Enable suspect commits, unminify JS, and track releases with Vercel and Sentry

If you’re a JavaScript developer there’s a very good chance you’ve heard of or use Vercel. In the small chance you haven’t, Vercel is this awesome platform that makes building and deploying Jamstack frameworks like Next.js incredibly fast and easy.

Asynchronous CSV Exports with Discover

For as long as we can remember, Sentry has had some version of CSV Exports. They’ve been limited only 1000 rows of results, which did the job for the most part. However, the more you used Sentry, the more we found that limit wasn’t good enough. What if I told you there was a way to get all your data in the exports in a single CSV?

Crashes across many mobile apps at the same time is not typically a result of an app-specific code update. I mean, there’s a non zero chance that hundreds of developers published broken apps… but these widespread issues are likely a result of two things.

Sentry Data Wash Now Offering Advanced Scrubbing

Over the past week, we rolled out access to Advanced Data Scrubbing for all users. If you were one of our Early Adopters, you’ve known about this for a couple of months. As the name implies, it’s an addition to our existing server-side data scrubbing features, meant to provide greater control and more tools to help you choose which data to redact from events. One of Sentry’s main selling points as an error monitoring platform is the data it collects and aggregates.
