Activity simulation method?

[Carmen Odimba]

I decided to test Beacon with a One Atlassian instance before trying it out on our company service desk. Which method would you advise in order to simulate activity on Confluence etc.?

@Carmen Odimba I would do the following:

1. To simulate page crawling
   1. Rapid searches for pages with very specific terms
   2. Opening 20-30 pages in a short period
2. Installing apps from the marketplace
3. Create API Keys
4. Create a new user and set them as admin (use a second email address you may have)

I hope this helps!

Hi @Andy Gladstone ,

thank you so much. I'll try these out and will give some feedback.

Hi @Andy Gladstone ,

I had good results with number 2, 3 and 4.

Thank you very much!

Some additional options to generate activity to create alerts would be to:

Add a new user to Beacon

Create an IP Allowlist (no need to enable it)

Create an Application Tunnel (no need to enable it)

Have an admin create a new API key

Export the Admin Audit log

Hi Jeremy,

I got results by adding a new user to Beacon as well as creating new API keys. I'll test the other options you mentioned as well, thank you very much.
