Django Error Tracking for Celery, APIs, Views

Your own Django error tracker, hosted on your infrastructure

Django production errors rarely stay inside one simple view. A failed Celery task, DRF endpoint, middleware hook, template render, management command, webhook handler, or ORM query can affect customers long before someone spots a log line.

Telebugs gives those errors a focused place to land. It runs on your server, accepts events from the official Sentry Python SDK with the Django integration, and keeps the familiar SDK workflow without sending your error data to a hosted error-tracking SaaS.

You keep the parts that matter for debugging: grouped issues, detailed backtraces, breadcrumbs, releases, notifications, notes, and retention controls.

What Telebugs gives Django teams

Telebugs follows a simple product philosophy. It gives Django teams the core error tracking workflow: readable reports, grouping, releases, notifications, notes, retention controls, and ownership of the server.

It is also predictable to budget for. Just $299.99 once.

Just compare the pricing for yourself

That makes it a practical fit for Django apps that can produce errors from many places at once: HTTP requests, Django REST Framework APIs, ORM queries, background tasks, templates, management commands, webhooks, and async workflows.

Smart Django error grouping

Telebugs groups similar Django errors automatically. This cuts down on duplicate noise when one broken view, ORM query, Celery task, webhook handler, or deploy regression affects many users. See the error grouping guide for details, including custom grouping and fingerprinting rules.

Notifications for real user impact

Send Django production errors to email, push, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, or a webhook. Rules help you separate urgent production failures from expected validation noise, transient provider errors, or low-priority background tasks.

Use notification rules to route view exceptions, Celery failures, API errors, webhook errors, and deploy regressions to the right people. Full details live in the notifications and rules guide.

Detailed backtraces and breadcrumbs

Telebugs captures detailed backtraces for Django exceptions so you can see the view, serializer, template, middleware, Celery task, management command, model, or library path involved in the failure. It highlights your app code separately from framework internals and dependency noise.

Breadcrumbs can show the lead-up: HTTP requests, logs, database queries, background tasks, middleware, external calls, and custom app context.

Where Django production errors hide

Django apps often have several execution paths beyond normal web requests. A useful error tracker helps you understand which path failed and whether the impact is user-facing, operational, or isolated to a background workflow.

• HTTP and API errors from URL routes, views, middleware, template rendering, Django REST Framework endpoints, webhooks, and third-party integrations.
• Database and model errors from ORM queries, missing records, migrations, transactions, validation, and unexpected data shapes.
• Celery and background task errors from async jobs, retries, scheduled tasks, email delivery, imports, reports, and provider callbacks.
• Management command errors from maintenance scripts, data backfills, recurring jobs, one-off admin tasks, and command-line workflows.

Telebugs helps connect those events to grouped issues, notification rules, and the release or deploy that introduced a regression.

Django error context worth capturing

The stack trace tells you where Django raised the exception. The surrounding context tells you whether it came from a customer request, a Celery retry, a webhook, a management command, or a scheduled task.

• Release and environment so production, staging, preview deploys, and canaries stay separated.
• URL, view, serializer, task, queue, and command tags so recurring failures are easier to triage.
• User, account, or tenant identifiers when they help support and engineering understand impact.
• Task metadata such as task names, retry counts, queue names, schedule IDs, and worker context.
• Breadcrumbs for database queries, HTTP calls, logs, task enqueues, and custom app events.

Because Telebugs is self-hosted, you can capture useful debugging context while keeping control of privacy, retention, and sensitive-data scrubbing.

Setup that is friendly to Django teams

Getting Telebugs running for Django errors does not require a large observability project. Install Telebugs on your server, create a project, copy the DSN, and initialize the Sentry Python SDK with the Django integration in your app. The installation guide walks through the server side.

Once the server is running, Django errors start flowing through the same SDK workflow many Python teams already know from Sentry.

How to integrate Telebugs with your Django app

Telebugs works with the official Sentry Python SDK and Django integration. The main difference from Sentry is the DSN. Add this to your requirements.txt:

sentry-sdk[django]

Then install it:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Initialize the SDK (e.g. in sentry.py or directly in your settings.py):

import sentry_sdk
from sentry_sdk.integrations.django import DjangoIntegration

sentry_sdk.init(
    dsn="https://your-telebugs-instance.com/api/v1/sentry_errors/1234",
    integrations=[DjangoIntegration()],
    # ... other config
)

Events captured by the official Sentry Python SDK with the Django integration are sent to Telebugs, where they can be grouped, searched, assigned, annotated, and linked to releases.

For the complete set of options, see the Sentry Django documentation. The integration works identically with Telebugs. For Celery and other background workers, initialize the matching Sentry Python integration alongside Django. For general Python guidance, see the Python error tracking page. For the full picture across SDKs and languages, see our Sentry SDK compatible page.

AI-friendly Django debugging with MCP

Telebugs supports MCP, which makes it easier for AI tools that speak the Model Context Protocol to inspect error data without you copying stack traces by hand. For Django teams, that can mean faster investigation of exception backtraces, breadcrumbs, task metadata, release context, affected views, and API failures.

The useful version of AI debugging is quiet and controlled: your source of truth stays in Telebugs, your sensitive data rules still apply, and an assistant can help reason about a production issue from the same structured context your team already captured. See MCP error tracking for the broader workflow.

Frequently asked questions about Telebugs and Django

Can I use Telebugs with my Django version?

Telebugs is compatible with the Django versions supported by the official Sentry Python SDK and Django integration. Check the Sentry Django docs for the exact version matrix used by your application.

Does Telebugs support Celery and background tasks?

Yes. Use the Sentry Python SDK with the Celery integration for Celery workers, and those captured events can be sent to Telebugs with task metadata and breadcrumbs.

Can I customize Django error grouping?

Yes. Telebugs groups similar errors by default, and you can use custom grouping and fingerprinting rules when your Django app needs a different issue boundary.

Can Telebugs track DRF and webhook errors?

Yes. Django REST Framework endpoints, webhook handlers, views, middleware, serializers, and service code can send captured exceptions to Telebugs through the Sentry Python SDK.

Can AI tools inspect Django errors through MCP?

Yes. Telebugs MCP support lets compatible AI tools inspect structured error context from Telebugs, including Django backtraces, breadcrumbs, task metadata, release context, and event details, while keeping your server as the source of truth.

How do I handle sensitive data in Django errors?

Use the Sentry SDK scrubbing options and Telebugs server-side sensitive data scrubbing rules. Because Telebugs is self-hosted, you control where error data is stored and how long it is retained.
