# Track Errors, Releases And Cron Jobs In Your Software With Sentry

**[API Evangelist](https://daily.dev/sources/apievangelist)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Sentry's API lets teams, and now AI assistants, query what is breaking in their software and act on it. It covers issues and events, releases and deploys, alerting, dashboards, session replays, cron and uptime monitors, and user provisioning. Sentry maps to 7 business capabilities and has 12 indexed multi-step workflows, like creating a cron monitor and verifying check-ins, or cutting a release and recording a deploy. Sentry says it also runs its own remote MCP server so AI assistants can connect directly. The API documentation is hosted at docs.sentry.io, with 43 conversational overlays mapping plain-language questions to specific operations indexed on APIs.io.

## Questions this post answers

### How can an AI assistant check if my scheduled cron job stopped running using Sentry?

Sentry provides a 'Create a Cron Monitor and Verify Check-ins' workflow that watches a scheduled job and confirms it is checking in, answering whether a nightly job stopped running. This is one of 12 indexed multi-step workflows built on Sentry's API, which also covers issues, releases, deploys, alerting, and uptime monitors.

_Developers automating incident response can follow daily.dev for more on Sentry's API and monitoring workflows._

### Does Sentry have an MCP server for AI assistant integration?

Yes, Sentry runs its own remote MCP server, which is how an AI assistant connects to the service and can ask what is going wrong with an application and act on the answer. Sentry's API covers issues and events, releases and deploys, alerting, dashboards, session replays, cron and uptime monitors, and user provisioning.

_Teams wiring AI assistants into their observability stack can track MCP integrations like this via daily.dev._

### How do I tell Sentry about a new release I'm deploying via its API?

Use POST /organizations/{organization_id_or_slug}/releases/ to tell Sentry about a new version being shipped. Related endpoints include GET /organizations/{organization_id_or_slug}/releases/ to list releases and PUT /organizations/{organization_id_or_slug}/releases/{version}/ to mark a release as released with a date, part of a 'Cut a Release and Record a Deploy' workflow.

_Anyone wiring release tracking into their deploy pipeline can find API references like this through daily.dev._
