Number of APIs: 30


1. Connectivity problems - Run the Connectivity problems scenario

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/connectivity-problems

Launches an asynchronous request to simultaneously run Launch a GREP request, Request content with cURL, and Test network connectivity with MTR operations for a URL. It may help you diagnose issues with slow download and high response time. Successful operations return fetched GREP, cURL, and MTR data.



2. Connectivity problems - Get the Connectivity problems scenario response

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/connectivity-problems/requests/:requestId

Returns the status of the asynchronous Run the connectivity problems scenario request. Operations with the SUCCESS status include also fetched GREP, cURL, and MTR data.



3. Content problems - Run the Content problems scenario

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/content-problems

Launches an asynchronous request to simultaneously run Launch a GREP request and Request content with cURL operations for a URL. It may help you diagnose issues with slow download and high response time. Successful operations return fetched GREP and cURL data.



4. Content problems - Get the Content problems scenario response

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/content-problems/requests/:requestId

Returns the status of the asynchronous Run the content problems scenario request. Operations with the SUCCESS status include fetched GREP and cURL data.



5. CURL - Request content with cURL

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/curl

Requests content using the curl command to provide the raw HTML for a URL, including request headers. You can run this operation for a specific location, an edge server IP, or a Site Shield map. If you want to get the data for a location, you need to run the List available edge server locations operation first to get edgeLocationId. And if you want to run this operation for an IP, you may need to verify an IP to check if it belongs to an edge server. If you provide neither a location nor an edge server IP, then Edge Diagnostics runs the operation using a random edge server IP.



6. ESI debugger - Get an ESI debugging report

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/esi-debugger-api/v1/debug

This operation provides a debugging report on the ESI code of your source page and all pages that the source page references.



7. DIG - Get domain details with dig

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/dig

Uses the dig command to provide DNS details for the location of an edge server, a hostname or a domain name, or a GTM hostname. The results may help you diagnose issues with domain name resolutions. You can run this operation either for a specific location or an edge IP. If you want to get the data for a location, you need to run the List available edge server locations operation first to get edgeLocationId. To run this operation for an IP, you may need to verify an IP, if it belongs to an edge server. And to run this operation for a GTM hostname, you need to run the List GTM properties operation first. If you don't provide neither a location ID nor an edge server IP, then Edge Diagnostics runs the operation using a random edge server IP.



8. Edge server locations - List available edge server locations

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/edge-locations

Lists active edge server locations you can use to run Request content with cURL, Get domain details with dig, Test network connectivity with MTR, Run the URL health check, Run the connectivity problems scenario, and Run the content problems scenario operations. To get a subset of edge servers supporting metadata tracer, run the List available edge server locations for metadata tracing operation.



9. Error translator - Translate error string

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/error-translator

Launches an asynchronous request to fetch summary and logs for an error with a specific reference code. You can also translate any Global Request Number (GRN) generated by the Property Manager's Global Request Number behavior. You can get the error logs from the last 6 or 24 hours depending on the server and traffic conditions. For operations in progress, the returned object contains retryAfter, requestId, and link. In this case, wait for the duration of the retryAfter interval, then either use the requestId to run the Get a translate error string response operation, or simply GET the link.



10. Error translator - Get a translate error string response

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/error-translator/requests/:requestId

Returns the status of the asynchronous Translate error string request. For operations with the SUCCESS status, the response includes details about the error. For operations in progress, the returned object contains retryAfter, requestId, and link. In this case, wait for the duration of the retryAfter interval, then run this operation again or simply GET the link.



