In the earliest version of Cloud Middleman we provided a simple chronological view of http(s) traffic. While this worked well enough, our users wanted something cleaner and easier to navigate. We’re excited to release an updated UI that we think you’ll really enjoy. We’ve maintained the chronological view but added in (as default) a new tree view that allows you to more easily inspect the traffic you’re interested in. Have a look below:

Tree view makes it much easier to navigate relevant domains and inspect the full requests / responses. We’ve even got tabs for parameters, JSON, and cURL:

Query Parameters

cURL

You’ll notice navigating the request / responses in the chronological view has been simplified into tabs instead of collapsing views:

If you’ve been using a particular device for multiple sessions on Cloud Middleman, you’ll notice a new dropdown that makes it easier to find old sessions organized by timestamp:

Realtime Everything!

On top of a slick new UI, we’ve made everything realtime. Now you’ll receive realtime notifications when a new device connects / disconnects to CM, when a new device is shared with you, and when a new shared device begins to log traffic.

We hope you’ll like this new design and as always, we welcome your comments and feedback. We’re working on some pretty cool advanced features so stay tuned.
