No context-gathering, no copy-pasting stack traces. Just ask Seer Agent what's wrong and get an answer from your actual production data.

## Features

### Ask any question about your app

Interrogate your application's behavior in plain language.

Not just "what happened with this error," but also the murkier stuff: slow endpoints, silent regressions, why some requests fail while others don't.

### Untangle incidents faster

When something breaks in production, the first thirty minutes are chaos. Pulling up traces, checking deploys, correlating errors across services.

Seer Agent compresses that into a conversation — surfacing relevant errors, tracing the blast radius, and connecting the signals that point to a cause.

### Get to the bottom of hidden problems

Something's not quite right — but there are no issues, no alerts, nothing obvious to investigate.

Describe what you're noticing, and Seer Agent digs through your telemetry to find what you couldn't: issues you didn't know were related, logs that tell a different story, traces that connect the dots.

## FAQ

**How is this different from just asking a general AI chat agent about my error?**

Other agents know what you paste in. Seer Agent knows your application — your full error history, stack traces, spans, logs, breadcrumbs, source code, and recent deploys. When you ask why something is broken, it's not reasoning from a snippet. It's reasoning from everything Sentry has captured about your application.

**What kinds of questions can I ask Seer Agent?**

Ask anything about your application's behavior or data you see in Sentry. This could be questions about specific bugs, general application performance, connections between different issues, what's happening on the metrics page, or literally any other question about what's happening with your app.

**Can Seer Agent investigate across multiple services or repos?**

Yes. Seer Agent uses Sentry's distributed tracing data, so it can follow a request across service boundaries and correlate errors across your entire system.

**Can I use Seer Agent during an active incident, or is it better for post-mortems?**

Both, but it's particularly useful during an active incident. Describe what you're seeing and Seer Agent starts investigating immediately — surfacing relevant errors, checking recent deploys, and tracing the blast radius while you're still in the thick of it.

**Who can see what Seer Agent generates?**

Only you and your team members. You can share a Seer Agent conversation with your team, but your data is never shown to other Sentry customers.

**Is Seer Agent included in my plan, or is it separate?**

Seer Agent is included with your Seer subscription. Seer is available on paid plans (Team, Business, or Enterprise) at $40 per active contributor per month. An active contributor is anyone who commits two or more PRs in a connected repo. Full pricing details are in the [Seer Pricing Docs](https://docs.sentry.io/pricing/#seer-pricing).

## Quick Start

### Python

Install the Sentry Python SDK with pip

```bash
pip install sentry-sdk
```

Configuration should happen as early as possible in your application's lifecycle.

```python
import sentry_sdk

sentry_sdk.init(
  dsn="https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
  # Add data like request headers and IP for users, if applicable;
  # see https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/python/data-management/data-collected/ for more info
  send_default_pii=True,
  # Set traces_sample_rate to 1.0 to capture 100%
  # of transactions for tracing.
  traces_sample_rate=1.0,
  #Enable logs to be sent to Sentry
  enable_logs=True,
  # To collect profiles for all profile sessions,
  # set profile_session_sample_rate to 1.0.
  profile_session_sample_rate=1.0,
  # Profiles will be automatically collected while
  # there is an active span.
  profile_lifecycle="trace",
)
```

### JavaScript

Install the Sentry JavaScript SDK with npm

```bash
npm install @sentry/browser --save
```

Configuration should happen as early as possible in your application's lifecycle.

```javascript
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/browser";

Sentry.init({
  dsn: "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
  // Adds request headers and IP for users, for more info visit:
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/configuration/options/#sendDefaultPii
  sendDefaultPii: true,
  // Set tracesSampleRate to 1.0 to capture 100%
  // of transactions for tracing.
  tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
  // Set tracePropagationTargets to control for which URLs trace propagation should be enabled
  tracePropagationTargets: ["localhost", /^https:\/\/yourserver\.io\/api/],
  // Enable logs to be sent to Sentry
  enableLogs: true,
  // Set profilesSampleRate to 1.0 to profile every transaction.
  // Since profilesSampleRate is relative to tracesSampleRate,
  // the final profiling rate can be computed as tracesSampleRate * profilesSampleRate
  // For example, a tracesSampleRate of 0.5 and profilesSampleRate of 0.5 would
  // result in 25% of transactions being profiled (0.5*0.5=0.25)
  profilesSampleRate: 1.0,
  integrations: [
    Sentry.browserTracingIntegration(),
    Sentry.browserProfilingIntegration(),
  ],
});
```

### React

Run the command for your preferred package manager to add the Sentry SDK to your application:

```bash
npm install @sentry/react --save
```

