npm @datadog/browser-logs 7.0.0
v7.0.0

9 hours ago

This is the v7 major release. It removes deprecated options and legacy code paths accumulated over the v6 line, modernizes the build, and ships a more reliable session manager.

  • Smaller, faster bundle — dropping legacy browser shims and switching to ESM dynamic imports reduces the SDK footprint on modern browsers.
  • Better privacy out of the box — safer default privacy settings mean less risk of capturing sensitive content without explicit configuration.
  • More reliable sessions — modernized session manager with bug fixes, including around very short repetitive sessions.
  • Higher-quality data — deterministic sampling (consistent decisions across products), aborted requests no longer polluting error metrics, and a new session_renewal view loading type to better understand session boundaries.
  • A cleaner API — deprecated options and beta flags removed; what's left is the supported, stable surface going forward.
