For SSPM to detect posture risks in your Sentry instance, you must onboard your
Sentry instance to SSPM. Through the onboarding process, SSPM connects to a Sentry
API by using an API token that you generate from a Sentry account. After connecting
to the Sentry API, SSPM scans your Sentry instance for misconfigured settings and
account risks.
The supported Sentry account plan for SSPM scans is the Business Plan.
To access your Sentry instance, SSPM requires the following information, which you
will specify during the onboarding process.
