Fixes a regression which caused all trace ids generated to end in a 0.

Browser agent v1.249.0

v1.249.0

Features

Allow empty string for session replay masking value

Allow empty strings to be provided for session replay masking values, which helps the UI/API provide sane fallbacks for never-set values.

Bug fixes

loader missing sub-resource integrity hashes

Sub-resource integrity hashes were not being properly generated and included in the loader for async chunks related to session replay. This would cause a warning to appear in the browser console, but would not block those chunks from loading. This would have only affected customers taking part in the session replay limited preview.

Fix API warning messages

Fix warning messages given by API calls made before the agent has initialized.

Traceids not random when using webcrypto

Fix non-random hexadecimal generation when using the webcrypto api, which in turn creates non-random traceIds, that always end in 00.

Browser agent v1.247.0

v1.247.0

Features

Session Replay API

Add two new APIs for controlling session replay behaviors:

  • newrelic.recordReplay()
  • newrelic.pauseReplay()

Add relative timestamps to Session Replay payloads

Add relative timestamps to Session Replay payloads to allow for server-side clock skew adjustments and improve the API pagination experience.

Expose library versions used to capture session replay data

Expose library versions used to capture session replay data, which helps sync visualizations in the UI Replayer components across version migrations.

Add basic support for deferring the browser agent loader script

Add basic support for deferring the browser agent loader script, including exposing a DOM-level event for external use to indicate the agent is successfully running.

Enable SRI and nonce attributes for async chunks

Additional JavaScript resources loaded by the agent will now include a SHA512 integrity hash and will respect the presence of a nonce token on scripts loaded on the page. This gets the agent closer to being able to run within an environment with a more secure content security policy.

Add session durationMs to Session Replay payloads

Add current session's running duration to all outgoing session replay payloads for use with ingest estimations

v1.243.0

Features

Do not report ajax nodes in session traces if in deny list

Prevent ajax nodes derived from calls found in the ajax deny list from populating Session Trace payloads

Remove deprecated API inlineHit
