Aborting a Session

To stop recording the current session and prevent it from being uploaded, call uxc.abort(). Use it when a user withdraws consent, for internal or test traffic, or on pages you never want recorded.

Aborting the Current Session

uxc.abort()

Stops recording and closes the connection. The session is not uploaded, does not appear in your UXCam dashboard, and does not count towards your session quota. The method takes no parameters.

uxc.abort();

//Example: don't record internal pages
// (wait for 'load' so the SDK is ready)
window.addEventListener('load', () => {
  if (window.location.pathname.startsWith('/admin')) {
    uxc.abort();
  }
});

What to expect

• Recording does not restart on its own. After uxc.abort(), further clicks, scrolls or navigation within the same page load are not recorded.
• The next full page load (a refresh, or opening the site again) starts a new session as usual. If a user should stay unrecorded, call uxc.abort() again on each page load.
• Single-page apps navigate without a page load, so the abort lasts until the user reloads.
