Web.API not reporting exception

I am new to raygun and and I am adding to a Web.API project. I followed the instructions for ASP.NET by adding a module to the system.webServer section in web.config.

I was not able to see any errors that I generated in the dashboard.

I think added the code to an ExceptionFilterAttribute and added the filter to the HttpConfiguration filters in the WebApiConfig.cs file.

The code I added was:

        var exception = context.Exception;
        new RaygunClient().Send(exception);

After I did this it worked.

Is there something I am missing in order to get the exception reporting to work with the http module?

Did I sort it out??

Is the proper way to integrate to use the two lines of code to send an exception to raygun?

This seems reasonable and not complicated but I want to make sure I am integrating the proper way.

Thanks, Mike

Hi Mike,

There is a community provider for WebAPI which you can view here, hopefully this is helpful

I've just started integrating and found the same problem in my testing. Given the slickness of the rest of raygun I was a little surprised to say the least.

My interim solution:

public class RaygunWebApiExceptionLogger : IExceptionLogger
{
    public Task LogAsync(ExceptionLoggerContext context, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        new RaygunClient().Send(context.Exception);

        return Task.FromResult(false);
    }
}

and in the application setup

GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Services.Add(typeof(IExceptionLogger), new RaygunWebApiExceptionLogger());

OK after checking that Send() is not async I've revised it to this:

    public Task LogAsync(ExceptionLoggerContext context, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        var raygunClient = new RaygunClient();

        return Task.Factory.StartNew(() => raygunClient.Send(context.Exception));
    }
