Document HTTP Client Errors (enableCaptureFailedRequests)

[mattjohnsonpint]

Core or SDK?

Platform/SDK

Which part? Which one?

All SDKs

Description

In getsentry/team-mobile#38 - all SDKs added support for HTTP Client errors, per the developer docs here: https://develop.sentry.dev/sdk/features/#http-client-errors

However, only Apple has it documented:

• https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/apple/configuration/http-client-errors/
• https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/apple/configuration/options/#capture-failed-requests

All SDKs need to document this feature.

Suggested Solution

If the Apple specific doc page is made generic and converted to a common page, then each SDK team can modify the examples as appropriate for their platform.

@jamescrosswell (contractor) recently completed this feature for .NET (see getsentry/sentry-dotnet#2320) and can take a first stab at this. (Thanks James!)

@mattjohnsonpint We also have for other SDKs
https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/dart/configuration/integrations/http-integration/ https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/android/configuration/integrations/okhttp/#http-client-errors
https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/configuration/integrations/plugin/#httpclient
They are just not unified because they depend on integrations.

Docs on Contributing to Docs - meta but helpful ;-)

[mattjohnsonpint]

Ok. So actually then, we should probably not generify the detail feature docs but rather just add new docs for .NET. @jamescrosswell - you can copy/past/modify the one from Apple to get started.

We do still need to make sure all platforms that expose enableCaptureFailedRequests on their main options class, have that option showing on the basic configuration page. We should also add a link from there to the detail page where appropriate.

The bot is going crazy since it only expects one Product Area label. Issues like this don't seem to happen very often and I don't think having multiple product areas per issue is an area we want to go in. Seems like for now it is assigned to an owner, sorry for the noise everyone
