Spring BootLogging Framework Integrations
For the best experience, we recommend using Sentry's Spring Boot integration with one of the logging framework integrations as they work together seamlessly.
To use Sentry Logback integration in Spring Boot application you must include a dependency to the sentry-logback module, then Sentry's Spring Boot Starter will auto-configure SentryAppender:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.sentry</groupId>
<artifactId>sentry-logback</artifactId>
<version>7.8.0</version>
</dependency>
Minimum logging levels for SentryAppender can be configured in application.properties or application.yml file.
sentry.logging.minimum-event-level=info
sentry.logging.minimum-breadcrumb-level=debug
The default values are:
infoor higher to include a log message as breadcrumb.erroror higher will send an event to Sentry.
When SentryAppender auto-configuration does not suit your needs, it can be turned off by setting:
sentry.logging.enabled=false
If you decide to opt-out from the application.properties based Spring Boot logging configuration, and instead configure logging in the logback-spring.xml file, the SentryAppender can be configured as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/defaults.xml"/>
<include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/console-appender.xml" />
<appender name="SENTRY" class="io.sentry.logback.SentryAppender" />
<root level="info">
<appender-ref ref="CONSOLE" />
<appender-ref ref="SENTRY" />
</root>
</configuration>
You do not need to configure your DSN in the Logback configuration file since Sentry is configured from the Spring Boot integration.
However, if errors that may appear during startup should to be sent to Sentry, the DSN must be provided to both the Logback and Spring Boot configurations.
To use Sentry's Log4j2 integration in Spring Boot application, you must include a dependency to the sentry-log4j2 module:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.sentry</groupId>
<artifactId>sentry-log4j2</artifactId>
<version>7.8.0</version>
</dependency>
For other dependency managers see the central Maven repository.
Then follow the guide on configuring Log4j2 with Spring Boot and configure SentryAppender in the log4j2.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration status="warn" packages="org.apache.logging.log4j.core,io.sentry.log4j2">
<Appenders>
<Console name="Console" target="SYSTEM_OUT">
<PatternLayout pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%t] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n"/>
</Console>
<Sentry name="Sentry" />
</Appenders>
<Loggers>
<Root level="info">
<AppenderRef ref="Sentry"/>
<AppenderRef ref="Console"/>
</Root>
</Loggers>
</Configuration>
You do not need to configure your DSN in the Log4j2 configuration file since Sentry is configured from the Spring Boot integration.
However, if errors that may appear during startup should to be sent to Sentry, the DSN must be provided to both the Log4j2 and Spring Boot configurations.