To import and initialize Sentry, create a file in your project's root directory, for example, `instrument.js`, and add the following code:

```javascript
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/react";

Sentry.init({
  dsn: "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
  // Adds request headers and IP for users, for more info visit:
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/react/configuration/options/#sendDefaultPii
  sendDefaultPii: true,
  // Set tracesSampleRate to 1.0 to capture 100%
  // of transactions for tracing.
  // Learn more at
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/configuration/options/#traces-sample-rate
  tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
  // Set `tracePropagationTargets` to control for which URLs trace propagation should be enabled
  tracePropagationTargets: [/^//, /^https://yourserver.io/api/],
  // Enable logs to be sent to Sentry
  enableLogs: true,
  // Set profilesSampleRate to 1.0 to profile every transaction.
  // Since profilesSampleRate is relative to tracesSampleRate,
  // the final profiling rate can be computed as tracesSampleRate * profilesSampleRate
  // For example, a tracesSampleRate of 0.5 and profilesSampleRate of 0.5 would
  // result in 25% of transactions being profiled (0.5*0.5=0.25)
  profilesSampleRate: 1.0,
  integrations: [
    // If you're using react router, use the integration for your react router version instead.
    // Learn more at
    // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/react/features/react-router/
    Sentry.browserTracingIntegration(),
    Sentry.browserProfilingIntegration(),
  ],
});
```

Initialize Sentry as early as possible in your application. We recommend putting the import of your initialization code as the first import in your app's entry point:

```javascript
// Sentry initialization should be imported first!
import "./instrument";
import App from "./App";
import { createRoot } from "react-dom/client";

const container = document.getElementById("app");
const root = createRoot(container);
root.render(<App />);
```

To make sure Sentry captures all your app's errors, configure error handling based on your React version. 
 For React versions 19 and up:  

```javascript
import { createRoot } from "react-dom/client";
import * as Sentry from '@sentry/react';

const container = document.getElementById("app");
const root = createRoot(container, {
  // Callback called when an error is thrown and not caught by an ErrorBoundary.
  onUncaughtError: Sentry.reactErrorHandler((error, errorInfo) => {
    console.warn('Uncaught error', error, errorInfo.componentStack);
  }),
  // Callback called when React catches an error in an ErrorBoundary.
  onCaughtError: Sentry.reactErrorHandler(),
  // Callback called when React automatically recovers from errors.
  onRecoverableError: Sentry.reactErrorHandler(),
});
root.render();
```

For React versions 18 and below, use the ErrorBoundary component to automatically send errors from specific component trees to Sentry and provide a fallback UI:

```javascript
import React from "react";
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/react";

<Sentry.ErrorBoundary fallback={<p>An error has occurred</p>}>
  <Example />
</Sentry.ErrorBoundary>;
```

### Next.js

To install Sentry using the installation wizard, run thrun the following command and step through the prompts:

```bash
npx @sentry/wizard@latest -i nextjs
```

For manual installation run the following command and use the following configurations:

```bash
npm install @sentry/nextjs --save
```

Extend your app's default Next.js options by adding code with `withSentryConfig` into your `next.config.(js|mjs)` file:

```javascript
const { withSentryConfig } = require("@sentry/nextjs");
const nextConfig = {
  // Your existing Next.js configuration
};
// Make sure adding Sentry options is the last code to run before exporting
module.exports = withSentryConfig(nextConfig, {
  org: "example-org",
  project: "example-project",
  // Only print logs for uploading source maps in CI
  // Set to `true` to suppress logs
  silent: !process.env.CI,
  // Automatically tree-shake Sentry logger statements to reduce bundle size
  disableLogger: true,
});
```

#### Client-Side Configuration

```javascript
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/nextjs";
Sentry.init({
  dsn: "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
  // Adds request headers and IP for users, for more info visit:
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/nextjs/configuration/options/#sendDefaultPii
  sendDefaultPii: true,
  // Set tracesSampleRate to 1.0 to capture 100%
  // of transactions for tracing.
  // We recommend adjusting this value in production
  // Learn more at
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/configuration/options/#traces-sample-rate
  tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
  // Enable logs to be sent to Sentry
  enableLogs: true,
  // Set profilesSampleRate to 1.0 to profile every transaction.
  // Since profilesSampleRate is relative to tracesSampleRate,
  // the final profiling rate can be computed as tracesSampleRate * profilesSampleRate
  // For example, a tracesSampleRate of 0.5 and profilesSampleRate of 0.5 would
  // result in 25% of transactions being profiled (0.5*0.5=0.25)
  profilesSampleRate: 1.0,
});

// This export will instrument router navigations, and is only relevant if you enable tracing.
// `captureRouterTransitionStart` is available from SDK version 9.12.0 onwards
export const onRouterTransitionStart = Sentry.captureRouterTransitionStart;
```

