Automatic Instrumentation

Many integrations for popular frameworks automatically capture transactions. If you already have any of the following frameworks set up for Sentry error reporting, you will start to see traces immediately:

• All WSGI-based web frameworks (Django, Flask, Pyramid, Falcon, Bottle)
• Celery
• AIOHTTP web apps
• Redis Queue (RQ)

Spans are instrumented for the following operations within a transaction:

• Database queries that use SQLAlchemy or the Django ORM
• HTTP requests made with HTTPX, requests, or the stdlib
• Spawned subprocesses
• Redis operations

Spans are only created within an existing transaction. If you're not using any of the supported frameworks, you'll need to create transactions manually.
