Breadcrumbs
Sentry uses breadcrumbs to create a trail of events that happened prior to an issue. These events are very similar to traditional logs, but can record more rich structured data.
This page provides an overview of manual breadcrumb recording and customization. Learn more about the information that displays on the Issue Details page and how you can filter breadcrumbs to quickly resolve issues in Using Breadcrumbs.
Learn about SDK usage
Developers who want to modify the breadcrumbs interface can read about this in detail using the developer documentation devoted to the Breadcrumbs Interface.
Manual Breadcrumbs
You can manually add breadcrumbs whenever something interesting happens. For example, you might manually record a breadcrumb if the user authenticates or another state change happens.
The platform or SDK you've selected either does not support this functionality, or it is missing from documentation.

Automatic Breadcrumbs
SDKs will automatically start recording breadcrumbs by enabling integrations. For instance, the browser JavaScript SDK will automatically record all location changes.
