👋 Welcome to Multiplayer!

Sick of grepping through log files, hot-potato hand offs, and relying on multiple tools?

In just a few steps, you'll be able to:

  • Capture and share full-stack session replays that correlate frontend screens, backend traces, metrics, logs, and full request/response content and headers.
  • Use interactive notebooks to auto-generate test scripts, reproduce issues, test hypotheses, and hand off knowledge cleanly across teams and time zones
  • Auto-document your architecture in real-time and gain full insight into your running system

Step-by-Step Guide​

(1) Sign up​

Visit go.multiplayer.app to sign up using Google, GitHub, GitLab, or your preferred email address. If you run into any login issues, check our troubleshooting steps.

🔑 Pro Tip: Once signed up, your workspace, project, and example content are automatically created.

(2) Capture Your First Full-Stack Session Recordings​

Install the Multiplayer debugger browser extension to start recording session replays with frontend screens, public API calls, and request/response content.

(3) Get Deeper Insights into Your Full-Stack Session Recordings​

Enrich each session recording with backend context from your existing telemetry data, automatically linking frontend screens to the relevant traces, logs, and metrics.

Navigate to the full-stack session recordings in your Multiplayer project and configure OpenTelemetry.

(4) Start Designing, Testing, and Documenting your APIs​

Explore notebooks to collaboratively design, test, document, and debug your APIs and integrations.

🔑 Pro Tip: You can create a notebook from a session recording. This auto-generates a runnable test scripts, complete with real API calls, payloads, and code logic—that mirrors the failure path.

(5) Auto-Document your Architecture​

Automatically generate always-accurate system documentation and architecture diagrams so that your team can immediately understand how the whole system works and move faster when things break.

You can visulize your system architecture (components, APIs, dependencies, flows, etc.) in list format or diagram in the system dashboard.

(6) Invite Your Team​

Bring your team on board for real-time collaboration in designing, developing and managing your system information and architecture.
