Lumigo’s Programmatic Errors are custom errors that are logged from your Lambda handler’s code. These Programmatic Errors are detected by Lumigo during analysis, and result in an Alert being sent.

Viewing Programmatic Errors in the dashboard

In this first image, you can see a programmatic error titled “Prog Error” appear as a viable Issue Type in the Issues list.

This image shows how programmatic errors are broken out during the graph view of a transaction.

Configuring Programmatic Errors

Programmatic Errors can be configured from anywhere within your Lambda handler’s code. Choose the appropriate snippet below:

from lumigo_tracer import report_error

report_error("<msg>")

*OR*

print("[LUMIGO_LOG] <YOUR_MESSAGE>")

console.log("[LUMIGO_LOG] <YOUR_MESSAGE>");
