Debugging JavaScript Actions
You can debug JavaScript files from the Sentinel Control Center with the help of the JavaScript
debugger. The JavaScript debugger is a local debugger that executes scripts with respect to the
machine on which the Sentinel Control Center is running. The JavaScript debugger instantiates a
debug session from the Data Access Service (DAS) machine.
A JavaScript Correlation action can only be debugged after it is associated with a fired correlation
rule. Therefore, a prerequisite to debugging is to create a correlation rule that is guaranteed to fire,
then associate the JavaScript correlation action with that rule.
The debugger has the following controls:
