Intro

As a Field Triage Engineer and Developer responsible for debugging field issues, having the ability to collect diagnostic/ debug data from the device without requiring SSH access would be beneficial. The Triage Engineer can use WebPA communication to initiate the data reporting process and retrieve the report from the S3 log service
