Sentry Events Not Showing Up

Ongoing All SDKs Updated November 13, 2026Based on 4 user reportsHow we research

Quick answer

Events usually go missing because of ad blockers, rate limiting (429), exhausted quota, a wrong DSN, or a beforeSend hook that drops them. Check the network request and Stats page first.

Most likely fix: Inspect the request

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Inspect the request

    1. Open browser DevTools > Network and look for the envelope request to sentry.io
    2. Status 429: read the Retry-After and X-Sentry-Rate-Limits headers
    3. Blocked request: see the tunnel fix below
    Did this fix it?
  2. 2. Check quota and spike protection

    1. Open Settings > Stats and look at dropped events by reason
    2. Raise the quota or set a pay-as-you-go budget
    3. Review spike protection per project
    Did this fix it?
  3. 3. Review SDK config

    1. Verify the DSN and environment
    2. Confirm beforeSend returns the event
    3. Check sampleRate is not 0
    Did this fix it?
