Generating an HAR file

Sometimes, when you encounter complex issues with Tender, such as troubles with SSO, we need some information to help you debug it. This article explains how to generate an HAR file, which contains a record of a browsing session. You will need the Chrome browser.

Opening the inspector

Chrome comes bundled with Developer Tools. You can open this special panel by right clicking anywhere on the page, and then choosing Inspect Element:
