View Requests From a Live Debugging Session

Introduction

Live Debugging is performed either in Staging environment or in the Production environment.

Procedure

To perform Live Debugging on Ingest Labs:

Step 1: Select Live Debugging on the left navigation panel.

Step 2: There are two environments present:

  • Production – When elements are pushed to the production environment, you can check the live details in the production environment.

  • Staging – When elements are pushed to the staging environment, you can check the live details in the staging environment.

For this demonstration we have taken example of Production, click Production.

Step 3: Click Start Debugging on the top right corner of the screen.

Step 4: Enter the Debug ID in the Debug ID field or click Start to start the debugging session. You need to enter a Debug ID to see events exclusively from your session on the website.

The following screen appears:

Step Result: The live debugging details appear on the screen. Now, you can view all the events firing in real time, only for your session on the website, for debugging purposes.

Note 1: The Debug ID is unique and is meant to streamline traffic tracking. Without a debug ID, you will be bombarded with general traffic data. Using a debug ID will help to streamline data and view the traffic for a particular session. A debug ID is not mandatory for Staging. A Debug ID is required for Production due to the huge network traffic.

Note 2: To retrieve the Debug ID, follow the procedure Retrieve the DebugID Using Console.
