I've installed the @sentry/react-native package and ran through the wizard which has updated my React Native project.

When I try to compile the app for Android my build fails due to this error:

Any ideas how you're supposed to pass the --org to the cli? I was expecting this to come from sentry.properties file.

[armanm]

I figured out what the problem was. Our RN project is in a monorepo so I had to manually specify the properties file path this way:

.gradle project.ext.sentryCli = [ logLevel: "debug", sentryProperties: "../sentry.properties" ]

This is how the default path is derived:

https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-react-native/blob/f3a142536f2d509da05c2350e30aeda349fa1e23/sentry.gradle#L77-L86

in case anyone gets this in iOS, I had a similar issue. For iOS, I needed to change the build scripts (both upload and the bundle script) from:

export SENTRY_PROPERTIES=../sentry.properties

to:

export SENTRY_PROPERTIES=sentry.properties

Can we ignore this step of sentry.properties , What exactly it does?

@pnutmath This step is required to provide the authentication key and the organization + project to create the release and upload the source maps to. Although you _can_ ignore it if you like, you would have to upload the source maps yourself otherwise the production stack traces will be minified and unreadable.

I am getting the same on android. Any solutions there?

[jennmueng]

@alexstoyanov You will have to correctly set the location of sentry.properties

@alexstoyanov Hi I am also do for android have any solution for there,
@jennmueng sentery.properties is required for android project in react-native also?
