## Introduction
|
|
|
|
The HTTP Archive File Format (HAR) is a common developer import/export format which shows web requests that browsers
|
|
make including all headers which includes cookies, forms submitted, etc.
|
|
|
|
This format allows users to open the developer tools, perform several actions, and then export a file with all of the
|
|
requests that still exist in the network tab of the developer tools. This file is stored in JSON which makes it easy to
|
|
view what information exists before sharing it. Subsequently users may import this file on another browser and see all
|
|
of these requests which makes it easier to debug certain situations without having to replicate an environment or be
|
|
present in an environment.
|
|
|
|
## Sanitization
|
|
|
|
The following section outlines some helpful information if you wish to sanitize your HAR file to share it with others.
|
|
|
|
For generic sanitization information see the [Troubleshooting Sanitization guide](troubleshooting-sanitizaiton.md).
|
|
|
|
### Security Sensitive Information
|
|
|
|
*__Important:__ this file may contain sensitive information which should be sanitized manually before sharing it
|
|
anywhere with anyone. Sensitive information can vary wildly but some of the key areas that may be sensitive when
|
|
exporting this for troubleshooting with Authelia are:*
|
|
- `Cookie` request header
|
|
- `Set-Cookie` response header
|
|
- Data sent to the following endpoints:
|
|
- `/api/firstfactor`: username / password
|
|
- `/api/*/identity/start`: the token query parameter
|
|
- `/api/secondfactor/*`: the post data
|
|
|
|
## Instructions
