Add SENTRY_DSN to your environment variables

Learn how to use environment variables with Gatsby ?

In development, create a .env.development file and add your own key obtained on sentry.io

SENTRY_DSN=https://<your-sentry-dsn-key>@sentry.io/<project>

Add dotenv to your gatsby-config.js

require('dotenv').config({
  path: `.env.${process.env.NODE_ENV}`,
})

/!\ You Probably don't want to use sentry during development, so be sure to remove SENTRY_DSN from your development environment variables once you are sure it works correctly.

In production, add the env variable to your netlify site / docker container.
