Localhost & Login Challenges

What is it?

This article addresses the pain point of validating development environments that are not publicly accessible. Uiprobe's web application cannot directly access

localhost or pages behind a login, but the Chrome Extension can.

How to fix it:

* If you're trying to validate a localhost URL, a clear warning message will appear in the probe creation form.

• The solution is to use the Uiprobe Chrome Extension. It has access to the page you are viewing in your browser, allowing it to bypass these limitations and create a probe directly from your local development environment.
