The Scenario
You are the engineering lead on a thirty-person team. Sprint planning starts in ninety minutes. You need a triage-ready list of every high and medium priority unresolved Sentry issue across four projects so the team can assign owners and estimate effort in the room.
The data is in Sentry. You do not have it in a workbook yet.
The slow version before every sprint:
- Open Sentry, set the priority filter to high and medium, select the first project
- Read through the list, copy issue IDs and titles into an Excel workbook by hand
- Switch to the second project, repeat
- Switch to the third and fourth project, repeat
- Go back and fill in first-seen dates you missed on the first pass
- You walk into the room with two of the four projects covered.
The fast version is one prompt.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent inside your Excel workbook that reads Sentry for you, so you do not have to copy issue data by hand.
Open the SheetXAI sidebar and type:
Pull all unresolved Sentry issues with priority 'high' or 'medium' from organization 'my-org' across all projects and write each issue's ID, short ID, title, project, priority, and first-seen date into this workbook, one row per issue. Sort by priority descending, then first-seen date ascending.
SheetXAI calls the Sentry API, paginates through all four projects, and writes every matching issue into the workbook. The triage list is ready before the room fills up.
What You Get
A structured workbook with one row per unresolved high or medium priority issue:
- Issue ID and short ID — the Sentry identifiers your team uses in commits and comments
- Title — the error message exactly as it appears in Sentry
- Project — which of your four projects it belongs to
- Priority — high or medium, already sorted so the worst issues sit at the top
- First-seen date — how long this has been unresolved
Add an Owner column and an Effort column next to the Sentry data in the workbook, and you have a sprint planning artifact your team fills in during the meeting, not the night before.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
When issue titles are raw exception class names and your team uses area tags
Pull all unresolved high and medium priority Sentry issues from 'my-org'. For each issue, include the tag value for the 'area' tag if it exists, otherwise write 'untagged' in the Area column. Write issue ID, title, project, priority, first-seen date, and area into columns A through F.
When you only want issues that have affected more than ten users
Pull all unresolved Sentry issues with priority high or medium from 'my-org'. Only include issues where users affected is greater than 10. Write issue ID, title, project, priority, users affected, and first-seen date into columns A through F.
When one project is in maintenance mode and should be excluded
Pull all unresolved high and medium priority Sentry issues from 'my-org', excluding the project with slug 'legacy-monolith'. Write issue ID, title, project, priority, and first-seen date into this workbook.
When you want a severity summary at the top of the triage workbook before the full list
Pull all unresolved high and medium priority Sentry issues from 'my-org' across all projects. Write a summary table in rows 1 through 6 showing how many high and medium issues each project has. Then write the full issue list starting at row 8, with columns for issue ID, title, project, priority, users affected, and first-seen date.
The pattern: instead of filtering in Sentry and copying by hand, you describe the data shape you need and SheetXAI builds it into the workbook.
