# Chrome Extension

## Get the Dashcam Chrome Extension

The Dashcam Chrome extension enables you to capture logs, errors, and network requests from any website. Get it by clicking this link:

{% embed url="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dashcam/dkcoeknmlfnfimigfagbcjgpokhdcbbp" %}
Click here to install the Dashcam extension for Google Chrome.
{% endembed %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Dashcam is automatically set up to capture logs from localhost.  If that's enough, you can continue setup.
{% endhint %}

## Capture logs from a website

Click "Add this site" to configure a new [logs](../configure/logs "mention") pattern. Now Dashcam will capture logs and network requests from that site!

{% embed url="https://share.cleanshot.com/GTHqZGqv" %}

## Match any site with wildcards

Need to capture more than one page? Navigate to the log configuration panel in the [download-replayable](download-replayable "mention") and configure a wildcard pattern.

1. Create a new log pattern and supply a name.&#x20;
2. Select **Web** to enable log tracking of your website
3. Supply domain patterns of the websites you'd like to track. **Any `*` characters are treated as a wildcard.**&#x20;

See below for an example of a configuration that would track the Dashcam site.&#x20;

Now navigate to your site and confirm that logs are being sent to the logs dropdown!

## If logs aren't being captured

1. Check that the Chrome extension shows a "Connected" state.
2. The Chrome Extension may take up to 30 seconds to connect to the desktop app.
3. Verify that your website pattern matches the requested URL.
