To integrate Heroku and Sentry with your monitoring system, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Heroku and Sentry and how that can support your monitoring system.
MetricFire manages a Heroku Add-On that forwards your Log-Drain output to a Hosted Graphite backend. All you need to do is provision the Add-On from within your Heroku UI, or from within your Heroku CLI with a similar command:
heroku addons:add hostedgraphite -a <app-name>
You can now navigate to your new account by clicking on the Hosted Graphite add-on link in the Heroku UI, and wait for the metrics to appear. You can use the Heroku dyno/router metrics to build custom dashboards and alerts. See the Hosted Graphite Heroku docs for more details and configuration options.
MetricFire also has automatically generated dashboards specifically designed for Heroku apps. Once you have provisioned the hostedgraphite Add-On with Heroku, you will be able to see your automatically generated dashboards displaying data from your Heroku app(s):
Additionally, you can create a Heroku app webhook in your Hosted Graphite account, and configure in your Heroku account to send annotations around your Heroku events, like when you provision Add-Ons or make a new deployment. Just navigate to Add-Ons => Heroku i your HG account and copy the webhook:
Now you can just copy this webhook and paste it into your Heroku account (More => View Webhooks => Create Webhook):
With a Sentry webhook add-on, you can pinpoint your Sentry events in time to see if they coincide with changes in your metrics. Configure a Sentry webhook in Hosted Graphite, and visualize these events as annotations by following these simple steps:
Browse to your Sentry account, visit ‘Project Settings’ section, click ‘All Integrations’, and check the 'webhooks' box
Navigate to 'Alert Settings, scroll down, and add the Hosted Graphite Sentry webhook location to the field
