Axiom unlocks observability at any scale.
- Ingest with ease, store without limits: Axiom’s next-generation datastore enables ingesting petabytes of data with ultimate efficiency. Ship logs from Kubernetes, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, DigitalOcean, Nomad, and others.
- Query everything, all the time: Whether DevOps, SecOps, or EverythingOps, query all your data no matter its age. No provisioning, no moving data from cold/archive to “hot”, and no worrying about slow queries. All your data, all. the. time.
- Powerful dashboards, for continuous observability: Build dashboards to collect related queries and present information that’s quick and easy to digest for you and your team. Dashboards can be kept private or shared with others, and are the perfect way to bring together data from different sources.

This library allows you to send Web Vitals as well as structured logs from your Next.js application to Axiom.
Note Using the Pages Router? Use version
0.*, which will continue to get security patches. Here's the README for0.x.
In your Next.js project, install next-axiom:
npm install --save next-axiomIn the next.config.ts file, wrap your Next.js config in withAxiom as follows:
const { withAxiom } = require('next-axiom');
module.exports = withAxiom({
// ... your existing config
});If you are using the Vercel integration, no further configuration is required.
Otherwise create a dataset and an API token in Axiom settings, then export them as environment variables NEXT_PUBLIC_AXIOM_DATASET and NEXT_PUBLIC_AXIOM_TOKEN.
Go to app/layout.tsx and add the Web Vitals component:
import { AxiomWebVitals } from 'next-axiom';
export default function RootLayout() {
return (
<html>
...
<AxiomWebVitals />
<div>...</div>
</html>
);
}Note: WebVitals are only sent from production deployments.
Send logs to Axiom from different parts of your application. Each log function call takes a message and an optional fields object.
log.debug('Login attempt', { user: 'j_doe', status: 'success' }); // results in {"message": "Login attempt", "fields": {"user": "j_doe", "status": "success"}}
log.info('Payment completed', { userID: '123', amount: '25USD' });
log.warn('API rate limit exceeded', { endpoint: '/users/1', rateLimitRemaining: 0 });
log.error('System Error', { code: '500', message: 'Internal server error' });Wrapping your Route Handlers in withAxiom will add a logger to your
request and automatically log exceptions:
import { withAxiom, AxiomRequest } from 'next-axiom';
export const GET = withAxiom((req: AxiomRequest) => {
req.log.info('Login function called');
// You can create intermediate loggers
const log = req.log.with({ scope: 'user' });
log.info('User logged in', { userId: 42 });
return NextResponse.json({ hello: 'world' });
});For Client Components, you can add a logger to your component with useLogger:
'use client';
import { useLogger } from 'next-axiom';
export default function ClientComponent() {
const log = useLogger();
log.debug('User logged in', { userId: 42 });
return <h1>Logged in</h1>;
}For Server Components, create a logger and make sure to call flush before returning:
import { Logger } from 'next-axiom';
export default async function ServerComponent() {
const log = new Logger();
log.info('User logged in', { userId: 42 });
// ...
await log.flush();
return <h1>Logged in</h1>;
}The log level defines the lowest level of logs sent to Axiom.
The default is debug, resulting in all logs being sent.
Available levels are (from lowest to highest): debug, info, warn, error
For example, if you don't want debug logs to be sent to Axiom:
export NEXT_PUBLIC_AXIOM_LOG_LEVEL=infoYou can also disable logging completely by setting the log level to off.
next-axiom switched to support the App Router starting with version 1.0. If you are upgrading a Pages Router app with next-axiom v0.x to the App Router, you will need to make the following changes:
- Upgrade next-axiom to version 1.0.0 or higher
- Make sure that exported variables has
NEXT_PUBLIC_prefix, e.g:NEXT_PUBLIC_AXIOM_TOKEN - Use
useLoggerhook in client components instead oflogprop - For server side components, you will need to create an instance of
Loggerand flush the logs before component returns. - For web-vitals, remove
reportWebVitals()and instead add theAxiomWebVitalscomponent to your layout.
The Axiom Vercel integration sets up an environment variable called NEXT_PUBLIC_AXIOM_INGEST_ENDPOINT, which by default is only enabled for the production environment. To send logs from preview deployments, go to your site settings in Vercel and enable preview deployments for that environment variable.
You can use log.with to create an intermediate logger, for example:
const logger = userLogger().with({ userId: 42 });
logger.info('Hi'); // will ingest { ..., "message": "Hi", "fields" { "userId": 42 }}Distributed under the MIT License.
