It works in some browsers, but not in others. (Especially safari)

NotAllowedError should not be sent to the sentry server.

Actual Result

Hey, thanks for writing in! I made a quick reproduction of trying to ignore NotAllowedErrors and could not reproduce your result: https://codesandbox.io/s/notallowederror-test-mnmwku?file=/src/index.js

Example from Safari

Could you provide a link to your Sentry error or give some kind of reproduction so we can investigate further?

Windows Chrome Output:

Windows Chrome Output:

iOS Safari Output:

message: undefined

if you uncomment the ignoreErrors option, you'll see the errors get ignored (Sentry logger in the console). This works on Chrome, Safari, Firefox.

message is undefined on purpose here since we are capturing an error using Sentry.captureException, not a message with Sentry.captureMessage.

See the inbound filters code that uses ignoreErrors: https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-javascript/blob/ef30920004f4b843db34c3c9705e3d9c9cb06218/packages/core/src/integrations/inboundfilters.ts#L133-L147

If you log out event.exception in the beforeSend option, you can see that it is defined:

{"values":[{"type":"NotAllowedError","value":"The request is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context.","mechanism":{"type":"generic","handled":true}}]}

This issue has gone three weeks without activity. In another week, I will close it.

But! If you comment or otherwise update it, I will reset the clock, and if you label it Status: Backlog or Status: In Progress, I will leave it alone ... forever!

/AbortError/ does not ignore, how can i fix?

[AbhiPrasad]

Using ignoreErrors: ['AbortError'] should work here.
