Deprecated function still shown in latest Node documentation

Which part? Which one?

Node.js

Description

Opening this issue as feedback from a trialing customer:

https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/node/enriching-events/transaction-name/

In that transaction name article it mentions using setTransactionName like so: Sentry.getCurrentScope().setTransactionName("UserListView");

But our engineer was getting undefined errors. Then they found the deprecations list and that function is included. https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/gatsby/migration/v7-to-v8/v7-deprecations/#deprecate-scopesettransactionname So we weren't sure if this was just documentation needed an update or what but figured we would pass it along in case others ran into it

Suggested Solution

This code snippet should be updated to use a non-deprecated function from the v8 SDK

Hmm setTransactionName should not be deprecated any longer, were you able to reproduce setTransactionName not working in 8.x? The docs are wrong, we will fix!

I'm gonna go ahead and close this because we fixed the docs, but please reach out if that is not expected.
