Using highlight.io in any frontend framework
Add the following script tag to the head section of your index.html file.
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/highlight.run"></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Your Application -->
</body>
</html>
Grab your project ID from app.highlight.io/ setup and insert it in place of <YOUR_PROJECT_ID>. Call the init() method just below the initialize script tag in the head section of your index.html file.
To get started, we recommend setting environment, appVersion, and networkRecording. Refer to our docs on SDK configuration to read more about these options.
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/highlight.run"></script>
<script>
H.init('<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>', { // Get your project ID from https://app.highlight.io/setup
environment: 'production',
appVersion: 'commit:abcdefg12345',
networkRecording: {
enabled: true,
recordHeadersAndBody: true,
urlBlocklist: [
// insert urls you don't want to record here
],
},
});
</script>

Identify users to tie their sessions/errors to their account. We suggest doing this before/after the authentication flow of your web app.
The first argument of identify will be searchable via the property identifier, and the second property is searchable by the key of each item in the object. Read more about this in our identifying users section.
H.identify('jay@highlight.io', {
id: 'very-secure-id',
phone: '867-5309',
bestFriend: 'jenny'
});Check your dashboard for a new session. Don't see anything? Send us a message in our community and we can help debug.
The next step is instrumenting your backend to tie logs/errors to your frontend sessions. Read more about this in our backend instrumentation section.
