Generate HAR Files

HTTP Archives (HAR) capture records the requests and responses that the browser makes with the web application. Applications Manager allows you to create a HTTP(s) URL Sequence monitor with the help of the HAR file exported from the browser. All the URLs associated with the transaction are captured in the HAR file and will be recorded separately in the HTTP(s) URL Sequence monitor.

Note: Only files with .har extension will be accepted.
