Docs / Getting Started / For your Backend / Cloudflare Worker Backend

Cloudflare Worker Backend

Highlight ships @highlight-run/cloudflare which tracks errors and forwards logs from your Cloudflare Workers.

Getting Started

This backend SDK requires one of our Client SDKs to be installed, so please follow the instructions there if you have not done so.

For server-side linking to Highlight sessions, your client-side call to H.init should include the tracingOrigins setting. See H.init() for more details.

H.init('<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>', { ... tracingOrigins: true, ... });
Copy
Adding Highlight to your Cloudflare Worker Backend

First, import the package

# with npm npm install @highlight-run/cloudflare # with yarn yarn add @highlight-run/cloudflare
Copy
Handle errors

When your app throws a backend error, you can log that error to Highlight by calling H.consumeError(). Your cloudflare worker code would look something like this:

import { H } from '@highlight-run/cloudflare' async function doRequest() { return new Response("hello!") } export default { async fetch(request: Request, env: {}, ctx: ExecutionContext) { const hEnv = { HIGHLIGHT_PROJECT_ID: 'YOUR_PROJECT_ID' } try { const response = await doRequest() H.sendResponse(request, hEnv, ctx, response) return response } catch (e: any) { H.consumeError(request, hEnv, ctx, e) throw e } }, }
Copy

All Highlight data submission uses waitUntil to make sure that we have no impact on request handling performance.

Verify

To view and resolve the recorded error, log into app.highlight.io/errors and open your project. Clicking on the error's title will open a page where you can see detailed information and mark it as resolved. You can also view frontend sessions where the error was thrown, and see the individual request which caused the error.

For more details, check out the SDK docs.
