To handle FastAPI errors with Sentry, you can follow these steps:

1. Install the sentry-sdk library by running the following command in your terminal:

1

pip install sentry-sdk

1. Initialize Sentry in your FastAPI application by importing the sentry_sdk library and adding the following code to your FastAPI application setup:

import sentry_sdk
from sentry_sdk.integrations.asgi import SentryAsgiMiddleware

sentry_sdk.init("<your-sentry-dsn>")

app = FastAPI()

app.add_middleware(SentryAsgiMiddleware)

Replace <your-sentry-dsn> with your actual Sentry Data Source Name (DSN).

1. Use Sentry to capture errors in your FastAPI application by adding with sentry_sdk.capture_exception(error): to your route handlers or middleware:

from fastapi import FastAPI
import sentry_sdk

app = FastAPI()

@app.get("/")
async def read_root():
    try:
        # your code that might raise an exception
    except Exception as e:
        with sentry_sdk.capture_exception(e):
            pass

With these steps, any errors that occur in your FastAPI application will be captured and reported to your Sentry dashboard. This can help you identify and fix issues quickly to improve the stability and reliability of your application.
