I think the Electron SDK is going to require its own page for this so I think this can be merged and that can come in another PR...

This great, thanks for taking the time to collect all of this information. I had a couple of questions and suggestions but I think this is already in a good place :)


## HTTP Headers

By default, the Sentry SDK doesn't send any HTTP response or request headers.

this isn't entirely true, right? IIRC from your PR, it's true for browser but in Node we always send headers? If so, let's maybe only show this for browser JS?

yeah this is currently not true but I was already writing the optimistic version of the docs for after my PR is merged :D

But since we don't filter sending the HTTP headers I'll rewrite this


## Information About Logged-in User

By default, the Sentry SDK doesn't send any information about the logged-in user, such as email address, user ID, or username. Even if enabled, the type of logged-in user information you'll be able to send depends on the integrations you enable in Sentry's SDK. Most integrations won't send any user information. Some will only set the user ID, but there are a few (e.g. <PlatformLink to="/user-feedback/">User Feedback</PlatformLink>) that will set the user ID, username, and email address.

I'm curious myself now, which ones? 😅

That's bad wording 🙈
It basically depends on what the user provides in the object. I'm going to re-write this all 😅

To start sending logged-in user information, set <PlatformLink to="/configuration/options/#sendDefaultPii">`sendDefaultPii: true`</PlatformLink> in your `Sentry.init({})` config.

Hmm maybe I'm missing something but wouldn't I have to use setUser to actually set user data? Other than that, there's IP inferral and stuff but this is explained in the section below

## Request Query String

The full request query string of outgoing and incoming HTTP requests is **always sent to Sentry**. Depending on your application, this could contain PII data.

two things:

l: let's add an example for a query param (and maybe also fragment?), just so that everyone understands what we're referring to

m: AFAIK we apply server-side PII scrubbing to the URL query and fragment fields. This doesn't change the fact that we send the data but maybe it's worth mentioning? I guess we do this on a lot of fields mentioned on this page in general, so instead of mentioning it here specifically, we could write a short section about it and link to the docs.

Does this apply to all requests we collect (everywhere)?

I'd specifically mention if this applies to incoming or outgoing requests because I think there's different behaviour, right?

I think the Electron SDK is going to require its own page for this so I think this can be merged and that can come in another PR...

This great, thanks for taking the time to collect all of this information. I had a couple of questions and suggestions but I think this is already in a good place :)


## HTTP Headers

By default, the Sentry SDK doesn't send any HTTP response or request headers.

this isn't entirely true, right? IIRC from your PR, it's true for browser but in Node we always send headers? If so, let's maybe only show this for browser JS?

yeah this is currently not true but I was already writing the optimistic version of the docs for after my PR is merged :D

But since we don't filter sending the HTTP headers I'll rewrite this


## Information About Logged-in User

By default, the Sentry SDK doesn't send any information about the logged-in user, such as email address, user ID, or username. Even if enabled, the type of logged-in user information you'll be able to send depends on the integrations you enable in Sentry's SDK. Most integrations won't send any user information. Some will only set the user ID, but there are a few (e.g. <PlatformLink to="/user-feedback/">User Feedback</PlatformLink>) that will set the user ID, username, and email address.

I'm curious myself now, which ones? 😅

That's bad wording 🙈
It basically depends on what the user provides in the object. I'm going to re-write this all 😅

To start sending logged-in user information, set <PlatformLink to="/configuration/options/#sendDefaultPii">`sendDefaultPii: true`</PlatformLink> in your `Sentry.init({})` config.

Hmm maybe I'm missing something but wouldn't I have to use setUser to actually set user data? Other than that, there's IP inferral and stuff but this is explained in the section below

## Request Query String

The full request query string of outgoing and incoming HTTP requests is **always sent to Sentry**. Depending on your application, this could contain PII data.

two things:

l: let's add an example for a query param (and maybe also fragment?), just so that everyone understands what we're referring to

m: AFAIK we apply server-side PII scrubbing to the URL query and fragment fields. This doesn't change the fact that we send the data but maybe it's worth mentioning? I guess we do this on a lot of fields mentioned on this page in general, so instead of mentioning it here specifically, we could write a short section about it and link to the docs.

Does this apply to all requests we collect (everywhere)?

