Gather console logs on Firefox

AI-generated summary

Genesys Cloud provides browser console and network logging capabilities to enable product support teams to diagnose issues by monitoring actions and events on an agent's computer. To gather console logs in Firefox, users must access Web Developer Tools via the menu, select the Console tab, enable relevant filter categories (particularly XHR for XMLHttpRequests), activate Persist Logs and Show Timestamps options, reproduce the issue, right-click to save all messages to file, allow the save operation to complete fully, and upload the resulting file to a support ticket through the Product Support Communications Portal. Console logs combined with cloud-side logging provide comprehensive visibility into system behavior, facilitating more effective troubleshooting. The procedure is identical across Mac and Windows platforms. Users should exercise caution when handling saved log files immediately after creation, as premature relocation or copying may corrupt the data; waiting for the complete data transfer before moving or uploading files is essential.

When problems occur, console and network logs provide visibility into the actions and events on an agent’s computer. Troubleshooting issues without complete information can be difficult. However, when combined with Cloud-side logging, browser logs (console logs and network logs) provide Product Support with a full picture of the issue.
