Sentry limits

Event attachment request, uncompressed payload, retention, and quota behavior. Values below are scoped rather than flattened into one misleading platform-wide number.

Quick answer:  Sentry has multiple independent constraints. Match the exact plan, model, runtime, invocation mode, or server configuration shown in each row.

How to apply Sentry limits safely

The monitored baseline covers attachment request size, attachment retention. Treat these as separate constraints rather than one platform-wide capacity number: a workload can fit one row and still fail another because the plan, model, endpoint, runtime, region, invocation mode, or account scope differs.

  1. Match the production workload to the exact scope printed beside each value and confirm it in the active Sentry console, configuration, or response headers.
  2. Measure the serialized request, token volume, duration, concurrency, storage, or connection demand at realistic percentiles, then preserve headroom for bursts and retries.
  3. Check every adjacent layer—client, SDK, gateway, proxy, queue, database, and downstream service—for a smaller effective limit before changing architecture.

Specific limit pages

These pages exist because the constraint has a distinct implementation or troubleshooting intent. Closely related keyword variations stay consolidated.
