Watch stock updates

Read the stream

Schemo displays events as they arrive from a successful text/event-stream response. The log shows event names, IDs, and data when the server sends them. Search the log by event or value. Select Stop when you finish.

A stream can remain open between events. If the connection closes immediately, check the HTTP status and response content type. If it stays open with an empty log, confirm that the endpoint has an event to send and that any intermediary flushes event data.

Identify an event

For this event, Schemo shows the name status, ID 42, and its JSON payload in the log.

event: status
id: 42
data: {"state":"ready"}

An endpoint can send multiple event types on one connection. Use the event names and IDs to locate the update you are debugging.
