Patch Changes
3b02a78Thanks @ksvat! - The replayer can now yield to the event loop while fast-forwarding to a seek target, via the new opt-inseekYieldBudgetMsplayer config. Seeking in a long, event-dense recording rebuilds the target frame by re-applying every event since the last full snapshot in one uninterrupted main-thread pass, which can block the page for many seconds and trigger the browser's "Page Unresponsive" dialog; when a yield budget is set, the rebuild runs in time-budgeted chunks instead, and a newer seek cancels any rebuild still in flight so rapid scrubbing only pays for the last seek. A superseded rebuild also resets the machine'slastPlayedEventso the next seek performs a full rebuild rather than trusting a partially-applied history. The default (0) keeps the previous fully-synchronous behavior.(2026-07-30)

92427a1Thanks @turnipdabeets! - Add canvas mask regions to session replay canvas capture:session_recording.canvasCapture.maskRegionsFnis called once per canvas per captured frame, and the returned regions (CSS pixels, relative to the canvas) are painted black in the captured frame before it is encoded — letting apps that render into canvas (e.g. Flutter web via CanvasKit) mask content that DOM-based masking cannot see.The return value decides what happens to that canvas's frame:
[]— nothing to mask; the frame is recorded as is.null— regions could not be computed; the frame is skipped rather than recorded unmasked.maskRegionsFnnot set — canvases are recorded unmasked and canvas capture behavior is unchanged.Configuring
maskRegionsFnalso disables canvas pixel serialization in DOM full snapshots (rr_dataURL) — that path never sees the mask regions, so skipping it closes the route that could otherwise embed unmasked canvas stills in a snapshot; the canvas repaints from the masked frame stream instead. Every canvas the provider answers — with regions or[]— re-sends an unchanged frame as a keyframe every 30s, so after a full snapshot or a seek an idle canvas repaints within at most 30s.An app whose real provider only exists once its runtime has booted chooses what happens in between by what it declares in
posthog.init: a function covering the whole canvas blacks those frames out,() => nullskips them, and declaring nothing records them. Client-side only, cannot be set via remote configuration. (2026-07-29)Patch Changes

c7099e9Thanks @lucasheriques! - fix(surveys): only wait for feature flags on surveys that repeatSurveys stopped being shown while feature flags were still loading, even when a cached
enabled value for their internal targeting flag was already available. Popover and widget
surveys recovered on the next evaluation, but a survey your own code renders (type
api)is evaluated once, so it was dropped for that page load and never reappeared.
That wait is only needed for surveys that repeat, where stored per-survey state is keyed by
iteration and cannot be relied on to record that someone already answered. Other surveys
keep one stable key that already prevents a repeat display, so they are now evaluated
against the cached flag right away. (2026-07-29)

ba7042bThanks @turnipdabeets! - Fix session replay recordings being unplayable after the session rotated in a tab with no user interaction. When a session expired and rotated (for example in a long-lived background tab), a recorder that had not yet seen user interaction kept attributing snapshots — including full snapshots — to the previous session, so the new session never received a playable full snapshot. The recorder now restarts on rotation in this state, re-syncs its session id from the session manager if they ever diverge, and flushes its buffer on the normal cadence before the first user interaction instead of holding data until the next rotation or page unload.(2026-07-23)

or a single resolved one. Previously a user sitting on one open, unresolved ticket was
locked into that conversation with no way to raise a second issue. (2026-07-22)

da6e082Thanks @posthog! - fix(exception-autocapture): don't throw when the page's onerror handler is non-callableThe wrapped
window.onerror,window.onunhandledrejection, andconsole.errorhandlerschained to the page's original handler using optional chaining, which only guards against
null/undefined. When a page had one of these set to a truthy non-callable value (e.g.via
Object.defineProperty, or clobbered by another script/extension), our wrapper threw aTypeErrorfrom inside its own handler. We now check the original handler is actuallycallable before invoking it and fall back to
falseotherwise. (2026-07-22)#4209
569fc62Thanks @posthog! - Session recording no longer emits an uncaughtTypeError: Illegal invocationfrom the input observer's synchronous native-setter call. The previous fix only guarded the deferred hooked setter; the synchronousoriginal.set.call(this, value)still ran with a non-nativethis(a proxy, custom element, or cross-realm object) and threw inside the host page's own assignment. The recorder now probes the native getter — which fails the same internal-slot brand check as the setter — before forwarding: a non-nativethisis skipped, so the recorder no longer re-throws from its own frame, while genuine elements (including file inputs that legitimately throw on a programmatic value) keep their native behavior. The input event handler andgetInputTypeare similarly guarded against reading native accessors on a non-nativethis.(2026-07-22)
#4068
d5e1188Thanks @posthog! - Fix event-triggered surveys re-displaying in a fresh session without their trigger firing. A non-repeatable event/action-triggered survey that was shown but never dismissed or answered had its activation persisted indefinitely, so it kept being treated as "triggered" on later page loads. The persisted activation is now scoped to the triggering session: it still survives a reload within that session, but a brand-new session drops it until the trigger fires again. Repeatable surveys are unaffected.(2026-07-22)
#4205
de3ad61Thanks @posthog! - Warn when session recording masking options inposthog.initshadow the project-level "Privacy and masking" setting. Client-side masking still intentionally takes precedence, but previously the override was silent — a developer could set masking in the dashboard and see it quietly ignored because their SDK config diverged. The recorder now logs a console warning (in debug mode) naming the diverging fields so the precedence is self-explaining.(2026-07-22)

