7.0.0-alpha.0

Upgrading from 6.x to 7.0

Version 7 of the Sentry React Native SDK primarily introduces API cleanup and version support changes based on the Sentry Javascript SDK version 9. This update contains behavioral changes that will not be caught by type checkers, linters, or tests, so we recommend carefully reading through the entire migration guide instead of relying on automatic tooling.

Version 7 of the SDK is compatible with Sentry self-hosted versions 24.4.2 or higher (unchanged from v6). Lower versions may continue to work, but may not support all features.

Fixes

• Expo Updates Context is passed to native after native init to be available for crashes (#4808)
• Expo Updates Context values should all be lowercase (#4809)
• Avoid duplicate network requests (fetch, xhr) by default (#4816)
  • traceFetch is disabled by default on mobile as RN uses a polyfill which will be traced by traceXHR

Major Changes

• Set {{auto}} if user.ip_address is undefined and sendDefaultPii: true (#4466)
• Exceptions from captureConsoleIntegration are now marked as handled: true by default
• shutdownTimeout moved from core to @sentry/react-native
• hasTracingEnabled was renamed to hasSpansEnabled
• You can no longer drop spans or return null on beforeSendSpan hook

Removed types

• TransactionNamingScheme
• Request
• Scope (prefer using the Scope class)

Other removed items.

• autoSessionTracking from options.
  To enable session tracking, ensure that enableAutoSessionTracking is enabled.
• enableTracing. Instead, set tracesSampleRate to a value greater than zero to enable tracing, 0 to keep tracing integrations active without sampling, or undefined to disable the performance integration.
• getCurrentHub(), Hub, and getCurrentHubShim()
• spanId from propagation context
• metrics API
• transactionContext from samplingContext
• @sentry/utils package, the exports were moved to @sentry/core
• Standalone Client interface & deprecate BaseClient

Other Changes

• Fork scope if custom scope is passed to startSpanManual or startSpan
• On React Native Web, browserSessionIntegration is added when enableAutoSessionTracking is set to True (#4732)
  Change Cold/Warm App Start span description to Cold/Warm Start (#4636)
