    Based on the knowledge sources provided, Mixpanel's Session Replay feature is not available for server-side tracking. Session Replay is designed to capture and replay data on how users interact with your application on the client-side, specifically for web applications.According to the Mixpanel SDKs: Javascript documentation, Session Replay requires the Mixpanel JavaScript SDK to be installed and enabled on the client-side. The documentation states:"To use this feature, you must be on at least version 2.50.0 of our JavaScript SDK."Additionally, the implementation details provided in the documentation are specific to client-side JavaScript, such as setting options during SDK initialization:LBKSmixpanel.init( "<YOUR_PROJECT_TOKEN> ", { record_sessions_percent: 1 //records 1% of all sessions } )LBKSThere is no mention of server-side implementation for Session Replay in the provided knowledge sources. The feature is designed to capture user interactions that occur on the client-side, which cannot be fully replicated through server-side tracking alone.If you're interested in server-side tracking with Mixpanel, they do offer server-side SDKs for various languages, but these are separate from the Session Replay feature. For more information on server-side tracking options, you may want to refer to Mixpanel's server-side SDK documentation.
