locations-api: # Viewing the Sidekiq UI for Locations API

Viewing the Sidekiq UI for Locations API

We have access to the Sidekiq UI but because Locations API doesn't have a frontend we have to use port forwarding to see it in our live environments.

You'll need to have access to our EKS clusters before you can follow these instructions. There's documentation here on how to do that. This means that you'll need full production access before you can view the Sidekiq UI. Note that port-forwarding in production and staging requires fulladmin access, so you'll need to set up Temporary Production and Staging admin access

To view the UI run:

kubectl -n apps port-forward deployment/locations-api 8080:8080

and then navigate to localhost:8080/sidekiq
