When troubleshooting complex issues, it is sometimes necessary for our Support Specialists to obtain additional information about the network requests that are generated in your browser while an issue occurs. A Support Specialist may request that while that issue is occurring you record a HAR file which is a log of network requests. They'll use the HAR file for further analysis.
Browsers:
To Generate the HAR File in Chrome
- Open Google Chrome and go to the page where the issue is occurring.
- From the Chrome menu bar select More Tools > Developer Tools.
- From the panel that opens at the bottom of your screen, select the Network tab.
- Look for a round Record button (
) in the upper left corner of the Network tab, and make sure it is red. If it is grey, click it once to start recording.
- Check the box next to Preserve log
- Click the Clear button (
) to clear out any existing logs from the Network tab.
- Now try to reproduce the issue that you were experiencing before, while the network requests are being recorded.
- Once you have reproduced the issue, right-click anywhere on the grid of network requests, select Save as HAR with Content, and save the file to your computer.
- Upload your HAR file to your ticket or attach it to your email so that we may analyze it.
