Support tools

Exclusive feature only in Adobe Commerce (Learn more)

The support tools are designed to identify known issues in your system. They can be used as a resource during the development and optimization processes, and as a diagnostic tool to help our support team identify and resolve issues.

Data collector

The data collector gathers the information about your system that is needed by our Support team to troubleshoot issues with your Adobe Commerce installation. The backup that is created takes several minutes to complete, and includes both a code and database dump. The data can be exported to a CSV or Excel XML file.

Run the data collector

1. On the Admin sidebar, go to System > Support > Data Collector.

2. In the upper-right corner, click New Backup.

   It takes a few minutes to generate the backup. You can monitor the results of processing by clicking Refresh Status. When complete, the backup appears in the Data Collector grid.

3. To view a log with the backup details, do the following:

   • In the Action column, select Show Log.

   • Click Back to return to the grid.

   

Export backup data

1. In the first column, select the checkbox of the backup to be exported.

2. Use the Export menu to choose the format of the export data.

   

3. Access the file from the web browser download location and Save it.

Download backup data

After the backup is generated, you can download the copy of Code and DB data.

1. Find the needed backup entity in the grid.

2. Make sure it has a Complete status.

3. Click the entity name in Code Dump or DB Dump columns.

The download process should start automatically.

Delete backup data

1. On the Admin sidebar, go to System > Support > Data Collector.

2. Find and select the backup data to be deleted.

3. In the Action column, click Delete.

4. To confirm the action, click OK.

System reports

The system reporting tool gives you the ability take periodic full, or partial, snapshots of the system, and save them for future reference. You can compare performance settings before and after code development cycles, or changes to server settings. The system reporting tool can dramatically reduce the time spent preparing and submitting the information required by Support to begin an investigation.

From the System Reports grid, you can view and download existing reports, delete reports, and create reports.

Access system reports

On the Admin sidebar, go to System > Support > System Report.

Generate a report

1. Click New Report.

2. In the Groups list, select each set of information that you want to include in the report. By default, all groups are selected.

   

3. In the upper-right corner, click Create.

   It might take a few minutes for the report to generate, depending on the number of report types selected. When the report is ready, it appears at the top of the grid with the date and time generated.

You can find useful information about installed modules.

To view report info for each installed module:
