Netlify has introduced Build Plugins, which allows users to automate and customize their build processes. The Sentry Netlify Build Plugin enables developers to automate release management and deliver a reliable customer experience. To use the plugin, developers need to install it on Netlify, create a new internal integration with Sentry, set environment variables in Netlify, and configure the plugin to notify Sentry of new releases and upload source maps. This automates tedious tasks for developers, unlocking features like suspect commits that likely introduced new errors, applying source maps to see original source code within Sentry, and more.
