Implementing distributed tracing with Sentry
Hi, we are currently using Sentry to track errors across our services, and it’s working well. We’re pleased to see that there’s a built-in integration for Convex too. To enhance our error observability, we’d like to implement Distributed Tracing across our services to track execution flows between them.
Is it possible to implement distributed tracing with Convex? This would involve passing a
trace_id and initializing a new transaction with that ID. Since the Convex ↔ Sentry integration doesn’t expose the Sentry SDK, I’m not sure how to proceed.
I’d love to learn if this is feasible and how we could implement it.Distributed Tracing
With distributed tracing, you can track software performance and measure throughput & latency, while seeing the impact of errors across multiple systems.