#### Server-Side Configuration

```javascript
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/nextjs";
Sentry.init({
  dsn: "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
  // Adds request headers and IP for users, for more info visit:
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/nextjs/configuration/options/#sendDefaultPii
  sendDefaultPii: true,
  // Set tracesSampleRate to 1.0 to capture 100%
  // of transactions for tracing.
  // We recommend adjusting this value in production
  // Learn more at
  // https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/configuration/options/#traces-sample-rate
  tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
  // Enable logs to be sent to Sentry
  enableLogs: true,
});
```

#### Register Sentry Server-Side SDK Initialization

Create a Next.js Instrumentation file named `instrumentation.(js|ts)` in your project root or inside the `src` folder if you have one. Import your server and edge configurations, making sure that the imports point to your specific files:

```javascript
export async function register() {
  if (process.env.NEXT_RUNTIME === "nodejs") {
    await import("./sentry.server.config");
  }
  if (process.env.NEXT_RUNTIME === "edge") {
    await import("./sentry.edge.config");
  }
}
```

### Go

Grab the Sentry Go SDK:

```bash
go get "github.com/getsentry/sentry-go"
```

Configuration should happen as early as possible in your application's lifecycle.

```text
err := sentry.Init(sentry.ClientOptions{
  Dsn: "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
  // Enable printing of SDK debug messages.
  // Useful when getting started or trying to figure something out.
  Debug: true,
  // Adds request headers and IP for users,
  // visit: https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/go/data-management/data-collected/ for more info
  SendDefaultPII: true,
  EnableTracing: true,
  // Set TracesSampleRate to 1.0 to capture 100%
  // of transactions for tracing.
  TracesSampleRate: 1.0,
})
if err != nil {
  log.Fatalf("sentry.Init: %s", err)
}
// Flush buffered events before the program terminates.
// Set the timeout to the maximum duration the program can afford to wait.
defer sentry.Flush(2 * time.Second)
```

### Ruby

Add the sentry-ruby gem to your Gemfile:

```ruby
gem "sentry-ruby"
```

Configuration should happen as early as possible in your application's lifecycle.

```ruby
require 'sentry-ruby'

Sentry.init do |config|
  config.dsn = 'https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0'

  # get breadcrumbs from logs
  config.breadcrumbs_logger = [:sentry_logger, :http_logger]

  # Add data like request headers and IP for users, if applicable;
  # see https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/ruby/data-management/data-collected/ for more info
  config.send_default_pii = true
  # enable tracing
  # we recommend adjusting this value in production
  config.traces_sample_rate = 1.0
  # Enable logs to be sent to Sentry
  config.enable_logs = true
  # enable profiling
  # this is relative to traces_sample_rate
  config.profiles_sample_rate = 1.0
end
```

### PHP

Install the Sentry SDK using Composer:

```bash
composer require sentry/sentry
```

To use Profiling, you'll also need to install the Excimer extension via PECL:

```bash
pecl install excimer
```

To capture all errors, even the one during the startup of your application, you should initialize the Sentry PHP SDK as soon as possible.

```php
\Sentry\init([
  'dsn' => 'https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0',
  // Add request headers, cookies and IP address,
  // see https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/php/data-management/data-collected/ for more info
  'send_default_pii' => true,
  // Specify a fixed sample rate
  'traces_sample_rate' => 1.0,
  // Enable logs to be sent to Sentry
  'enable_logs' => true,
  // Set a sampling rate for profiling - this is relative to traces_sample_rate
  'profiles_sample_rate' => 1.0,
]);
```

### .NET

Install the NuGet package to add the Sentry dependency:

```shell
dotnet add package Sentry -v 5.16.2
```

To use Profiling, you'll also need to install the Sentry.Profiling package:

```shell
dotnet add package Sentry.Profiling -v 5.16.2
```

To capture all errors, even the one during the startup of your application, you should initialize the Sentry .NET SDK as soon as possible.

```csharp
SentrySdk.Init(options =>
{
    options.Dsn = "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0";
    options.Debug = true;
    // Adds request URL and headers, IP and name for users, etc.
    options.SendDefaultPii = true;
    // A fixed sample rate of 1.0 - 100% of all transactions are getting sent
    options.TracesSampleRate = 1.0f;
    // A sample rate for profiling - this is relative to TracesSampleRate
    options.ProfilesSampleRate = 1.0f;
});
```
