could you share some use cases where this can help you unblock? I've been using the product a lot without this feature so trying to understand what other uses this can help out with
Totally Bruno.
I develop Chrome extension that augments chat interface with AI suggestions. As anything with AI, it does everything but what we want. There are instances where users will report that messages are not up-to date, or they belong to another chat, or extension is not loading, or [any type of bug] in other means.
If it's an error in the code, I get amazing reporting with rich context where I know exactly what account, what chat, what messages, etc. I can look up and easily reproduce.
But when people report in other forms, I must trust what they say but I have no context. Sentry feedback seemed super easy win. I just registered integration and it worked from the first attempt - how nice! However because it's only a sole message with few browser details, it's not any better than someone texting me and saying "hey, it doesn't work".
Hope that gives an idea.
Perhaps I could clarify why I said what I did. I see Sentry as an error tracking service. Some errors are a typo or reading x on undefined
, others are unmet user expectations. They both stem ƒrom the same place and greatly benefit knowing what the user was doing.
I also noticed that form submit requests contain all the extra information so hopefully it's easy to display it as on the classic errors.
Routing to @getsentry/product-owners-replays for triage ⏲️
Thank you for the context @flexchar ! That's helpful. Curious if you've tried Session Replay already. With it, you can see up to 30 seconds of the user leading up to them filing the feedback. This hopefully will be more helpful than any tags.
That said this issue is open for us to figure out adding tag support, before we GA the product
Actually I did @bruno-garcia try unfortunately with no success. It would just not work, no errors, nothing. I started out with attempt to plug in performance tracing/profiling. I wanted a simple tracking for how long it takes a user to get AI responses (the final ultimate latency). I could not get that to work. I also never seen session replay.
I suppose it's because Chrome extensions run in rather isolated runtimes. Even though they augment website's UI, they are not the website and they are actually blank on their own. Furthermore, I chose Plasmo framework for building extension which may further contribute to limited access to the runtime initialisation.
However both work well in a typical web app. Session replay magically worked upon setup on my VueJS based app.

Right in general these tools are built to run on the final site, and not on Chrome Extensions.

Glad to hear that!
Update on how this works today:
Our SDK does send client level tags for User Feedback (what you have set with Sentry.setTag
); however, you cannot set tags specifically for the User Feedback event itself.
Our Tags list you see on our User Feedback Details page is a defined list of any user tags with lots of specific context values (like OS version, browser name, SDK version, etc), so custom tags won't appear there today. However, you can search feedback submissions attached to a certain custom tag value with our search bar (despite them not appearing in the dropdown list of search conditions).
Worth clarifying my comment about Replay missed the point we're talking about a Chrome extension. We have it on the docs that this isn't something we support: https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/session-replay/troubleshooting/#replay-on-my-browser-extension-doesnt-work

This is what I tried to explain through this but worth being more clear.
Cheers Bruno! It was very clear but it's never too bad to clarify for tinkerers around.
PS. I got an email from Jazmin that tags have been published and they're now showing up on the interface, super nice & extra useful! 🤝
Moving into this UI project as there's nothing to do for SDK right now. Feedback events are already sending scope data.
The behaviour now is that all custom tags show up in the User Feedback Details UI and you can search for them in our dedicated User Feedback view. Closing this as resolved as that serves our users' use-cases.
