Call Inspector

Call Inspector is a diagnostic feature that tracks API calls as they pass through the system. It provides detailed information on how requests and responses look as they pass through different points.

You can use Call Inspector for call inspection, such as troubleshooting API calls or supporting new integrations. Enabling the call logging option on the Log Settings tab for a specified endpoint and period captures API call data.
