Browsing Browser Traces

Browser Monitoring now lets you explore individual traces to investigate specific user sessions.

Click Browse Trace in the Browser Overview section to open a detailed trace view.

Each trace represents a user visit, including page loads, navigation events, and fetched resources.

You can:

  • Move between traces using the Previous/Next buttons.
  • View session details such as platform, browser version, country, screen size, and timestamp.
  • Inspect each fetched resource (span) to understand how it was loaded.

For Single-Page Applications (SPA) or multi-page flows, the trace view also provides a Visitor Journey timeline.
