How to generate a network log file?

If you bring a technical issue to our Support team, they can sometimes require you to record a network log file in your browser or from the Krisp desktop application and share it with us for further troubleshooting. The file gives additional information about the network requests that are generated in your browser or Krisp desktop application while an issue occurs.

  Important

Network log files may contain sensitive data, including the content of the pages you downloaded while recording, your cookies, all the information that you submitted while recording (personal details, passwords, credit card numbers, etc.). To avoid accidentally sharing the information, make sure to follow our instructions and not perform any actions other than those required for reproducing the faced problem.
