如何捕获前端响应到Django的错误和异常数据以添加更多上下文

Question

I want to receive some parameters with my error capture on django when something wrong on the front-end

I have react frontend running on a django backend. Sentry is been used to capture errors and report.

In settings.py:

SENTRY_DSN = os.environ.get("SENTRY_DSN")
if SENTRY_DSN:
    sentry_sdk.init(
        dsn=SENTRY_DSN,
        integrations=[DjangoIntegration()],
        environment=ENVIRONMENT,
        release=os.environ.get("HEROKU_RELEASE_VERSION")
        or "HEROKU_RELEASE_VERSION not set",
    )
    with configure_scope() as scope:
        scope.user = {"user": "broken lol"}

This is reporting the errors from entire app.

However, I want to add user ids to error Sentry reports. To do that I need to capture the response from frontend and somehow get that into settings.py and replace the "broken lol" string with UserId

To capture user IDs from Django's user objects, set init(..., send_default_pii=True) . We do not have this as default because this can be a footgun for privacy.
