Prerequisites
- A Sentry account with at least one project configured
- Organization-level access in Sentry (Member role or higher)
- An OpsBrief account (sign up free)
Step-by-Step Setup
Navigate to Integrations
After creating your account, go to your dashboard and navigate to Settings → Integrations. You'll see Sentry in the list of available platforms.
Click Connect Sentry
Click the "Connect" button next to Sentry. This will redirect you to Sentry's OAuth authorization page where you'll grant OpsBrief permission to access your organization.
Security note: We use OAuth 2.0 and only request read-only access to your Sentry data. OpsBrief cannot resolve, ignore, or modify issues. Learn more about our security practices.
Authorize OpsBrief
Review the permissions requested and click "Authorize" to grant OpsBrief access. The permissions we request include:
org:read- Read organization informationproject:read- List and read project detailsevent:read- Read issues and error eventsmember:read- Read team member information
Select Projects to Monitor
After authorization, you'll be redirected back to OpsBrief. Navigate to Channels to see all your Sentry projects. Select which projects you want to monitor.
For engineering teams, we recommend monitoring all production projects and critical backend services.
Configure Event Types
For each selected project, choose which issue types to track:
Production Project
- ✓ New issues (all levels)
- ✓ Regressions
- ✓ Unhandled exceptions
- ✓ Resolved issues
Development Project
- ✓ Error-level issues only
- ✓ Fatal exceptions
- ○ Warnings (optional)
- ○ Debug info (optional)

Troubleshooting
I don't see all my projects
OpsBrief shows projects based on your Sentry permissions. If you're missing projects, check that you have appropriate access in your Sentry organization. Team-scoped access may limit which projects you can see.
Issues aren't syncing
Sentry data syncs periodically. If you've just connected, wait a few minutes and refresh. Make sure the project is selected for monitoring in your OpsBrief Channels page.
Can I filter by error level?
Yes! In your event type configuration, you can choose to only receive notifications for specific levels (Fatal, Error, Warning, Info, Debug).
How do I disconnect Sentry?
Go to Settings → Integrations in your OpsBrief dashboard, find Sentry, and click 'Disconnect'. This will remove all access but preserve your historical data.
Which Sentry plans are supported?
OpsBrief works with all Sentry plans including Developer, Team, Business, and Enterprise. As long as you can access the OAuth authorization, you can connect.
