🚨 Launching ZeroTrace: The logs dashboard for Bubble apps

[Zeroic]

Hi everyone!

I have been building on Bubble for the last ~6 years and recently started following quite a few topics on the Forum.

I saw quite a few devs here, and in the community in general, complain about the current state of logs and observability for their Bubble apps.

This makes it difficult to track our WU usage in logs and causes discrepancies between logs and WU charts, which adds to confusion and frustration with the WU pricing altogether.

@Eugene_West

It’s really annoying that there’s no way to see more details.

I need to debug the backend workflow, and the only way that I came up with is to see the server logs.
every time I click on the link “zoom in to this workflow”, the screen gets loaded and then nothing shows up.

Is there any other way to see how the backend workflow is working on each step?
or how do I solve this server log issue?

So I built ZeroTrace along with @ankur1 - the observability platform that each live Bubble app should have.

What it does:

• Overview
  Metrics like total logs, event/action runs, errors, WUs, and users over a chosen time range with trend charts so you can spot changes quickly.

• Logs
  Searchable, filterable log list with accurate and understandable workflow traces. Click a log to see the full trace (which steps ran before/after) and raw log details. Export to CSV if you need it for your SOC2 / ISO / compliance audits. Suggested by @mghatiya

Server logs are heavily under designed currently with lot of limitations on functionalities. And since there are so many limitations, at the least they should give us an ability to download the logs in excel/text so that we can do our own manual analysis of various kinds.

• Monitor
  A customizable dashboard that allows you to track:
  • Health checks: Most recurring errors and workflows
  • Event performance: Slowest and fastest workflows by duration
  • User activity: Who’s active, where, and recent activity
  • WU usage: Workflow Unit consumption by user and workflows, so you can keep an eye on usage.

• Alerts (my FAVOURITE feature btw)
  Define rules (e.g. “error occurs”, “error rate exceeds X%”, “duration exceeds X ms”, “WU exceeds X”) and get notified so you can react before users report issues.

Who is it for:
Any dev or org running serious and critical Bubble apps knows how important observability is for them. And that how Bubble’s log tab isn’t the solution AT ALL.

@sridharan.s

Have spent hours and hours trying to troubleshoot a bug which would be 100 times easier to figure out with this information.

This platform becomes a no-brainer for those who want to:

• see what’s actually running and where errors happen
• trace paths and figure out how workflows are executing
• know their WU usage in detail
• be informed immediately when any third-party services are down, or when things are just getting slow!

Adding your app to ZeroTrace
I’ll be keeping this free for the next few months for anyone who wants to try it and share feedback. It’s invite-only for now – we’re not posting a public sign-up link.

If you’d like an invite, feel free to comment below or DM me.

In case you have sent me a text here or on any other social media platform, we will be in touch to onboard you asap.

I’d love to hear what you’d want next – better metrics, alert types, filters, AI (which is coming soon ) or anything else.

I would love access

Great job @Zeroic !

Looks like a very valuable tool we definitely would want to try it out.

[randomanon]

Sickening that Bubble doesn’t have this built in.

[petar]

This looks interesting! I would like to try it out

[juancamilovasquezard]

This looks amazing! I would want to try it out if possible.

Thanks!

True! I thought the Flusk acquisition would have allowed them to integrate this natively, but it doesn’t look like that’s their focus atm.
