Use this guide when you already have a completely custom OpenTelemetry setup or when you intend to add a custom OpenTelemetry setup next to the Sentry SDK.
+Setting `skipOpenTelemetrySetup: true` disables the Sentry SDK's automatic OpenTelemetry configuration, **requiring** you perform the setup manually. For example, to ensure errors are correctly associated with their scope, you must add the `SentryContextManager` to your OpenTelemetry setup. Details on the required manual setup are available further down on this page.
+
If you are looking to simply add individual OpenTelemetry instrumentation to your Sentry setup, you should read Adding Additional OpenTelemetry Instrumentation instead.
