## Sentry
NetBox v3.2.3 and later support native integration with [Sentry](https://sentry.io/) for automatic error reporting. To enable this feature, begin by creating a new project in Sentry to represent your NetBox deployment and obtain its corresponding data source name (DSN). This looks like a URL similar to the example below:
### Enabling Error Reporting
NetBox v3.2.3 and later support native integration with [Sentry](https://sentry.io/) for automatic error reporting. To enable this functionality, simply set `SENTRY_ENABLED` to True in `configuration.py`. Errors will be sent to a Sentry ingestor maintained by the NetBox team for analysis.
```python
SENTRY_ENABLED = True
```
### Using a Custom DSN
If you prefer instead to use your own Sentry ingestor, you'll need to first create a new project under your Sentry account to represent your NetBox deployment and obtain its corresponding data source name (DSN). This looks like a URL similar to the example below:

!!! warning "Reserved tag prefixes"
Avoid using any tag names which begin with `netbox.`, as this prefix is reserved by the NetBox application.
### Testing
Once the configuration has been saved, restart the NetBox service.
To test Sentry operation, try generating a 404 (page not found) error by navigating to an invalid URL, such as `https://netbox/404-error-testing`. After receiving a 404 response from the NetBox server, you should see the issue appear shortly in Sentry.
