@aguynamedben we’ll release it Today/Tomorrow after merging some outstanding code. It’ll definitely be done before the end of the week.

I have found a workaround for now: just ignore 429 errors in beforeSend. it’s a slightly shotgun approach, but makes the infinite retry loop go away.

Sentry.init({
  dsn: 'https://123@sentry.io/123',
  debug: true,
  beforeSend(event) {
    return event.message.match(/SentryError: HTTP Error \(429\)/) ? null : event;
  },
});
