Attachments live on the `Scope` and will be sent with all events.
Attachments live on the [`Scope`](/platforms/python/enriching-events/scopes/). The SDK sends all attachments on a given `Scope` with every non-transaction event captured within the `Scope`. Optionally, an attachment can be sent with all events, including transactions, when the attachment is added with the `add_to_transactions` option set to `True`.

```python
# Add an attachment
from sentry_sdk import configure_scope
from sentry_sdk import Scope

with configure_scope() as scope:
scope.add_attachment(bytes=b"Hello World!", filename="attachment.txt")
scope.add_attachment(path="/path/to/attachment/file.txt")
```

An attachment has the following fields:

`path`
# Scope.get_current_scope() or Scope.get_global_scope() can also be used.
# Read about the different scopes on our Scope docs page.
scope = Scope.get_isolation_scope()

The path to the attachment file. The `filename` and `content_type` will be inferred if not explicitly provided when using this mode.
# Add attachment titled "attachment.txt" with content "Hello World!"
scope.add_attachment(bytes=b"Hello World!", filename="attachment.txt")

`bytes`
# Attach the file located at /path/to/attachment/file.txt
scope.add_attachment(path="/path/to/attachment/file.txt")

The content of the attachment as bytes.

`filename`

The filename is required if using `bytes` and will be displayed in [sentry.io](https://sentry.io).
# This attachment will also be sent with transactions
scope.add_attachment(path="/other/attachment.txt", add_to_transactions=True)
```

`content_type`

The type of content stored in this attachment. Any [MIME type](https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml) may be used; the default is `application/octet-stream`.
The `add_attachment` method has the following parameters:
- `bytes`: Raw bytes of the attachment, or a function that returns the raw bytes. Must be provided unless a `path` to the attachment file is provided.
- `filename`: The filename of the attachment which we display in Sentry. Optional only if a `path` is provided, since we can infer the `filename` from the `path`.
- `path`: Path to a file to attach. Must be provided unless `bytes` is provided.
- `content_type`: The attachment's [MIME type](https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml). If not provided, it will be guessed from the attachment's file name provided via `filename` or inferred from `path`.
- `add_to_transactions`: Whether to add this attachment to transactions. Defaults to `False`.