11. Error statistics - Get error statistics

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/estats

Returns HTTP status codes distribution statistics from delivering a URL or CP code based on the nine-second traffic sample from the last two minutes. You can filter the results by delivery and errorType. The delivery is the delivery type of your resource, either ENHANCED_TLS or STANDARD_TLS. The STANDARD_TLS value returns data for the HTTP traffic with Standard TLS hostname, whereas ENHANCED_TLS for the HTTPS traffic with Enhanced TLS hostname. Without this filter, Edge Diagnostics checks on its own the type of delivery used by your resource and returns data for it. If your resource uses both delivery types, then Edge Diagnostics returns data for the type which got all data collected faster. If you choose the delivery type not used by your resource, then the results are empty. If you want to add this filter, you can run the Get an edge hostname operation in Edge Hostnames API to confirm the delivery type of your resource. It's the securityType value. The errorType filter is for the traffic's direction. The EDGE_ERRORS value returns data for the traffic between a customer and an edge server and ORIGIN_ERRORS between the edge server and the origin. Without this filter, Edge Diagnostics returns data for both directions.



12. GREP - Launch a GREP request

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/grep

Launches an asynchronous request to fetch logs for an edge server IP address using the grep command. To verify if an IP belongs to an edge server, run the Verify an IP operation first. If you known the exact values to filter the logs by and you want to get the data directly, run the synchronous Get specific logs operation.



13. GREP - Get specific logs

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/grep?edgeIp={{edgeIp}}&cpCode={{cpCode}}

Using the grep command, returns logs that match the query parameters. This operation gets the data directly. If you don't have detailed information about the logs or you want to avoid latency, run the Launch a GREP request operation. If you provide request parameters for which Edge Diagnostics doesn't find logs, you get the validation error.



14. GREP - Check a GREP request status

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/grep/requests/:requestId

Returns the status of the asynchronous Launch a GREP request request. Operations with the SUCCESS status include also the grep logs.



15. GTM properties - List GTM properties

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/gtm/gtm-properties

Lists GTM properties you have access to. You can use the returned hostname values to run Test network connectivity with MTR and Get domain details with dig operations for a GTM hostname. Note, that the Test network connectivity with MTR operation requires also hostname's test and target IP values, that you can get with the List test and target IPs for a GTM hostname operation.



16. GTM properties - List test and target IPs for a GTM hostname

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/gtm/:property/:domain/gtm-property-ips

Lists test and target IPs for a GTM property. You can use the returned data to run the Test network connectivity with MTR operation for a GTM hostname. To get the data necessary for this request, run the List GTM properties operation first.



17. IPA hostnames - List IP acceleration hostnames

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/ipa/hostnames

Lists IP acceleration (IPA) hostnames you have access to and can generate a diagnostic link to collect diagnostic data.



18. IP network location - Locate an IP network

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/locate-ip

Returns geolocation data of an IP's network. You can enter up to 10 IPs.



19. Metadata Tracer - Launch a metadata tracing request

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/metadata-tracer

Launches an asynchronous request to trace metadata for a URL configured in Property Manager. The metadata tracing works for the current property version active either on staging or production. To run the operation for a location, run the List available locations for metadata tracing operation first to get available values. If you don't provide a location ID or an edge server IP, then Edge Diagnostics runs the operation using a random location.



20. Metadata Tracer - List available edge server locations for metadata tracing

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/metadata-tracer/locations

Lists active locations you can use to run the Launch a metadata tracing request operation together with information about supported HTTP methods. The operation responds with a subset of edge servers returned by the List available edge server locations operation.



21. Metadata Tracer - Check a metadata tracing request status

GET https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/metadata-tracer/requests/:requestId

Returns the status of the asynchronous Launch a Metadata Tracer request operation. For operations with the SUCCESS status, the response includes the metadata details. For requests with the Accept: text/html request header, results are in static HTML format. To learn more about the results, check How to read the results.



22. MTR - Test network connectivity with MTR

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/mtr

Uses MTR to provide information about packet loss and latency between an edge server IP, location, or Site Shield map and a remote destination. To run this operation for an IP, you may need to verify an IP if it belongs to an edge server. To run this operation for a GTM hostname, run List GTM properties and List test and target IPs for a GTM hostname operations first to get the test and target IPs for the hostname.



23. ARL translator - Translate an Akamaized URL

POST https://{{host}}/edge-diagnostics/v1/translated-url

Provides basic information about a specific hostname or domain name, such as typecode, origin server, CP code, serial number, and TTL. A URL becomes an Akamaized URL (ARL) once it's on an edge server.
