I have the following issue: It doesn't record network payloads, response and others like headers etc...

Steps to reproduce:

• use axios for requests
• activate sentry session replay
• make some request and see the log on the website

Actual result:

• it shows the screen recording, and the network requests
• but it doesn't show the request and response payloads

Expected result:

• it shows the screen recording, and the network requests
• when i click on one request, see the request, response and headers payload

Looks like web have it, I don't get why RN doesn't => https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-javascript/issues/7103

Thank you for the message @jackstudd.

This is correct, currently the RN Replay Implementation does not record the request and response body.

I'll mark this as a feature requests and we will post updates here.

Just curious how the Sentry team prioritizes GH issues -- Is this on y'alls radar as a to-do item, or waiting for more thumbs ups/community feedback?

@shmkane we try to do what makes sense, which I know is not a helpful answer :) SR has been moved out of beta recently, so we're focusing on stability and performance now. we definitely keep close watch and see when feature requests such as this one gets upvotes, so please continue using these 👍 buttons

@krystofwoldrich any update on when we can expect this? Inspecting network request/response bodies is pretty vital for debugging issues in production 🤞🏽

@george-g-y-b thanks for your interest - we are currently focusing on other improvements to SR, but given the interest in this feature, we prioritize it among the first new functionalities we're going to add. Please follow the updates in this GH issue.
