Monitoring

Error reporting with Sentry

We use Sentry to notify us of exceptions that happen in all environments.

We configure Sentry using govuk-saas-config. It reads a list of apps from the docs and makes sure that all configuration is set up correctly.

Use the govuk_app_config gem to configure your application to talk to Sentry.
