Edge functions

Filter observability data by Edge Function names to understand how they are working and the bandwidth they’re using.

Observability shows the names of edge functions defined in the netlify/edge-functions directory for your project that were triggered by web requests within the selected time frame.

In your dashboard, select an edge function name to learn more about web requests that triggered that function.

The edge function name typically apperas the same as the file name in netlify/edge-functions but Observability can show a more human-readable name if a build plugin or extension specifies this.

For example:

  • If you have a Next.js project and have an edge function named in netlify/edge-functions that handles Middleware for your project, then the edge function name may be simplified to Next.js Middleware Handler in your observability chart.
