Replay Chrome is currently built for automated recordings with tools like Playwright and Cypress so it does not have a record button yet. If you would like to use Chrome to record a replay, you can use the replay CLI.

Dependencies

Replay Chrome should work on most modern versions of Linux, but it does require a relatively modern version of libc (v2.27+). We’ve tested Replay Chrome against the following versions of Ubuntu:

• Ubuntu 18.04
• Ubuntu 20.04
• Ubuntu 22.04

npm i -g @replayio/replay

Launching Chrome

npx @replayio/replay@latest launch <https://replay.io>

Viewing a replay

Replay Chrome will record every tab by default. When you want to view a replay, you can use the replay CLI to either upload the most recent recording or view the most recent recordings and upload just the one you want.
