What’s new: Sentry integration, Screen reader landmark support, and more (0.98)

Sentry integration

Height + Sentry logos

Level up your monitoring game by connecting Sentry to Height 💪

  • Link Height tasks to Sentry issues to post updates to the task and update the issues statuses as the task is updated.
  • Create new tasks on Height when specific Sentry alert rules are triggered.
Gif of marking a Height task as Done also automatically updates the linked Sentry issue status to Resolved.

Landmarks for better screen reader accessibility

We added landmarks to task pages to make it easier for people using assistive technologies to navigate to specific sections and find content quickly.

Refreshed subtasks menu

Have trouble remembering what’s the difference between indented vs collapsed vs flattened subtasks? Our refreshed subtasks menu adds visual indicators to make it clear which option you’re looking for.
