   We’ve identified an issue affecting Session Replay for some web projects. Since October 28, 2026, some projects may be capturing more sessions than their configured sample rate or targeting conditions allow, which can increase Session Replay usage. Our engineering team has identified the cause and is working on a fix. We’ll provide an update as soon as possible, and we’re reviewing the impact on Session Replay usage for affected customers.
