In most cases you can access the Details view by clicking a check wherever it is presented. Depending on the view you are in, the exact method to access the details varies. Whenever you access check Check Details, a bookmark is placed at the top of the window. The results bookmark shows the check url / name:
...
A similar bookmark is created for Result Details. The results bookmark shows the timestamp:
...
Clicking a bookmark will take you to the appropriate Check Details or Result Details detail view.
Domains
The Domains section displays a table containing the domains accessed in the check. For each, aggregated information about traffic volumes and percentages is shown.

A Page Timeout error happens when the total load time for a single page exceeds the threshold value.
Causes
The page timeout happens after a page has started loading, but no new events are received, and no other page has started loading.
The timeout occurs if a DOM has not been received (
page timeout while waiting for DOM Complete event
).It can also occur if there is at least one response missing for one of the sent HTTP requests (
page timeout while waiting for resources
).This means that the page is reachable, but for some reason takes a very long time to load, and there is no transfer to a different page.
The default threshold value is 80 seconds.
Changing the value
The Page Timeout value can be changed from the check configuration. Changing the URL Timeout will affect the Page Timeout value. The URL Timeout value is added to 40 to generate a new Page Timeout value.

Understanding the Waterfall Section for a Browser Check Result
The following diagram explains the different metrics which are displayed in the waterfall for a Browser Check result. These metrics are pulled from the ASM API.
...
Number on Diagram | Metric Name | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | Step Nr | The Step (sometimes Page) number. E.g Step #1, Step #2, Step #n |
2 | URL number | The identifier of a URL inside of a Step. This is a counter that is unique per Step and corresponds to a URL inside of the Step |
3 | URL | The complete URL including protocol, hostname, path and query parameters |
4 | HTTP method | The HTTP method used e.g GET, POST, PUT |
5 | HTTP status code | The returned status code from the server e.g 200, 302, 500 |
6 | URL Offset ms | The time Offset in milliseconds from when the URL was initiated by the browser relative to the first URL on the Step |
7 | Blocked duration ms | The time the URL is blocked (aka Queued By Browser) inside of the browser before it is executed, e.g a DNS or Connect is fired |
8 | DNS lookup duration ms | The time it took to perform a DNS lookup/query and receive the result back |
9 | Connect duration ms | The time it took to establish a connection to the target system |
10 | Send duration ms | The time it took to send the Request away from the browser |
11 | Wait duration ms | The time it took for the target system to return the first response, which is the Response Headers |
12 | Receive duration ms | The time it took for the complete response to be returned from the target system, including headers + content |
13 | Response time ms | The total network response time for this URL. ( |
14 | Received bytes | The amount of uncompressed bytes received from the server. |
15 | Content mime type | MIME type of the response content. |
16 | Blocked url offset ms | The offset of the Blocked timing relative from when the URL was started (timestamp) |
17 | DNS lookup URL offset ms | The offset of the DNS Lookup timing relative from when the URL was started (timestamp) |
18 | Connect URL offset ms | The offset of the Connect timing relative from when the URL was started (timestamp) |
19 | Send URL offset ms | The offset of the Send timing relative from when the URL was started (timestamp) |
20 | Wait offset ms | The offset of the Wait timing relative from when the URL was started (timestamp) |
21 | Receive URL offset ms | The offset of the Receive timing relative from when the URL was started (timestamp) |
22 | Step duration ms | What the current Step duration is on this url to retrieve the final Step duration, find the MAX(Step Duration ms) among all URLs in this Step. |
The following metrics are also pulled from the ASM API for Browser checks, but they are NOT displayed on the waterfall. They are used to present more information on each URL.
Metric Name | Description |
---|---|
Started | Timestamp of when the URL was initiated. |
Elapsed ms | The complete time in milliseconds that the URL took inside of the Browser. Includes both Blocked (aka Queued By Browser) time and network processing time. |
Sent bytes | The amount of bytes sent to the server. |
Error code | Internal error code. |
Error message | Internal error message (if applicable) |
Complete | Was the URL (request + response) completed? 1=True, 0=False |
Redirect | Was the response from the server a redirect? 1=True, 0=False |
Redirect URL | If the URL was a redirect, what URL was the original URL redirected to? |
HTTP result | The result of the HTTP call |
Content from cache | Was the response content retrieved from the Client Browser Cache? 1=True, 0=False |
Content size bytes | Response Content size in bytes, excluding headers |
Request cookie count | Number of request cookies sent to the server |
Request header count | Number of request headers sent to the server |
Response cookie count | Number of response cookies received back from the server |
Response header count | Number of response headers received back from the server |
Response status line | A text with the response status |
TTFB duration ms | Time-to-first-byte, the timing that indicates how long it took to receive the first byte from the server. ( |
TTFB URL offset ms | Not applicable |
Started UTC ISO 8601 | The timestamp when the URL was initiated inside of the browser, according to ISO 8601 format |
