Issue
I want to configure a rate limit for my application based on the environment. For example, I want to receive 100 errors per hour from staging and apply no limit to production. I am looking for per-environment rate limits or quotas.

Rate Limits
Resolution
Sentry does not offer a Web UI rate limit that differs per environment directly. You can achieve per-environment limits with these approaches, ordered by effectiveness:
Send each environment to its own project or client key (DSN), then set a rate limit on that key under Settings. This applies server-side and caps the total events for that key, regardless of how many app instances you run. See the client key rate limit documentation.
Add a
beforeSendcallback that applies custom logic based on the environment and drops the events you do not want to send. This runs client-side, so it only limits events within the current runtime, not the total across all instances. See the filtering documentation.
