Add more spans outside http.route about sentry-laravel HOT 5 CLOSED

Thanks both ☺️ I found out I needed to enable the feature with a flag as explained here: https://develop.sentry.dev/feature-flags/

Ah perhaps I should be using the profiling... Feel free to close if this is the solution and I'll try it out soon.

Hey @gla23, we currently do not add spans for each middleware (I also am not sure it's possible currently) to prevent too much span overload since you can have quite a number of middleware, but might be something to explore in the future if it makes sense to add!

The "categories" from your screenshot are the totals of the spans of that type. So the queries of that request took a total of 353ms and can be 1 query but also multiple of course. The http.route is indeed your controller and the http.middleware is the part after the framework is bootstrapped and before your route action is called so there is definitely something fishy in one of the middlewares.

The best way to dig deeper into this is indeed profiling which should show you which code and/or middleware is active for that long and should give very default insights in the code running!

Thanks, that makes sense 😄

Next up I'm struggling to get the profiling to appear. I've updated Sentry to the latest version (23.10.1) but "Profiling" doesn't appear in the sidebar like in the docs. The links aren't there on the Transaction Summary page either. I have verified that my profiles_sample_rate is at 1 (and have sent requests so they should be appearing). I've also checked that extension_loaded('excimer') returns true. Is there something I'm missing here? I'm starting to worry that profiling is only available on the Sentry hosted setup but that fact is left out of the docs...

Profiling is available on self-hosted, though I can't offer you any support with this.
You can try our Discord, channel #self-hosted or drop the team an issue over at https://github.com/getsentry/self-hosted.

As the issue concerning the SDK was hopefully resolved, I'm closing this.
