Why am I seeing 403 Forbidden when trying to send events from a Hetzner IP?

Issue

I want to know why sending events (or calling the Sentry API) returns 403 Forbidden from a Hetzner IP.

Applies To

  • All SaaS Customers

  • Hetzner hosting

  • Event Ingestion

Resolution

Sentry runs on Google Cloud Platform. Google blocks some Hetzner IP ranges before requests reach Sentry, which results in a 403 Forbidden.

Request a different IP from Hetzner (or cycle through IPs until you find one that isn’t blocked). Sentry can’t unblock IPs that Google rejects upstream.

If your 403 response body includes event submission rejected with_reason: ProjectId, that’s a different issue - see Resolving the ProjectId 403 error.
