Analyze errors with Olly mini

Use Olly mini in RUM Error Tracking to quickly understand errors and identify next debugging steps.

Olly mini analyzes an error and provides a structured explanation of the likely cause, along with investigation guidance.

What you can do​

With Olly mini, you can:

  • Understand why an error likely occurred
  • Review suggested debugging steps
  • Identify recommended next actions

Olly mini helps you move from stack trace to investigation faster.

Where Olly mini appears​

Olly mini is available in the error template drilldown view in Error Tracking, positioned above the error graph.

It appears as a collapsed bar reading Olly Mini has analyzed the error and supporting metrics. Here's what we found:

Select the chevron on the bar to expand the analysis panel.

Olly mini analyzes a single error occurrence from the selected error template.

Analyze an error​

  1. Go to Error Tracking.
  2. Select an error template.
  3. In the drilldown view, expand the Olly mini bar above the error graph.
  4. Review the analysis in the Olly mini panel.

The analysis is generated using the error stack trace, error message, and available runtime context.

How Olly mini analyzes crashes​

To produce the analysis, Olly mini evaluates:

  • Stack trace
  • Error message
  • Crash template identifiers
  • Runtime metadata such as browser, OS, version, URL, and release (when available)

Understand the analysis results​

When expanded, Olly mini provides a structured explanation of the error, including the likely cause, debugging steps, and recommended next actions.

Olly mini presents results in up to three sections. The panel scrolls, so later sections are below the visible area when it opens.

Summary / Cause: Explains the most likely reason for the error based on the stack trace and runtime context.

Debugging Options: Suggests investigation steps to help confirm the root cause.

Actionable Next Steps: Provides recommended actions or mitigations to resolve the issue.

Below them, the panel footer reads Generated by Olly mini. Review before taking action.

Scope and limitations​

Olly mini error analysis:

  • Does not perform full incident root cause analysis
  • Does not analyze recurring patterns across multiple crashes
  • Provides probabilistic guidance
  • Does not guarantee correctness

Always verify analysis results using your code and logs.
