🚨 New Browser Console Logs Report 🚨

We’ve officially released the Browser Logs Report 🎉

Why this matters:

  • Surfaces hidden browser errors and warnings that normally require dev tools to catch 🔍
  • Saves QA and dev teams hours of manual debugging ⏱️
  • Provides full context (page, tag, script, location) for faster troubleshooting ⚡

How it works:

During audits, ObservePoint automatically captures browser console logs (INFO, WARNING, ERROR), ties them to the page and script source, and presents them in an easy-to-read report.

👉 Check it out in the platform under Reports → Browser Logs.

We’ve rolled out an update to User & Account Management that makes handling usernames much simpler.

What’s new:

  • Users now have two states: Active and Inactive.
  • Instead of permanently deleting a user, you can move them to the inactive state.

If they return (common when someone comes back or changes roles), you can reactivate their account—no need to create a new username.
