This release brings expanded support for custom login flows in web scans—helping you cover more complex authentication scenarios with ease along with OpenTelemetry SDK integrations to give you more flexibility in capturing and analyzing API traffic.
Apart from these, we’ve also made improvements that simplify target management, provide clearer visibility into subscriptions, and ensure a smoother overall product experience

Email-based verification and magic links
Pop-up or modal-based logins
And many more unique authentication setups

Ingest API traffic directly from OpenTelemetry collectors.
Seamlessly integrate with existing observability pipelines
Capture traces from popular SDKs such as Python, Node.js, Go, and Java.
Automatically collect request and response data without complex setup.
