Recently we have made some changes regarding how LiveSession is tracking visited URLs in the recorded sessions. 

Dynamic URLs

We've added support for dynamic changes of URLs to fully support the routing of modern Single Page Applications.  Every change of URL is now added as a "Visit" event and shown on the events' timeline:

Filters

This change affects the filters. From now, you can search for sessions with dynamic URL changes. 

We have also added to URL filters support for the fragment(#) and query search:

Previously used "query param" and "query values" was deprecated.

Now, you can edit your segments directly from the Sessions view. Simply make your changes to the filters, and click "save" or "save as...".

We've also made some improvements to the way segments are displayed. Now, you can see filters, remove a single filter or clear all. 

We hope you enjoy these new improvements! As always, if you have any questions or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to us on chat.

We are happy to announce a new improvement to the Dashboard - the ability to see your sessions over time.

More info about page load performance is now available in the session player events list. You can now check how long taken the DOM Loaded, Page Loaded, and First Contentful Paint:

Each of those values can be used as a filter to find the sessions:

It's possible to delete individual sessions from now. To delete session open right-top dropdown in playback view, and click delete. This option is only visible for users with admin and owner role permissions.

Please note that deleting sessions will not refill your session quota.

We’re exited to introduce new LiveSession pricing and Free plan!

LiveSession has been building more robust features and tools to help you maximize the potential of user analytics.

We are also delighted to introduce our new Free plan at LiveSession! It is completely free of charge for small teams of up to 3 users and 2 websites. No payment information is required either! The Free plan comes with 1 000 sessions monthly. 

In the sessions list, we have added an information about session status. From now, while session is online you will see the green indicator. Online session means that we still collecting the data and the duration can change.

User details panel got a new look. We made changes by adding additional information about the user and his sessions. From now, you can check the All sessions or Matching sessions along with statistics. Also, we added a "User info" tab with extra data from last recorded sessions (such as custom properties).

User info tab:

We’re introducing an easier way to protect sensitive content from being recorded. From now on, you can exclude elements by creating a rule in LiveSession's application. 

This feature is available in website settings under the "Recording elements" tab. To create a new rule, click on the "Add rule" button and add a selector of the element you want to anonymize. Please note that the child nodes will be affected too (eg. excluding "body" will anonymize the whole page). Also, changes in the rules are applied to future sessions only.

In the session player view, we have added a dropdown list of pages visited by the user during the session. You can see how much time your visitor spent on each page and go to the specific part of the recording:
