Overview of Session Replays
Session Replays with Bugpilot is a powerful tool that helps you understand how users interact with your application. With the ability to record sessions on specific pages of your application, you can quickly identify user behavior and optimize your application to provide the best user experience possible.
Prerequisites
To start using Session Replays, you need to complete the Bugpilot setup:
Install the tracking code
Send user IDs or emails to Bugpilot
You can check if your Setup is complete by clicking Verify Installation from the Setup page:
Getting Started
Bugpilot records a sample of the sessions that visit the specified pages of your application. This means that you can choose which pages are most important to your business and only record sessions related to those pages.
Other pages will be ignored unless a user chooses to report a bug or you programmatically record sessions using the Bugpilot SDK or API.
Specify which Pages to Record
To start using Session Recording with Bugpilot, simply specify the pages you want to record and start watching recorded sessions:
Open the Bugpilot Dashboard
Navigate to Settings > Session Replays
Locate the Pages to Record section (see screenshot below)
Specify paths to pages you want to record sessions on (check the next paragraph for paths examples)
How to specify Page URLs
You can specify one, two, or three paths to pages you want to monitor. Specify only paths, starting with a slash (/).
Examples:
Page Path | Matched Page URLs |
/settings | |
/profile/avatar | |
/onboarding | |
/ |
Note: the Path "/" matches the home page only, and it does not match any sub-page.
