Setting Up Performance Monitoring in .NET

Set up performance monitoring for .NET using Bugsly. Quick installation, configuration, and verification steps included.

The Problem

Is your .NET app getting slower with each release? Performance monitoring shows you exactly which transactions are degrading and why.

Quick Start with Bugsly

Getting performance monitoring running in .NET takes about five minutes. Here's how.

Install the SDK:

dotnet add package Bugsly

Add the initialization code:

using Bugsly;

SentrySdk.Init(options =>
{
    options.Dsn = "YOUR_BUGSLY_DSN";
    options.TracesSampleRate = 1.0;
    options.Debug = true;
});

That's it. Bugsly starts capturing events immediately. No additional configuration is required for basic performance monitoring, though you'll want to customize the setup as your needs grow.

Going Beyond the Basics

The initial setup captures unhandled errors automatically. To get more value from your .NET integration:

  • Add breadcrumbs to trace user actions leading up to errors. This context is invaluable when debugging complex flows.
  • Set up release health to track crash-free session rates across deployments. You'll know instantly if a release introduces regressions.
  • Configure integrations with your existing tools. Bugsly connects with Slack, PagerDuty, Jira, GitHub, and more to fit into your workflow.

Why Bugsly for .NET?

Bugsly's .NET SDK is purpose-built to hook into the framework's internals. It captures framework-specific context, groups errors intelligently using stack trace analysis, and provides a timeline view of events. Your team spends less time reproducing bugs and more time shipping features.

Next Steps

With performance monitoring in place, set up transaction-level alerts for endpoints that exceed your response time targets. Use Bugsly's performance dashboard to track web vitals and identify the slowest transactions. Enable profiling to get function-level performance data for your most critical code paths.
