DESCRIBE YOUR PR

Clarifies how the native and JavaScript layers interact when initializing the native SDKs manually with autoInitializeNativeSdk: false.

Resolves getsentry/sentry-react-native#6302

IS YOUR CHANGE URGENT?

  • None: Not urgent, can wait up to 1 week+

PRE-MERGE CHECKLIST

  • Checked Vercel preview for correctness, including links
  • PR was reviewed and approved by any necessary SMEs (subject matter experts)
  • PR was reviewed and approved by a member of the Sentry docs team

EXTRA RESOURCES

…alizeNativeSdk

Document that Sentry.init() in JS is still required, the dsn must be set
on both layers, options are not merged, and enabling tracing on both
layers produces duplicate transactions. Cross-link the v8 Capture App
Start Errors flow.
