Chrome browser extension

The browser extension requires zero code and is the fastest way to get started with Multiplayer session recordings.

Configuration overview​

  • Install the Multiplayer browser extension from the Chrome Web Store (Chrome, Firefox, and Edge supported).
  • Toggle on “Enable session recording on this site”
  • Select a Multiplayer workspace and project
  • Start recording your first session

From the browser extension you can directly login into your Multiplayer account. If you don't already have one, create a free trial at go.multiplayer.app.

When you’re using the Multiplayer browser extension, session data is tied to a single tab and domain.

⚠️ Some websites may block script injection or restrict CORS access. If you run into issues, contact us.

Browser extension

Toggle on continuous recording​

  • Open the browser extension
  • Toggle on “Continuous recording”

Continuous recording gives you the ability to record all sessions automatically in the background (we keep a rolling record of your recent activity), so reproducing issues is never required. Multiplayer saves recordings the moment bugs or anomalies occur making it effortless to capture elusive, hard-to-reproduce problems.

ℹ️ For a detailed overview guide, please refer to: How Multiplayer auto-generates session recordings.

Connect your backend services for deeper insights​

To fully unlock true full stack visibility and deeper insights from your session recordings, you need to connect your backend to Multiplayer, sending your application's telemetry data—traces, logs, and request/response information—to our platform.

The most efficient way to do this is by leveraging OpenTelemetry, an industry standard for collecting telemetry data.

Follow Step 2 of the Multiplayer configuration guide to connect your backend.

Set up your IDE connection with our MCP server​

With the Multiplayer MCP (Model Context Protocol), you can feed your copilots and AI IDEs the complete system context they need: user actions, traces, logs, requests, responses, header data, plus user annotations.

No missing data, no guesswork. Your AI tools can generate accurate fixes, tests, and features with minimal prompting.

Choose your preferred language and follow the setup guide:
