Quickstart

Start capturing errors, sessions, and Web Vitals in under 5 minutes.

1. Create an account

Sign up at vident.dev/register. Free tier includes 5,000 sessions per month.

2. Create a project

Projects group your environments (e.g., "Production", "Staging"). Create one and copy your API key from the auto-created Production environment.

3. Install the SDK

Terminal
npm install vident-browser

4. Initialize

Add two lines to your app entry point:

src/main.ts
import { createVidentBrowser } from 'vident-browser';

createVidentBrowser({
  apiKey: 'your-api-key',
});

// Errors, sessions, and Web Vitals captured automatically

For framework-specific setup, see the framework guides.

5. Set up alerts

Go to environment settings and add notification channels. We support:

  • Slack (webhook or OAuth app)
  • Discord (webhooks)
  • PagerDuty (Events API v2)
  • Email
  • Custom webhooks

6. You're done!

Vident will capture JavaScript errors, record user sessions, and track Web Vitals automatically. View everything in your dashboard.
