In addition, broken subtraces can occur when Sentry receives an error for a trace, but the corresponding transaction does not exist. In this case, the error will not appear on the trace view and the trace navigator won't appear on the **Issue Details** page. In these cases you can click "Open In Discover" to see all the events in the trace.

Broken subtraces may be caused by:
- Sample rates may prevent the SDK from sending a transaction, so not all errors will have an associated transaction in Sentry.
- [Ad blockers](/platforms/javascript/troubleshooting/#dealing-with-ad-blockers) may prevent transactions in browsers being sent, but HTTP requests to backend projects will still create child transactions
- [Rate-limiting](/product/accounts/quotas/#limiting-events) on a project may cause only some events to be sent to Sentry
- [Project permissions](/product/accounts/membership/#restricting-access) may mean you do not have access to transactions in another project
