Mismatch between the sentry documentation and the code

[fabian20ro]

In the documentation it is recommended that we use the CheckIn mechanism:

https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/crons/#check-ins-recommended

However, in the code, there's @ApiStatus.Experimental on all the classes/methods from this page:

e.g. https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-java/blob/main/sentry/src/main/java/io/sentry/CheckIn.java

Is the api not really experimental anymore (is the annotation misleading) or is the documentation wrong?

Thank you.

Thanks for reaching out @fabian20ro. We usually add the @ApiStatus.Experimental annotation on new features to retain a bit of freedom in shaping APIs. We simply haven't removed the experimental annotation from API, feel free to use them. There's currently no plans to change the check in APIs.
