Debugging Streaming API Applications

You must be able to see all of the requests and responses in order to debug Streaming API applications. Because Streaming API applications are stateful, you need to use a proxy tool to debug your application. Use a tool that can report the contents of all requests and results, such as Burp Proxy, Fiddler, or Firebug.

Using these tools, you can look at the requests, headers, body of the post, as well as the results. If you must contact us for help, be sure to copy and save these elements to assist in troubleshooting.

The first step for any debugging process is to follow the instructions in the Quick Start Using Workbench, Example: Interactive Visualforce Page, Example: Visualforce Page, or Example: Subscribe to and Replay Events Using a Java Client and verify that you can implement the samples provided. The next step is to use your debug tool to help isolate the symptoms and cause of any problems.
