Summary

With the release of Sentry’s Session Replay tool, backend developers can now easily identify and prioritize issues that occur on the frontend, even if they don't directly experience them. Sentry's Session Replay records the user's browser session, but only shows issues that happen within that session. The tool is integrated with frontend errors and handles this case beautifully. By linking replays to backend endpoints via Backend Error linking, developers can get a complete end-to-end view of their APIs. To use Session Replay, developers need to set up the minimum required SDK version for their project and configure trace propagation. With Session Replay in action, developers can gain intimate insight into user experiences, identify priority issues, and accelerate their ability to fix problems.
