Sentry app for Compass is now available

[#1]

Hey there, Josh here from the Compass product team and I wanted to quickly share that Compass now has a Sentry integration! Sentry is an application performance monitoring and error tracking tool that helps software teams. With the Sentry app for Compass, you can configure your Sentry alerts to send errors & alerts to Compass and then view them, along with other events across dependencies, on the Compass activity feed. The Sentry app also gives you an "Unresolved Sentry Issues" metric on your components which can be used with a scorecard to help identify components that need attention. You can find Sentry under the Apps menu in Compass and follow these steps to get the app installed and configured today!

Getting Sentry alerts & metrics for your Compass components involves two major steps after the app has been installed & configured on your Compass site:

Step 1: Navigate to a Compass component and paste a link in the Project, Dashboard, or Other link section to the Project in Sentry that corresponds to this component. The Sentry url should look like https://your-org-slug.sentry.io/projects/component/?project=1111111111111111

Step 2: In Sentry, navigate to Alerts and for each Alert applicable to this component, add an action to "send a notification to an integration". You should see an option to choose “Compass” as the integration target after following the instructions to install & configure the Sentry app for Compass. Sending a test notification from this Sentry Alert should now show on your Compass activity feed for the component letting you know it’s been successfully connected.

Note that today you will see these Sentry events displayed in the "Other" row on the Compass activity feed. Our team is hard at work making these display on their own "Sentry" row as shown in the screenshot above and we expect this improvement to rollout to all customers in the next couple of weeks. Try it out and let us know what else you'd like to see from the Sentry app for Compass!

That's awesome! We use Sentry and having integration with Compass gives even more visibility over errors and components. Sharing this with our team now 😊

Great news!

But I would like to clarify the requirements. Can we configure this integration with an on-premise Sentry installation?

I am also interested in connecting self-hosted Sentry to Compass.
