  5. After selecting the Monitor Type, specify the required details that are to be entered with respect to the monitor type chosen.
    • If the selected monitor type is HTTP(s) URLs, then HTTP(s) URL monitor form will be displayed along with the selected monitors data (including client certificate file).
    • If the selected monitor is URL-based like Webpage Analyzer, then a form with the corresponding monitor's URL address will be displayed.
    • If the selected monitor is API-based like ElasticSearch or Apache Solr, the corresponding form will be displayed for the selected monitor type along with the monitor's hostname, port and the list of APIs used for data collection (if any). If the particular monitor type allows customizable APIs, then an option to add custom APIs will be given.

      Note: A maximum number of 15 custom APIs can only be executed in the URL Debug tool.

  6. Based on the monitor selected, further options will be displayed. After entering all the required details, click Execute.

On clicking Execute, data collection will occur based on the specified data and the result page will be displayed. This page comprises of details such as,

  • Metric name / URL address
  • Connectivity status
  • Response code
  • Response time (in milliseconds)
  • Webpage content and its size (in bytes)
  • Detailed response time split up

You can also view and copy the webpage contents (in HTML form) by clicking over the respective icons.

Additionally, you can download the complete debug report in the form of PDF using the Export option. Also, you can make use of the Send to support option to send the report to the support via mail, which comprises of the mail subject, request details and the PDF Report of the collected response.
