     | 
||
| ## Quick Start Examples | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ### JavaScript Example | ||
| 
     | 
||
| First, enable metrics in your Sentry initialization: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ```javascript | ||
| import * as Sentry from "@sentry/node"; // or your specific framework | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Sentry.init({ | ||
| dsn: '<your-dsn>', | ||
| _experiments: { | ||
| enableMetrics: true | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
| ``` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Then use the metrics API to send counters, gauges, and distributions: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ```javascript | ||
| // Counter — increment a metric (defaults to +1) | ||
| Sentry.metrics.count('checkout.failed', 1, { | ||
| attributes: { | ||
| route: '/checkout', | ||
| tenant: 'acme', | ||
| provider: 'stripe', | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
| 
     | 
||
| // Gauge — set a current value | ||
| Sentry.metrics.gauge('queue.depth', 42, { | ||
| unit: 'items', | ||
| attributes: { | ||
| queue: 'emails', | ||
| region: 'us-east-1', | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
| 
     | 
||
| // Distribution — record numeric values to compute p95, avg, sum, etc. | ||
| Sentry.metrics.distribution('cart.amount_usd', 187.5, { | ||
| unit: 'usd', | ||
| attributes: { | ||
| currency: 'USD', | ||
| tenant: 'acme', | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
| ``` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Each metric event includes: | ||
| - **name**: The metric identifier | ||
| - **kind**: counter, gauge, or distribution | ||
| - **value**: The numeric value | ||
| - **attributes**: Custom key-value pairs for grouping and filtering | ||
| - **trace_id, span_id**: Automatically attached to link with traces | ||
| - **unit** (optional): Unit of measurement | ||
| - **byte_size** (optional): Size information | ||
|

| 
     | 
||
| ### Python Example | ||
| 
     | 
||
| First, enable metrics in your Sentry initialization: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ```python | ||
| import sentry_sdk | ||
| from sentry_sdk import metrics | ||
| 
     | 
||
| sentry_sdk.init( | ||
| dsn="___PUBLIC_DSN___", | ||
| _experiments={ | ||
| "enable_metrics": True, | ||
| }, | ||
| ) | ||
| ``` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Then use the metrics API to send counters, gauges, and distributions: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ```python | ||
| # Counter — increment a metric (defaults to +1) | ||
| metrics.count( | ||
| "checkout.failed", | ||
| 1, | ||
| attributes={"route": "/checkout", "tenant": "acme"} | ||
| ) | ||
| 
     | 
||
| # Gauge — set a current value | ||
| metrics.gauge( | ||
| "queue.depth", | ||
| 42, | ||
| attributes={"queue": "emails"} | ||
| ) | ||
| 
     | 
||
| # Distribution — record numeric values to compute p95, avg, sum, etc. | ||
| metrics.distribution( | ||
| "cart.amount_usd", | ||
| 187.5, | ||
| attributes={"currency": "USD", "tenant": "acme"} | ||
| ) | ||
| ``` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Each metric event includes: | ||
| - **name**: The metric identifier | ||
| - **kind**: counter, gauge, or distribution | ||
| - **value**: The numeric value | ||
| - **attributes**: Custom key-value pairs for grouping and filtering | ||
| - **trace_id, span_id**: Automatically attached to link with traces | ||
| - **unit** (optional): Unit of measurement | ||
|

| 
     | 
||
| ## Best Practices | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ### Naming Conventions | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Use descriptive, dot-separated names that indicate the metric's purpose: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| - **Good**: `checkout.failed`, `email.sent`, `queue.depth` | ||
| - **Avoid**: `metric1`, `counter`, `x` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ### Attributes | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Add attributes for any dimension you want to group or filter by: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ```javascript | ||
| Sentry.metrics.count('api.request', 1, { | ||
| attributes: { | ||
| endpoint: '/users', | ||
| method: 'GET', | ||
| status: '200', | ||
| region: 'us-west', | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
| ``` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| This allows you to query metrics like: | ||
| - `sum(api.request)` grouped by `endpoint` | ||
| - `sum(api.request)` where `status:500` | ||
| - `sum(api.request)` grouped by `region` where `method:POST` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ### Units | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Always specify units for clarity: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| - Time: `ms`, `seconds` | ||
| - Size: `bytes`, `kb`, `mb` | ||
| - Currency: `usd`, `eur` | ||
| - Count: `items`, `requests`, `users` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ### When to Instrument | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Add metrics at key decision points in your code: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| - **Before/after critical operations**: Track success and failure rates | ||
| - **At service boundaries**: Monitor external API calls, database queries | ||
| - **Business logic**: Capture important business events | ||
| - **Resource usage**: Track queue depths, connection pools, cache sizes | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ## Upcoming SDKs | ||
| 
     | 
||
| We're actively working on adding Metrics functionality to additional SDKs. If you don't see your platform listed above, please reach out to us on [GitHub](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/discussions/102275) or contact us at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]). | ||

Bug: New documentation links are silently redirected to old span-metrics content due to existing
redirects.jsrules.Severity: HIGH | Confidence: 0.90
🔍 Detailed Analysis
New documentation links added in
docs/product/explore/metrics/getting-started/index.mdx(lines 19-218), such as/platforms/javascript/metrics/and/platforms/python/guides/django/metrics/, will be intercepted by existing redirect rules inredirects.js. These rules, like{ source: '/platforms/javascript/metrics/:path*', destination: '/platforms/javascript/tracing/span-metrics/:path*', }, will silently redirect users to older span-metrics documentation instead of the intended new Metrics product documentation. This occurs when users click on these newly introduced links.💡 Suggested Fix
Remove or update the conflicting platform-specific metrics redirects in
redirects.js, or confirm that the new documentation paths do not collide with existing redirect patterns.🤖 Prompt for AI Agent
