10 New Raygun Features in 10 Days on Raygun Blog

10 new Raygun features: #9 Quick new version of the Raygun Sidekick

Tue, 22 Dec 2015 11:01:40 +0000

Hot on the heels of Jason’s better iOS error grouping feature from our 10 New Raygun Features In 10 Days campaign, he also took the opportunity to released a new version of the Raygun Sidekick. This new version fixes a signing issue that was making it difficult to start the app for the first time, particularly on El Capitan. Additionally, the Mac menu bar icon now supports the dark theme – changing the color to white for people who love the darker menu bar tint.

10 new Raygun features: #8 Better iOS error grouping

Mon, 21 Dec 2015 11:01:20 +0000

On day 8 of our 10 New Raygun Features In 10 Days campaign, we challenged Jason to work on improving the iOS error grouping for Raygun.

Up until now, iOS crash reports have been grouped together in Raygun by the exception messages. It would be far better to include the backtrace as part of the grouping logic as we do with other languages, but iOS reports don’t initially have backtraces when they first enter the Raygun cloud. Backtraces for iOS reports are obtained by symbolicating the reports with dSYM files which so far has been done as a post process.

10 new Raygun features: #7 Source content support

Sun, 20 Dec 2015 11:01:42 +0000

Speaking of small features that make a big difference (like Callum’s Faster error grouping selection), on day 5 of our 10 New Raygun Features In 10 Days campaign, we asked Alex to work on the source content support, a feature of source maps that Raygun didn’t use to support. The addition of this feature makes getting source code snippet insertion a lot easier.

Raygun Source Mapping now detects and uses the sourcesContent property that is optionally included in map files. This allows source snippet insertion with ease to give you a better overview of what and where exactly an error occured in your JavaScript source code. Any source map generated with the option –source-map-include-sources using Uglify2Js should enable easy source snippet insertion.

10 new Raygun features: #6 Assign error groups to users/teams

Sat, 19 Dec 2015 11:01:52 +0000

On day 6 of our 10 New Raygun Features In 10 Days campaign, we challenged Jamie to work on the ability to assign error groups to a user. You remember Jamie from such blog posts as the Clickable URL’s feature!

Now you can assign an error group to a user or team, and see the errors you’ve been assigned on the crash reporting dashboard.

10 new Raygun features: #5 Fast error group selection

Fri, 18 Dec 2015 21:00:05 +0000

After the great feedback we’ve gotten from Jeremy’s instant bulk deletes feature, on day 5 of our 10 New Raygun Features In 10 Days campaign, we challenged Callum to make the error group selection process even better and faster. This was another much requested feature and one sure makes life a lot easier!

Now, when you want to change the error group status in Raygun, you can now select multiple error group check boxes by clicking on one, holding down shift then clicking on another further down the list. Tiny feature but one of those critical quality-of-life things!

10 new Raygun features: #4 Clickable URLs

Thu, 17 Dec 2015 21:40:23 +0000

Feature number 4 in our 10 New Raygun Features In 10 Days campaign was bought to you by Jamie!

Now if you send any URLs in the custom data part of any error report, they will be clickable in the UI.

So your error report used to look like this:

And now it looks like this!

And here it is in action:

10 new Raygun features: #3 Export users to CSV

Thu, 17 Dec 2015 04:49:11 +0000

A big shout out to Ryan from Melbourne, who brought this issue to our attention. While we were chatting to Ryan recently about what he would do to improve Crash Reporting, he suggested there should be an easier way to see the entire list of affected user email addresses and better yet, be able to export all of these affected users and their email addresses to a CSV file for his customer service team.

10 new Raygun features : #2 Instant bulk deletes

Wed, 16 Dec 2015 00:00:26 +0000

On day 2 of our 10 New Raygun Features In 10 Days campaign, we challenged Jeremy to make the bulk deletes instant. If you’ve missed yesterday’s feature, you can check out search form added for forum & feature requests blog post.

It has been quite a while since we introduced the ability to bulk delete errors either by selection or wholesale by status in Raygun, however one aspect of this process which we have had ongoing feedback on is the time it can take for the deletes to be reflected in your Crash Reporting dashboard.

10 new Raygun features: #1 Search forum & feature requests

Mon, 14 Dec 2015 21:26:45 +0000

The festive seasons are upon us and to celebrate, the Raygun product team will introduce a new feature each day (10 in total), starting from today until Christmas!

So, to kick things off, Leo has added a new search form to the Raygun forum pages such as the feature request pages for Crash Reporting & Real User Monitoring.

We added this feature because although you folks were always able to search the site (including these pages) via the main search link at the top of the website, you told us that this was not intuitive enough and needed to be more closely associated with the individual pages that you wished to search through. So we’ve listened and have made this a lot easier for everyone.
