v1.317.0
Features
Detect and report AJAX payloads
Introduces support of AJAX payload capture for XMLHttpRequest and Fetch API calls. When enabled, the browser agent will captures request/response bodies, headers, and query parameters, with automatic detection and parsing of GraphQL operations. Payload capture is configurable to monitor all requests or only failures, with built-in size limits (4KB per attribute) and obfuscation support for sensitive data protection.
New AjaxRequest Attributes
Payload Capture - The Browser Agent can now capture and report request and response payloads for AJAX calls, providing deeper insights into network activity and API interactions.
Configuration:
Enable payload capture using the ajax.capture_payloads configuration option:
'all'- Capture payloads for all AJAX requests'failures'- Capture only failed requests (HTTP errors, network errors, or GraphQL errors)none- Disable payload capture (default)
New Attributes on AjaxRequest Events: When AJAX payloads are captured, new attributes are automatically included on AjaxRequest events:
requestQuery- URL query parametersrequestHeaders,responseHeaders- HTTP headersrequestBody,responseBody- Request and response payloads (text-based formats only: JSON, XML, GraphQL, plain text)
GraphQL Detection: When GraphQL errors are detected, a new additional attribute is automatically included on AjaxRequest events:
operationHasErrors- Indicates if the operation returned errors
All captured data is automatically truncated to 4KB per attribute and supports obfuscation patterns for sensitive information.
Enhance obfuscation to support event filter
Obfuscation behavior can now be configured to apply only to a subset of event types, using the eventFilter property, which supports an array of event type strings per obfuscation rule. When supplied, the obfuscation rule will only be applied when the event type matches one of the items in the eventFilter array. For backwards compatibility, not supplying an eventFilter property on configuration rules will apply the rule to all data.
Bug fixes
Calculate browser_stack_hash from truncated stack trace
Calculate the browser stack hash off of the truncated stack trace instead of the non-truncated stack trace. Before this change, first-occurrence harvests of JSE events can have a different browser stack hash from future harvests of the same stack trace if it was truncated. This will improve error grouping of JavaScriptError events.
Get responseBodySize from body if content-length is missing
Addresses an issue where AjaxRequest events inaccurately reported a responseSize of 0 or undefined due to a lack of fallback mechanisms and overly restrictive falsy checks. Introduced a fallback mechanism that calculates response sizes from captured payloads for Fetch and XHR requests when the content-length header is missing.
Patch handling of inlining images for Session Replay
Fixes an issue where Session Replay may leave an image broken in the live DOM. In this version, the underlying rrweb version will avoid manipulating the live image on the DOM.
Support statement
New Relic recommends that you upgrade the agent regularly to ensure that you're getting the latest features and performance benefits. Older releases will no longer be supported when they reach end-of-life. Release dates are reflective of the original publish date of the agent version.
New browser agent releases are rolled out to customers in small stages over a period of time. Because of this, the date the release becomes accessible to your account may not match the original publish date. Please see this status dashboard for more information.
