Vue.js

Learn how to set up highlight.io with your React application.
1
Install the npm package & SDK.

Install the npm package highlight.run in your terminal.

# with yarn yarn add highlight.run # with pnpm pnpm add highlight.run # with npm npm install highlight.run
Copy
2
Initialize the SDK in your frontend.

Grab your project ID from app.highlight.io/setup and insert it in place of <YOUR_PROJECT_ID>.
To get started, we recommend setting environment, version, and networkRecording. Refer to our docs on SDK configuration to read more about these options.

... import { H } from 'highlight.run'; import { createApp } from 'vue' import App from './App.vue' H.init('<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>', { environment: 'production', version: 'commit:abcdefg12345', networkRecording: { enabled: true, recordHeadersAndBody: true, urlBlocklist: [ // insert urls you don't want to record here ], }, }); ... createApp(App).mount('#app')
Copy
3
Identify users.

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' });

Verify installation

Check your dashboard for a new session. Don't see anything? Send us a message in our community and we can help debug.

5
Configure sourcemaps in CI. (optional)

To get properly enhanced stacktraces of your javascript app, we recommend instrumenting sourcemaps. If you deploy public sourcemaps, you can skip this step. Refer to our docs on sourcemaps to read more about this option.

# Upload sourcemaps to Highlight ... npx --yes @highlight-run/sourcemap-uploader upload --apiKey ${YOUR_ORG_API_KEY} --path ./build ...

Instrument your backend.

The next step is instrumenting your backend to tie logs/errors to your frontend sessions. Read more about this in our backend instrumentation section.
