Integrating Sentry Observability With Your Workflows
Blog post from Kestra
Integrating Sentry.io with Kestra workflows enhances observability by allowing users to monitor and alert on workflow executions through logs, metrics, and traces. Kestra offers two plugins, SentryAlert and SentryExecution, for sending issues to Sentry, helping troubleshoot failures and monitor successes. SentryAlert can be utilized for any reason, including workflow failures, by sending customizable JSON payloads to Sentry's API. SentryExecution is particularly useful when monitoring multiple workflows, as it can be triggered by any flow within a specified namespace that fails or generates warnings. This integration is made easy with Sentry's zero-dollar plan, allowing developers to register and start monitoring without initial costs. Together, Kestra and Sentry provide a comprehensive solution for enterprise-grade workflow automation and end-to-end observability, offering real-time monitoring and alerts that can be tailored to individual use cases.