check ran against a cached internal targeting flag before fresh flags had loaded. The

targeting flag, and forces a flag reload after a survey is completed so the flag recomputes
promptly. (2026-07-21)

4a2ecf5Thanks @posthog! - Session recording no longer emits an uncaughtNotAllowedError("Sharing constructed stylesheets in multiple documents is not allowed") when a page assigns aCSSStyleSheetconstructed in a different document toadoptedStyleSheets. That assignment is the host page's own invalid operation, but the recorder's patched setter sat on the call stack, so the exception was attributed to rrweb and churned fingerprints in error tracking. The recorder now contains this specific rejection (matched by its standardizedNotAllowedErrorname, so it works even when the setter throws from an iframe realm) and skips recording those sheets, while still re-throwing any other native-setter error so host-page behaviour is preserved.(2026-07-15)

0e8ad14Thanks @robbie-c! - Stamp the current hostname as$snapshot_hoston every$snapshotevent the session recorder sends. The value is derived from the page URL after it passes through the existing replay URL masking pipeline (maskCapturedNetworkRequestFn/ deprecatedmaskNetworkRequestFn, hash stripping, personal-data query-param masking), so it cannot bypass a customer's masking config. When masking removes the URL or the masked result doesn't parse as a URL, the property is omitted entirely.

6dd8827Thanks @lucasheriques! - chore: survey seen-key and repeat-activation helpers now live in @posthog/core, shared by the web and React Native SDKs. Core's survey enums are now const-object literal unions (matching the web SDK's existing pattern), so the same values type-check across both SDKs. No behavior change. Type-level note: enum members no longer work as standalone type annotations (e.g.SurveyType.Popoveras a type); use the exported union types instead. Runtime values are unchanged.(2026-07-14)

dc2aa5bThanks @posthog! - Normalize the error tracking rate-limiter config to first-class options. The browser SDK now readsexceptionRateLimiterRefillRate/exceptionRateLimiterBucketSizeonerror_tracking, with the previous double-underscore__exceptionRateLimiterRefillRate/__exceptionRateLimiterBucketSizeoptions deprecated but still honoured as a fallback. The option shape (ExceptionRateLimiterConfig) and default-resolution logic (resolveExceptionRateLimiterConfig) now live in@posthog/coreand are shared between the browser and Node SDKs.(2026-07-14)

1eabd30Thanks @turnipdabeets! - HandlesendBeaconquota rejections instead of silently dropping events. A beacon rejected by the browser (over the page's shared ~64KiB in-flight keepalive quota) is now split in half and re-sent recursively so the batch delivers as far as the quota allows; a rejected payload that cannot be split falls back to a non-keepalive fetch and logs a warning. Previously the boolean return ofsendBeaconwas ignored and an over-quota unload batch was lost with no signal.(2026-07-14)

ab10064Thanks @posthog! - Bound autocapture's DOM ancestor walks against abnormal host-page DOM trees.autocapturePropertiesForElementandshouldCaptureElementnow stop climbing theparentNodechain after 1000 ancestors or if they revisit a node (only possible when a page patchesparentNode, since native DOMs cannot contain cycles), instead of walking indefinitely. WhenshouldCaptureElementcannot finish checking ancestors forph-no-capture/ph-sensitive, it fails closed and reports the element as not capturable. Behavior on normal DOM trees is unchanged.(2026-07-14)

17d956cThanks @posthog! - Log network-level fetch failures from posthog-js's own request layer (ad blocker, dropped connection, CORS, page teardown) atwarninstead oferror. The browser rejects these with a genericTypeError(Failed to fetch, Firefox'sNetworkError..., or Safari'sLoad failed); they are already caught and retried by the request queue, so they are expected noise rather than SDK errors —_fetchnow gives them the samewarntreatment as our own timeout aborts. Genuine, unexpected errors still log aterror.(2026-07-14)

