Webservice performance is traced via SICF

select the webservice

then via the menu edit ( debug/ trace/ runtime anlysis)

se30 to analyze the file.

If I wanted to monitor a specific web service, apart from dragging HTTP requests out of STAD which would I imagine be a nightmare.... I would turn on logging in the ICM. This can even be filtered to show only the response time for each access to your ICF service. It can also give return codes, cookies and a whole lot more..... I certainly always am turning it on in web dispatchers.

Hi Benjamin,

Web Service has a program behind and for this reason usually it depends about how it was designed. By other hand, itu2019s important to monitor the server that will host Web Services.

In SAP landscape:

You can go to: http://<servername>:<port>/nwa -> Analysis -> Performance -> Application Profiler -> Select your Web Services -> Start Profiling
