Checking For Connectivity from the Container to the BlazeMeter API Server - Docker Installation

The following article explains how to verify if there is connectivity between the Docker container in which BlazeMeter's on-premise agent is installed to BlazeMeter's API endpoint.

To check for connectivity to the BlazeMeter API servers from inside a container using the following command:

$ sudo docker run -it taurus-cloud:latest curl https://a.blazemeter.com/api/v4/tests

It should result in a JSON output:

{
  "error": {
    "code": 401,
    "message": "Unauthorized"
  },
  "api_version": 2,
  "result": null
}

Once you have verified the above, use the following commands to remove the container that is created by the above command:

$ sudo docker ps -a (Get the container ID for the taurus-cloud:latest container)

$ sudo docker rm <Container ID> (Removes the container)