7c339beThanks @turnipdabeets! - Encode uncompressedsendBeaconbodies as base64 form data so the beacon keeps a CORS-simple content type. Previously an uncompressed unload beacon was sent asapplication/json, which forces a CORS preflight — a preflight cannot complete while the page unloads, so on cross-origin hosts the browser silently dropped the POST and the final batch of events was lost. Compression is inactive whenever the remote config request fails (flaky network, blocked endpoint), when the config response omitssupportedCompression, or withdisable_compression: true.(2026-07-13)

4ebb618Thanks @mikenicholls88! - MakejsonStringifycircular-safe so event serialization never throws. Previously a captured property holding a circular value — most commonly a DOM node that retains a React fiber pointing back at the element — madeJSON.stringifythrowConverting circular structure to JSON; withcapture_exceptionsenabled that throw was recaptured as a new$exception, at times in a loop. On a throw we now fall back tosafeJsonStringifyfrom@posthog/core. The fast (non-circular) path is unchanged, and only true cycles become"[Circular]", so shared-but-acyclic references keep their real values.(2026-07-13)

f630394Thanks @posthog! - Fix aRangeError: Maximum call stack size exceededoriginating from the shared rrwebpatch()helper. It patches shared globals such asElement.prototype.attachShadow(shadow-dom-manager) and the DOM/canvas observers, so multiple recorder instances or repeated start/stop cycles wrap the same global more than once. Previously an out-of-order restore silently no-op'd, leaving the wrapper in the call path; repeated cycles grew the wrapper chain without bound until a real call walked a chain deep enough to overflow the stack. Wrappers now delegate through a mutable per-layer link so any layer can be torn down even when newer wrappers sit on top of it, keeping the chain bounded. Recording behavior is unchanged. This applies the same fix as #4063 (fetch/XHR) to the shared helper so every rrweb-record caller inherits the bounded-chain behavior.(2026-07-10)

86bb3a5Thanks @DanielVisca! - add the posthog.metrics API (count, gauge, histogram) — alphaA statsd-style pre-aggregating metrics client for the PostHog Metrics product (alpha). Samples are folded into per-series aggregates in memory (counts sum, gauges keep the last value, histograms accumulate buckets) and flushed periodically as OTLP/JSON to
/i/v1/metrics— one data point per series per flush window, no matter how many calls. No OpenTelemetry SDK setup required:Configure via
metrics: { serviceName, environment, flushIntervalMs, maxSeriesPerFlush, beforeSend, ... }. (2026-07-08)Patch Changes

45f17eeThanks @TueHaulund! - fix session replay leaking a shadow-root observer when a same-origin iframe is removedFollow-up to the shadow-observer iframe-teardown fix:
takeFullSnapshot'sonSerializeregisters every shadow root with the top-level document, so a root nested in a same-origin iframe was keyed to the wrong document and its observer/buffer were not disconnected when that iframe was removed (they lingered until the next full snapshot).addShadowRootnow derives the owning document from the host element, so per-document teardown matches iframe-nested roots too.

The release tooling now recursively includesdist/toolbar/(with explicit JS content types for the strict-MIME ESM chunks) across the immutable, major-alias, and compatibility upload prefixes, and the workflow accepts the canonicaltoolbar.js/toolbar.csslayout.

38bb185Thanks @TueHaulund! - fix session replay silently dropping shadow DOM mutations after an iframe teardownThe single shared ShadowDomManager observes every shadow root on the page, but MutationBuffer.reset() disconnected it. That reset fires whenever any one buffer is torn down, so an iframe being removed or navigating away disconnected every shadow-root observer page-wide. Shadow DOM content (for example a widget mounted in an open shadow root) then stopped recording until the next periodic full snapshot re-registered it. Buffer teardown now releases only its own resources; global shadow observation is reset by takeFullSnapshot and on recording stop. (2026-07-08)

24aadd5Thanks @posthog! - Fix aRangeError: Maximum call stack size exceededthat could originate from the sharedpatch()fetch/XHR wrapper. posthog-js wrapswindow.fetchin two independent places (tracing headers and session-recording network capture), so their restores routinely ran out of order. Previously an out-of-order restore silently no-op'd, leaving the wrapper in the call path; repeated start/stop cycles grew the wrapper chain without bound until a realfetchwalked a chain deep enough to overflowConfiguration
