@hyperdx/browser

Getting Started

Install

npm install @hyperdx/browser

Initialize HyperDX

import HyperDX from '@hyperdx/browser';

HyperDX.init({
  apiKey: '<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>',
  service: 'my-frontend-app',
  tracePropagationTargets: [/api.myapp.domain/i], // Set to link traces from frontend to backend requests
  consoleCapture: true, // Capture console logs (default false)
  advancedNetworkCapture: true, // Capture full HTTP request/response headers and bodies (default false)
});

(Optional) Attach User Information or Metadata

Attaching user information will allow you to search/filter sessions and events in HyperDX. This can be called at any point during the client session. The current client session and all events sent after the call will be associated with the user information.

userEmail, userName, and teamName will populate the sessions UI with the corresponding values, but can be omitted. Any other additional values can be specified and used to search for events.

HyperDX.setGlobalAttributes({
  userEmail: user.email,
  userName: user.name,
  teamName: user.team.name,
  // Other custom properties...
});

(Optional) Send Custom Actions

To explicitly track a specific application event (ex. sign up, submission, etc.), you can call the addAction function with an event name and optional event metadata.

Example:

HyperDX.addAction('Form-Completed', {
  formId: 'signup-form',
  formName: 'Signup Form',
  formType: 'signup',
});

(Optional) Enable Network Capture Dynamically

To enable or disable network capture dynamically, simply invoke the enableAdvancedNetworkCapture or disableAdvancedNetworkCapture function as needed.

HyperDX.enableAdvancedNetworkCapture();
