The Adobe Console Client communicates with the Adobe Application Server with SOAP calls only. As the SOAP protocol relies on HTTP/HTTPS, we’re able to intercept requests & responses via Fiddler.

🔍💻💡

Installation

  • Get Fiddler from https://www.telerik.com/download/fiddler
  • Say your instance URL is https://mkt-stage1.campaign.adobe.com
  • Create a new Connection named Fiddler with the instance URL set to https://myinstance
  • Open Fiddler, got to Rule > Customize Rules, it will open the Fiddler Script Editor
  • Look for static function OnBeforeRequest(oSession: Session){
  • Add the following code, just after the opening curly bracket {: 
    static function OnBeforeRequest(oSession: Session){
if (oSession.HostnameIs("MYINSTANCE")) {
  oSession.host = "mkt-stage1.campaign.adobe.com:443"; // use 80 for HTTP, 443 for HTTPS or 8080 for Tomcat
}
// rest of the code
  • Enable HTTPS in Fiddler in Tools > Fiddler Options > HTTPS > Decrypt HTTPS

Usage

Browse to different folders, workflows or schemas from your console, and check Fiddler:
