The Browser Console Logs Report automatically captures and surfaces browser console errors, warnings, and info messages during audits, giving teams visibility into hidden issues that impact site performance, compliance, and user experience. It ties each log to the specific page, script, and audit context for faster debugging and resolution.

Key Features

  • Automatic Capture – Collects all browser console messages (INFO, WARNING, SEVERE) during audits.

  • Severity Categorization – Groups logs by severity to highlight critical issues first.

  • Contextual Details – Links each log to the exact page, script source, line/column number, and audit run.

  • Frequency Tracking – Shows how often each error or warning occurred across pages.

  • Search & Filter – Easily filter by severity, page, tag, or script for focused troubleshooting.

  • Exportable Data – Download logs for sharing with dev, QA, or compliance teams.

  • Scalable Coverage – Surfaces issues across entire site scans, not just single pages.

This guide covers common jobs you can accomplish using the reporting system when managing and analyzing Audit Runs across your ObservePoint account. These examples represent just a subset of what’s possible—the flexible filtering, grouping, and customization options in the reporting system support a wide range of additional use cases tailored to your team’s needs.

⭐️ EXAMPLE REPORTS

Content Security Policy Errors

This report surfaces all errors triggered by content security policies, helping teams quickly pinpoint and address potential security or compliance risks.

Browser Logs by Page Domain

View and compare browser console logs grouped by page domain. This report helps you identify which domains generate the most errors, warnings, or messages so you can quickly isolate problem areas and prioritize fixes.

Tag Related Browser Logs

Review browser console logs associated with specific tags. This report makes it easy to spot errors or warnings tied to individual tags, helping you troubleshoot broken scripts, blocked resources, or tag performance issues.

Browser Logs Volume by Tag

Analyze the number of browser console logs generated by each tag. Use this report to identify which tags are responsible for the highest volume of errors or warnings and prioritize fixes accordingly.
