UI Element List
The following tables describe the UI elements that are available on the feature page and in the Actions pane.
Feature Page Elements
Element Name | Description |
---|---|
Path |
Displays the URL traced by a tracing rule for failed requests. The URL can contain, at most, one wildcard and must be local to the directory where the failed request definition is set. For example, the wildcard patterns *.aspx, and ind* will all match the URL www.contoso.com/index.aspx. |
Associated Providers |
