Description

How to diagnose issues that involve HTTP(s) calls

  • tools
  • workflow

Browser Developer tooling

Browser applications provide developer tooling that monitors the communication between the browser and services, including the network traffic.

Performance Data

HAR (HTTP Archive) files - a JSON-formatted format used to save collected HTTP performance data. It contains information about webpages a web browser has loaded, which includes the tracked webpages, response times, and web browser version. HAR files also store metadata, such as the HAR format version and the creator of the file.
