  • 1.  Track a request path in Gateway

    Posted Jan 29, 2018 12:18 PM

    Team,

     

    Is there any way to track the Mobile request path from start to end in Gateway. Dashboards in gateway are of not much help.

     

    Thanks

    If your asking if there is a global way to traverse every call that each OTK policy goes to another there isnt really. If you are looking for a good way to debug it (I am assuming thats why you ask). The best way would likely be as on the below link from Saschas blog,

    Tip of the week: debugging policy 

     

    If the ultimate goal is something other then for debug purposes possibly you can elaborate on what you are trying to accomplish.

    Thanks..

    Hi Charles,

     

    Thanks for the quick response. My reason behind ask is, i want to add custom logging for all the policies that are part of the request. For which I need to know how it works end to end so to add the additional logging in all the respective policies.

    To my knowledge it doesn't easily exist. I had opened an internal feature which was to easily add debug. The ssg_x_.logs do tend to give an indication. But as far as an out of the box or easy end to end its not really documented or available to my knowledge.

    Ok. Thanks for the clarification Charles.  Could you please give me some insight on the internal feature you are referring to ?
