Generate a HAR file for troubleshooting

If you're having trouble accessing Woopra or running reports, we may require you to generate a HAR file to help us troubleshoot networking issues.

📘

A HAR (HTTP Archive) file contains information such as cookie data and downloaded web pages captured during a recording session. Any individual with access to the HAR file can potentially view the data transmitted during the recording, which might include personal or sensitive information. If you wish to remove this data, Cloudflare has introduced a HAR sanitizer tool that can remove any sensitive data from the HAR file.
