Why aren't all my errors forwarding to my webhook?

Updated over a month ago

Issue

I have an internal integration set to forward errors to my webhook. I have noticed that not all of my errors get forwarded.

Applies To

  • Users of the "error.created" webhook in their internal integration

Resolution

The "error.created" webhook does not trigger on all error event types. The webhook only triggers on error events with an event.type: "error". Other types of events that also live in your issue stream will not trigger the webhook.

The most common example would message level events that are of event.type: "default".

An in product example can be found here from our Python Usage docs. Events sent via capture_exception() would trigger the webhook, while events sent via capture_message() would not.
