Deprecated Settings

Beginning with Sentry 8.0 configuration settings have started migrating from the original sentry.conf.py over into a new format config.yml. We refer to the new format as SENTRY_OPTIONS.

For example, SENTRY_OPTIONS["system.admin-email"] means, put system.admin-email into config.yml.

In Sentry 8.3, we have begun deprecating some settings from the old sentry.conf.py and will soon be only accepting the new values from the new config.yml file.

Historically, SENTRY_CONF or --config was pointed directly to your sentry.conf.py, such as:

$ SENTRY_CONF=/etc/sentry/sentry.conf.py sentry start

Now, SENTRY_CONF should be pointed to the parent directory that contains both the python file and the yaml file. sentry init will generate the right structure needed for the future.:

$ SENTRY_CONF=/etc/sentry sentry run web

The following will be a simple mapping of old (sentry.conf.py) keys to new (config.yml). Old settings should be completely removed.
