields
Debug without guessing what happened between spans—or jumping to another tool
From log to root cause
Livestream logs

Log-Based Alerts
Get notified on patterns or anomalies
Log Dashboards
Visualize key trends and fields
Structured logs
Sentry’s structured logging lets you pass variables directly in string templates—we’ll extract both the template and its values so you can filter, group, and debug with real context, not just raw strings.
Log aggregation
A 500 error appears in Sentry. With log aggregation, you can view related logs—like timeouts or bad inputs—alongside the error to quickly find the cause.
Log -> trace -> reply in @getsentry is quite magical, glad logging is finally supported there

I think @getsentry has become my all-in-one observability solution. It even has logs now—LFG!

I love it! This is fantastic! It's super simple and not bloated with unecessary features. It's already helped me solve multiple bugs without needing to SSH in my server.
V.T.
ALREADY LOVING LOGS!! Finally we will be able to fully migrate to Sentry!

FAQs
Sentry Logs is currently in Beta and free for all users.
When debugging, logs, traces, and errors work better together. Logs provide the granular context—like retries, API failures, and internal state—that spans and errors can miss. But in most tools today, logs live in a separate system, forcing you to switch between tools to piece together the full picture.
With logs in Sentry, everything is in one place. You can see logs right alongside your errors and traces—no more context switching, just faster debugging.
Getting started is just as easy as adding a console.logor logger.info. Our SDKs handle the heavy lifting, automatically linking your logs to traces and errors so you get the full context with minimal setup.

And yes, it really is monthly. Ok, maybe the occasional twice a month, but for sure not like one of those daily ones that you just tune out after a while.
