Description

Migrated from #27 by @pudgereyem

Problem

This is how I do things now:

  • I call identify(userId, traits) from the back end.
  • I then only call identify(userId) from the front end

..and because there is no server side integration, the first identify call with traits doesn't work. Leaving me without traits in Sentry.

Solution

Add Server-side integration


Cheers,
Victor

Research direction

Start by reading the existing Sentry integration and the repository's conventions for server-side integrations. Trace how identify(userId, traits) is handled today, then determine the required server-side entry point and verify that traits reach Sentry when the client later calls identify(userId).
