Hey, thanks for writing in. As per https://sentry.io/organizations/is-decisions/issues/3486550756/events/d6f2d88e268e471abcdb57f527626255/json/ the values show up in the JSON, but it doesn't seem to be rendered by the frontend.

Here's the frontend code: https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/blob/master/static/app/components/events/contexts/state.tsx

@matejminar do you know what's going on here?

[Thanaen]

Thank you very much for the quick response!

Indeed, I had not thought at all to look in the raw JSON of the exception.

This reassures me that the data is correctly transmitted!

@Thanaen #5550 should make things clear - it seems the state context is expecting a different format.
