Features

• Session Replay GA (#4017)

To enable Replay use the sessionReplay.sessionSampleRate or sessionReplay.onErrorSampleRate options.

import io.sentry.SentryReplayOptions
import io.sentry.android.core.SentryAndroid

SentryAndroid.init(context) { options ->
 
  options.sessionReplay.sessionSampleRate = 1.0
  options.sessionReplay.onErrorSampleRate = 1.0

  // To change default redaction behavior (defaults to true)
  options.sessionReplay.redactAllImages = true
  options.sessionReplay.redactAllText = true

  // To change quality of the recording (defaults to MEDIUM)
  options.sessionReplay.quality = SentryReplayOptions.SentryReplayQuality.MEDIUM // (LOW|MEDIUM|HIGH)
}

8.0.0-rc.3

Features

• Add sentry-opentelemetry-agentless-spring module (#4000)
  • This module can be added as a dependency when using Sentry with OpenTelemetry and Spring Boot but don't want to use our Agent. It takes care of configuring OpenTelemetry for use with Sentry.
  • You may want to set OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER=none;OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER=none;OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER=none env vars to not have the log flooded with error messages regarding OpenTelemetry features we don't use.
• Add sentry-opentelemetry-agentless module (#3961)
  • This module can be added as a dependency when using Sentry with OpenTelemetry but don't want to use our Agent. It takes care of configuring OpenTelemetry for use with Sentry.
  • To enable the auto configuration of it, please set -Dotel.java.global-autoconfigure.enabled=true on the java command, when starting your application.
  • You may also want to set OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER=none;OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER=none;OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER=none env vars to not have the log flooded with error messages regarding OpenTelemetry features we don't use.
• OpenTelemetryUtil.applyOpenTelemetryOptions now takes an enum instead of a boolean for its mode
• Add openTelemetryMode option (#3994)
  • It defaults to AUTO meaning the SDK will figure out how to best configure itself for use with OpenTelemetry
  • Use of OpenTelemetry can also be disabled completely by setting it to OFF (#3995)
    • In this case even if OpenTelemetry is present, the Sentry SDK will not use it
  • Use AGENT when using sentry-opentelemetry-agent
  • Use AGENTLESS when using sentry-opentelemetry-agentless
  • Use AGENTLESS_SPRING when using sentry-opentelemetry-agentless-spring
• Add scopeBindingMode to SpanOptions (#4004)
  • This setting only affects the SDK when used with OpenTelemetry.
  • Defaults to AUTO meaning the SDK will decide whether the span should be bound to the current scope. It will not bind transactions to scope using AUTO, it will only bind spans where the parent span is on the current scope.
  • ON sets the new span on the current scope.
  • OFF does not set the new span on the scope.

Fixes

• Replace deprecated SimpleInstrumentation with SimplePerformantInstrumentation for graphql 22 (#3974)
• Cache requests for Spring using Springs ContentCachingRequestWrapper instead of our own Wrapper to also cache parameters (#3641)
  • Previously only the body was cached which could lead to problems in the FilterChain as Request parameters were not available
• We now hold a strong reference to the underlying OpenTelemetry span when it is created through Sentry API (#3997)
  • This keeps it from being garbage collected too early
• Close backpressure monitor on SDK shutdown (#3998)
  • Due to the backpressure monitor rescheduling a task to run every 10s, it very likely caused shutdown to wait the full shutdownTimeoutMillis (defaulting to 2s) instead of being able to terminate immediately
• Improve ignored check performance (#3992)
  • Checking if a span origin, a transaction or a checkIn should be ignored is now faster

8.0.0-rc.2

Fixes

• Fix incoming defer sampling decision sentry-trace header (#3942)
  • A sentry-trace header that only contains trace ID and span ID but no sampled flag (-1, -0 suffix) means the receiving system can make its own sampling decision
  • When generating sentry-trace header from PropagationContext we now copy the sampled flag.
  • In TransactionContext.fromPropagationContext when there is no parent sampling decision, keep the decision null so a new sampling decision is made instead of defaulting to false
• Defer sampling decision by setting sampled to null in PropagationContext when using OpenTelemetry in case of an incoming defer sampling sentry-trace header. (#3945)
• Build PropagationContext from SamplingDecision made by SentrySampler instead of parsing headers and potentially ignoring a sampling decision in case a sentry-trace header comes in with deferred sampling decision. (#3947)
• Let OpenTelemetry handle extracting and injecting tracing information (#3953)
  • Our integrations no longer call .continueTrace and also do not inject tracing headers if the integration has been added to ignoredSpanOrigins
• Changes up to 7.18.1 have been merged and are now included as well

8.0.0-rc.1

Features

• Extract OpenTelemetry URL_PATH span attribute into description (#3933)
