Integrating OpenReplay with Sentry

• openreplay

  23 8,842 9.9 TypeScript

  Session replay and analytics tool you can self-host. Ideal for reproducing issues, co-browsing with users and optimizing your product.

  

Imagine physically testing your application to see what the user experience feels like and also looking for errors not caught by your automated testing. OpenReplay helps you do this at scale as it helps you replay the activities every user who used your application took until they encountered an error. These errors can then be submitted automatically to tools like Sentry for easy debugging and the best part is OpenReplay is open sourced so it can be hosted on your servers and you have full control over how the data is being used. Consider the GDPR which governs all matters of data protection in the EU, with a tool such as OpenReplay you’re safe knowing that you have full control over how the data is being used.

To integrate Sentry you must have a Sentry account If you haven’t created one, go to Sentry and create one. After authentication, create a new project. To connect OpenReplay to Sentry:

• InfluxDB

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• sentry-java

The last step is to extract the openReplaySessionToken from the header and add it to your Sentry scope (ideally using a middleware or decorator) in your backend. The method to do this depends on the programming language of your backend, you can consult the Sentry docs on how to configure scope. The snippet below shows how to configure a Sentry scope if your backend is built with node.js/express
