Manage Sentry releases with versioning, commit association, and source map uploads.
Use when creating releases, linking commits to errors, uploading release artifacts,
monitoring release health, or cleaning up old releases.
Trigger with phrases like "sentry release", "create sentry version",
"sentry source maps", "sentry suspect commits", "release health".
Manage the full Sentry release lifecycle: create versioned releases, associate commits for suspect commit detection, upload source maps for readable stack traces, and monitor release health with crash-free rates and adoption metrics. Every production deploy should create a Sentry release so errors are grouped by version and regressions are caught immediately.
Prerequisites
Sentry CLI installed: npm install -g @sentry/cli (v2.x) or use npx @sentry/cli
Source maps generated by your build (e.g., tsc --sourceMap, Vite build.sourcemap: true)
GitHub/GitLab integration installed in Sentry for automatic commit association (Settings > Integrations)
Instructions
Step 1 — Create a Release and Associate Commits
Choose a release naming convention. Sentry accepts any string, but two patterns dominate production usage:
Semver naming ties releases to your package version:
# Semver: my-app@2.1.0
VERSION="my-app@$(node -p "require('./package.json').version")"
sentry-cli releases new "$VERSION"
Commit SHA naming ties releases to exact deployments:
# SHA: my-app@a1b2c3d (short) or full 40-char SHA
VERSION="my-app@$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)"
sentry-cli releases new "$VERSION"
After creating the release, associate commits. This is what powers suspect commits — Sentry's ability to identify which commit likely caused a new issue by matching error stack frames to recently changed files:
# Auto-detect commits since last release (requires GitHub/GitLab integration)
"$VERSION"
# Or specify a commit range manually
"$VERSION"
"my-org/my-repo@from_sha..to_sha"
When --auto runs, Sentry walks the git log from the previous release's last commit to the current HEAD. It stores each commit's author, changed files, and message. When a new error arrives, Sentry matches the stack trace file paths against recently changed files and suggests the author as the likely owner.
Step 2 — Upload Source Maps and Release Artifacts
Source maps let Sentry translate minified stack traces into original source code. Upload them before deploying — Sentry does not retroactively apply source maps to existing events.
# Upload all .js and .map files from dist/
sentry-cli sourcemaps upload \
--release="$VERSION" \
--url-prefix="~/static/js" \
--validate \
./dist
The --url-prefix must match how your JS files are served. The ~/ prefix is a wildcard that matches any scheme and host:
Managing release artifacts — list, inspect, and clean up uploaded files:
# List all artifacts for a release
sentry-cli releases files "$VERSION" list
# Delete all source maps for a release (free storage)
sentry-cli releases files "$VERSION" delete --all
# Upload a single file manually
sentry-cli releases files "$VERSION" upload ./dist/app.js.map
Build tool plugins (alternative to CLI uploads) — handle release creation, commit association, and source map upload automatically:
Step 3 — Finalize, Deploy, and Monitor Release Health
Finalize marks the release as complete. Until finalized, the release appears as "unreleased" in the UI:
sentry-cli releases finalize "$VERSION"
Finalizing affects three things: (1) issues resolved as "next release" are marked resolved, (2) the release becomes the baseline for future --auto commit detection, and (3) the activity timeline records the release.
Record the deployment to track which environments run which release:
sentry-cli releases deploys "$VERSION" new \
--env production \
--started $(date +%s) \
--finished $(date +%s)
# For staging
sentry-cli releases deploys "$VERSION" new --env staging
Match the SDK release — the release string in your Sentry SDK init must match the CLI version exactly, or events will not associate with the release:
import * asSentryfrom'@sentry/node';
Sentry.init({
dsn: process.env.SENTRY_DSN,
release: process.env.SENTRY_RELEASE, // Must match CLI $VERSION exactlyenvironment: process.env.NODE_ENV,
});
Release health dashboard — after deployment, monitor these metrics at sentry.io/releases/:
Crash-free rate: Percentage of sessions without a fatal error. Target > 99.5%.
Adoption: Percentage of total sessions running this release. Tracks rollout progress.
Sessions: Total session count. A session begins when a user starts the app and ends after inactivity or a crash.
Error count: New errors first seen in this release versus regressions.
Enable session tracking in the SDK for release health data:
Sentry.init({
dsn: process.env.SENTRY_DSN,
release: process.env.SENTRY_RELEASE,
autoSessionTracking: true, // Enabled by default in browser SDK
});
Cleanup old releases to manage storage and reduce noise:
# Delete a release and all its artifacts
sentry-cli releases delete "$VERSION"# List all releases via API
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN" \
"https://sentry.io/api/0/organizations/$SENTRY_ORG/releases/"
Output
Release created with a version identifier tied to semver or git SHA
Commits associated for suspect commit detection and suggested assignees
Source maps uploaded and validated for deobfuscated stack traces
Release finalized with deployment environment and timestamps recorded
SDK release value matching CLI version for event-to-release correlation
Release health dashboard tracking crash-free rate, adoption, and session data
