Live Mode

Live Mode provides real-time monitoring of your agent’s activity, streaming conversations and executions as they happen. Toggle the Live Mode switch to instantly see new conversations, track active executions, and monitor system health with zero delay.

What is Live Mode?

Live Mode is a real-time streaming feature in the Analytics dashboard that shows current agent activity:

Instant Updates

See new conversations and executions as they occur

Zero Delay

Updates stream continuously with no refresh needed

Live Metrics

Real-time execution counts, success rates, and active runs

Current State

Monitor what’s happening right now in your agent

Live Mode Interface

What Changes When Live Mode is ON


Real-Time Conversations

Watch conversations as users interact with your agent:

Conversation List

New conversations appear automaticallyWhen Live Mode is ON:
  • New conversations stream in
  • Timestamps show “just now”, “1 minute ago”
  • No refresh button needed
  • List auto-scrolls or shows notification
Visual indicators:
  • Most recent conversations at the top
  • Fresh conversations highlighted briefly
  • Active status indicators
Watch conversations unfoldClick a conversation to see:
  • Messages appearing in real-time
  • User inputs as they’re sent
  • Agent responses as they’re generated
  • Live conversation state
Use cases:
  • Customer support monitoring
  • Quality assurance
  • Live demonstrations
  • User testing observation
Focus on specific usersEven in Live Mode, you can filter by:
  • Specific user ID
  • All users (default)
  • User groups
Example: Monitor a VIP customer’s real-time interactions or watch a specific beta tester’s experience.

Real-Time Executions

Monitor agent execution performance as it happens:

Execution Metrics (Live)

Total Executions

Running counter
  • Increments with each completion
  • Shows completed count
  • Shows failed count
  • Updates instantly

Success Rate

Live percentage
  • Recalculates automatically
  • Reflects current performance
  • Shows quality trends
  • Updates with each execution

Active Executions

Currently running
  • Shows count of active runs
  • Updates as executions start/finish
  • Indicates system load
  • Real-time capacity view

Execution List (Live)

The execution list streams new entries in real-time: Each execution shows:
FieldDescription
StatusRUNNING → COMPLETED/FAILED (updates live)
TypeAGENT_RUN, TOOL_CALL, etc.
Time”just now”, “1 minute ago” (updates continuously)
Logs ButtonClick to view detailed execution logs
Live Status Updates: Watch executions transition from RUNNING to COMPLETED in real-time, with status badges updating automatically.

Execution Logs

Click “Logs” on any execution (even active ones) to view:

Live Execution Trace

  • Steps completing in real-time
  • Current execution phase
  • Progress indicators
  • Time elapsed

Tool Call Details

  • Tools being called
  • Parameters used
  • Results returned
  • Timing information

Performance Metrics

  • Processing time (live)
  • Token usage (updating)
  • API calls count
  • Resource consumption

Error Detection

  • Errors as they occur
  • Failure points
  • Stack traces
  • Recovery attempts
Pro Tip: Keep execution logs open while monitoring to watch the detailed execution flow in real-time, perfect for debugging or understanding agent behavior.

Best Practice: Use Live Mode for awareness and immediate response, then switch to Historical Mode for deep analysis and AI-powered insights.

Performance Considerations

Streaming Efficiency

Agent Performance

No impact on agentLive Mode monitoring runs independently and doesn’t affect your agent’s response times or performance.

Browser Performance

Optimized streamingUses efficient WebSocket connections for real-time updates with minimal bandwidth and CPU usage.

Best Practices

Optimize your Live Mode experience:
  • Use a dedicated browser tab for monitoring
  • Close unnecessary tabs to free resources
  • Apply user filters to reduce data volume
  • Toggle OFF when not actively monitoring
  • Use on stable internet connection
  • Keep the tab visible for best performance

Monitoring Multiple Agents

Focus on one agentOne browser tab with Live Mode ON provides complete visibility into that agent’s activity.

Troubleshooting Live Mode

Connection issuesIf updates stop:
  1. Check internet connection
  2. Refresh the page
  3. Toggle Live Mode OFF then ON
  4. Clear browser cache
  5. Try a different browser
Browser performance impactIf browser slows down:
  • Close other tabs
  • Apply user filters to reduce data
  • Toggle Live Mode OFF when not watching
  • Use a lighter-weight browser
  • Increase available system memory
Filter or timing issuesIf expected conversations don’t appear:
  • Check user filter settings
  • Verify agent is actually active
  • Confirm Live Mode is ON
  • Check if conversations match filters
  • Refresh to resync

Frequently Asked Questions

Live Mode uses WebSocket streaming which is efficient. It has minimal impact on browser performance, but keeping multiple Live Mode tabs open may use more resources.
No, conversation analysis requires Live Mode to be OFF. AI analysis works on historical data, not streaming live data.
The interface will show a disconnection indicator and attempt to reconnect automatically. Once reconnected, streaming resumes from the current point.
Live Mode is for real-time observation. To export data, toggle Live Mode OFF, set your date range, and generate an analysis or report for export.
Multiple team members can enable Live Mode on the same agent simultaneously. Each user sees their own independent stream with their own filter settings.
No, Live Mode only shows activity from the moment you enable it forward. To view historical conversations, toggle Live Mode OFF and use the date range filter.
When Live Mode is ON, you’re viewing current activity as it happens. Date range filtering only applies to historical data when Live Mode is OFF.
Yes, simply toggle Live Mode OFF to stop streaming. The interface will show the last state before you turned it off. Toggle back ON to resume.
