Resolve Sentry errors from GitLab
Problem to solve
Errors are noisy and plentiful which makes triage processes time-consuming because it is difficult to sort through the cruft to find the critical ones. By providing the ability to resolve an error in the GitLab UI, we give users another tool to clear out errors that have been fixed, allowing them to easily focus on the one's that require fixing.
Intended users
- Delaney (Development Team Lead)
- Sasha (Software Developer)
- Devon (DevOps Engineer)
- Sidney (Systems Administrator)
Further details
This work supports the Error Tracking Vision.
Proposal
Add the option to resolve Sentry errors in GitLab. It should be available in the list view and on the detail page. Resolving an error should automatically close an associated issue.
Design
For the list page, we can change the ignore icon button into a button group, and introduce the resolve button. The button can utilize the existing check-circle icon.
For the error detail page, we can add in a new button for Resolve, which will join the existing New issue and Ignore buttons.
