How to view Sitecore content delivery showconfig.aspx

All Sitecore configuration get compiled and consolidate in showconfig.aspx file. And this config is the best way to verify default or custom configuration using

https://sc101.cm/sitecore/admin/showconfig.aspx

But recently we were facing configuration issue on CD server since there were no default way to verify showconfig.aspx on content delivery server.


Just to hack this and look showconfig.aspx for content delivery server please follow below steps:


1. Download config click here and save to your instance path wwwroot/sc101.cd

2. From Talend API Tester/Postman, put below input to get output(CD server showconfig.aspx as response) as below screenshot


sitecore-content-delivery-showconfig





Method Type: GET

URL: https://YourInstanceName/sitecorecontentdeliveryshowconfig.aspx

Header keys apikey: 464799ae52214c80b7fc81408f8efbe0




Now check your output. Hope this help.

  1. Why just don't copy existing Sitecore pages?
    sitecore/admin/login.aspx
    sitecore/admin/showconfig.aspx

    1. As per Sitecore security standard, there are permission restrictions for sitecore/admin pages that can not be open on CD sever.
      So either try above approach or can also give permission to sitecore/admin directory and try.
      But remember to revert back once done with analysis.
