Question by Mikael B. · May 28, 2015 at 05:47 PM ·

Is it possible to obtain header and cookie information for asynchronous requests not belonging to specific user actions?

Hi all,

We are using the Atmosphere framework (https://github.com/Atmosphere/atmosphere/) for various kinds of user notifications from the server to the client browser.

Some of these clients use web sockets for transport while others rely on a streaming and polling mechanism.

Periodically, a JavaScript on the client polls the server to retrieve certain information. As these polls are asynchronous and initiated from a JavaScript, it seems they don't belong to a specific user action. So far so good.

Now to my question. Is it possible to obtain similar details for these requests as those when right-clicking a request among the user action pure paths and choosing Details?

Something similar to this is what I am looking for but for the asynchronous requests:

Kind regards,

Micke

Mikael,

If you can locate the web requests you're interested in in the web requests dashboard, you can right-click on any web request and drill-down to PurePaths.

In the lower pane of the PurePath dashboard, you'll see the same sort of method detail that you see for user actions, except starting on the server side rather than the browser.  Right-click on either the 1st or 4th line and open details – you should see a display similar to the one you show above.

(The 1st and 4th line business seems odd, but it just has to do with whether you have a web server in front of your app tier or not.)

Let us know if this helps,

-- Graeme
