This topic is part of the manual Designer User's Guide for version Current of Designer.

This page describes how to generate network logs from different types of browsers. If you are experiencing issues with Designer, this information can be used to assist with troubleshooting.

Related documentation:

How to check your Designer version

Your Designer version is displayed in the top-right corner of the interface:

How to capture a network log

Most browsers allow you to capture an HTTP Archive (HAR) file, which contains details about how a particular web page has been handled by the browser. If you are asked to provide a HAR file to Genesys, follow the steps for your browser.

Tip
For best results, Genesys recommends that you generate the HAR file while using your browser's private (or incognito) browsing mode.

How to generate a HAR file using Chrome

Launch a new incognito window (you can do this from the Chrome settings menu, which appears as 3 vertical dots in the top right-side corner of the browser screen) and go to the Designer page where you are experiencing the issue.

Next, from the Chrome settings menu, go to More tools > Developer tools to launch the developer tools console.

In the developer tools console, go to the Network tab and select Preserve log. Once you click the box, the red circle on the left indicates that the network activity is now being captured. (If the circle is still black, you can click it to toggle capturing on.)

While the capture is running, refresh the page and try to reproduce the issue you are having with the Designer page. When you are finished, you can stop the capture by deselecting the Preserve log box, or by clicking the red circle.

Click the Export HAR button to download the file to your computer.

How to generate a HAR file using Firefox

Open a new Private window (you can do this from the Firefox settings menu, which appears as 3 vertical lines in the top right-side corner of the browser screen) and go to the Designer page where you are experiencing the issue.

Next, from the Firefox settings menu, click Web Developer and select Network to launch the developer console.
