8.0.0
The Sentry JS SDK team is proud to announce the release of version 8.0.0
of Sentry's JavaScript SDKs - it's been a
long time coming! Thanks to everyone for your patience and a special shout out to the brave souls testing preview builds
and reporting issues - we appreciate your support!
We recommend reading the migration guide docs to find out how to address any breaking changes in your code for your specific platform or framework.
To automate upgrading to v8 as much as possible, use our migration codemod @sentry/migr8
:
npx @sentry/migr8@latest
All deprecations from the v7 cycle, with the exception of getCurrentHub()
, have been removed and can no longer be used
in v8. If you have an advanced Sentry SDK setup, we additionally recommend reading the
in-depth migration guide in our repo which highlights all changes with additional details and
information.
The rest of this changelog highlights the most important (breaking) changes and links to more detailed information.
With v8, we dropped support for several old runtimes and browsers
Node SDKs: The Sentry JavaScript SDK v8 now supports Node.js 14.8.0 or higher. This applies to @sentry/node
and all of our node-based server-side sdks (@sentry/nextjs
, @sentry/remix
, etc.). Furthermore, version 8 now ships
with full support for ESM-based node apps using Node.js 18.19.0 or higher.
Browser SDKs: The browser SDKs now require ES2018+ compatible browsers. New minimum browser versions:
For more details, please see the version support section in our migration guide.
In v8, we support a lot more node-based packages than before. In order to ensure auto-instrumentation works, the SDK now needs to be imported and initialized before any other import in your code.
We recommend creating a new file (e.g. instrumentation.js
) to import and initialize the SDK. Then, import the file on
top of your entry file or detailed instructions, check our updated SDK setup docs
initializing the SDK in v8.
The API around performance monitoring and tracing has been streamlined, and we've added support for more integrations out of the box.
Integrations are now simple functions instead of classes. Class-based integrations have been removed:
// old (v7)
Sentry.init({
integrations: [new Sentry.BrowserTracing()],
});
// new (v8)
Sentry.init({
integrations: [Sentry.browserTracingIntegration()],
});
The following packages have been removed or replaced and will no longer be published:

Changes since 8.0.0-rc.3
feat(nextjs): Remove transpileClientSDK
(#11978)
As we are dropping support for Internet Explorer 11 and other other older browser versions wih version 8.0.0
, we are
also removing the transpileClientSDK
option from the Next.js SDK. If you need to support these browser versions,
please configure Webpack and Next.js to down-compile the SDK.
feat(serverless): Do not include performance integrations by default (#11998)
To keep Lambda bundle size reasonable, the SDK no longer ships with all performance (database) integrations by
default. Add the Sentry integrations of the databases and other tools you're using manually to your Sentry.init
call
by following
this guide.
Note that this change does not apply if you use the SDK with the Sentry AWS Lambda layer.
feat(feedback): Simplify public css configuration for feedback (#11985)
fix(feedback): Check for empty user (#11993)
fix(replay): Fix type for replayCanvasIntegration
(#11995)
fix(replay): Fix user activity not being updated in start()
(#12001)
Changelog
8.0.0-rc.2
This release includes adds support for ESM when Sentry.init()
is called within a module imported via the --import
Node.js flag:
node --import ./your-file-with-sentry-init.mjs your-app.mjs
Note that the SDK only supports ESM for node versions 18.19.0
and above, and 20.6.0
above.

(#11941)Changelog
8.0.0-rc.1
This release contains no changes and was done for technical purposes. This version is considered stable.
For the sake of completeness this changelog entry includes the changes from the previous release candidate:
We recommend to read the detailed migration guide in the docs.
We now support hapi v21 and added tests for it.
When running Sentry in ESM mode, we will now warn you that this is not supported as of now. We are working on ensuring support with ESM builds.

We now officially support Svelte 5.
Starting with this version, spans for outgoing fetch/xhr requests will be captured even if no pageload/navigation span is ongoing. This means that you will be able to have a more complete trace, especially for web applications that make a lot of HTTP requests on longer lived pages.

8.0.0-beta.4
INP web vital support was now forward-ported to version 8. Recording of INP data is enabled by default.
The default limit of queued events to be sent was increased from 30 to 64 events. You may observe a higher memory
footprint of the SDK. You can override this limit by setting the transportOptions.bufferSize
option in
Sentry.init()
.
A maxCanvasSize
option was added to the replayCanvasIntegration
to disallow capturing of canvases larger than a
certain size. This value defaults to 1280
which will not capture canvases bigger than 1280x1280 pixels.

addOpenTelemetryInstrumentation
(#11667)A utility function addOpenTelemetryInstrumentation
was added that allows for the registration of instrumentations that
conform to the OpenTelemetry JS API without having to specify @opentelemetry/instrumentation
as a dependency.
Going forward, the Sentry trpcMiddleware
will only create spans. Previously it used to always create a transaction.
This change was made to integrate more nicely with the HTTP instrumentation added in earlier versions to avoid creating
unnecessary transactions.
Changelog
8.0.0-beta.2
propagationContext
on spanEnd
to keep trace consistentTo ensure consistency throughout a route's duration, we update the scope's propagation context when the initial page load or navigation span ends. This keeps span-specific attributes like the sampled decision and dynamic sampling context on the scope, even after the transaction has ended.
We won't assume window.dodument
is available in the browser SDKs anymore. This should prevent errors in environments
where window.document
is not available (such as web workers).