I'd specifically mention if this applies to incoming or outgoing requests because I think there's different behaviour, right?

I think the Electron SDK is going to require its own page for this so I think this can be merged and that can come in another PR...

This great, thanks for taking the time to collect all of this information. I had a couple of questions and suggestions but I think this is already in a good place :)


## HTTP Headers

By default, the Sentry SDK doesn't send any HTTP response or request headers.

this isn't entirely true, right? IIRC from your PR, it's true for browser but in Node we always send headers? If so, let's maybe only show this for browser JS?

yeah this is currently not true but I was already writing the optimistic version of the docs for after my PR is merged :D

But since we don't filter sending the HTTP headers I'll rewrite this


## Information About Logged-in User

By default, the Sentry SDK doesn't send any information about the logged-in user, such as email address, user ID, or username. Even if enabled, the type of logged-in user information you'll be able to send depends on the integrations you enable in Sentry's SDK. Most integrations won't send any user information. Some will only set the user ID, but there are a few (e.g. <PlatformLink to="/user-feedback/">User Feedback</PlatformLink>) that will set the user ID, username, and email address.

That's bad wording 🙈
It basically depends on what the user provides in the object. I'm going to re-write this all 😅

Hmm maybe I'm missing something but wouldn't I have to use setUser to actually set user data? Other than that, there's IP inferral and stuff but this is explained in the section below

## Request Query String

The full request query string of outgoing and incoming HTTP requests is **always sent to Sentry**. Depending on your application, this could contain PII data.

two things:

l: let's add an example for a query param (and maybe also fragment?), just so that everyone understands what we're referring to

m: AFAIK we apply server-side PII scrubbing to the URL query and fragment fields. This doesn't change the fact that we send the data but maybe it's worth mentioning? I guess we do this on a lot of fields mentioned on this page in general, so instead of mentioning it here specifically, we could write a short section about it and link to the docs.

Does this apply to all requests we collect (everywhere)?

I'd specifically mention if this applies to incoming or outgoing requests because I think there's different behaviour, right?

Hmm maybe I'm missing something but wouldn't I have to use setUser to actually set user data? Other than that, there's IP inferral and stuff but this is explained in the section below

two things:

l: let's add an example for a query param (and maybe also fragment?), just so that everyone understands what we're referring to

m: AFAIK we apply server-side PII scrubbing to the URL query and fragment fields. This doesn't change the fact that we send the data but maybe it's worth mentioning? I guess we do this on a lot of fields mentioned on this page in general, so instead of mentioning it here specifically, we could write a short section about it and link to the docs.

Does this apply to all requests we collect (everywhere)?

I'd specifically mention if this applies to incoming or outgoing requests because I think there's different behaviour, right?

By default, the Sentry SDK will not send local variables in the error stack trace in client-side JavaScript SDKs.

I think the Electron SDK is going to require its own page for this so I think this can be merged and that can come in another PR...

This great, thanks for taking the time to collect all of this information. I had a couple of questions and suggestions but I think this is already in a good place :)


## HTTP Headers

By default, the Sentry SDK doesn't send any HTTP response or request headers.

this isn't entirely true, right? IIRC from your PR, it's true for browser but in Node we always send headers? If so, let's maybe only show this for browser JS?

yeah this is currently not true but I was already writing the optimistic version of the docs for after my PR is merged :D

But since we don't filter sending the HTTP headers I'll rewrite this


## Information About Logged-in User

By default, the Sentry SDK doesn't send any information about the logged-in user, such as email address, user ID, or username. Even if enabled, the type of logged-in user information you'll be able to send depends on the integrations you enable in Sentry's SDK. Most integrations won't send any user information. Some will only set the user ID, but there are a few (e.g. <PlatformLink to="/user-feedback/">User Feedback</PlatformLink>) that will set the user ID, username, and email address.

even if enabled

if what is enabled -- sendDefaultPii?

Some will only set the user ID

I'm curious myself now, which ones? 😅

That's bad wording 🙈
It basically depends on what the user provides in the object. I'm going to re-write this all 😅

To start sending logged-in user information, set <PlatformLink to="/configuration/options/#sendDefaultPii">`sendDefaultPii: true`</PlatformLink> in your `Sentry.init({})` config.
