+
+Before sending the request, you can configure the following: 
+- **Inputs**: Provide values for any required query parameters, path variables, or request body fields.
+- **Authentication**: Select an authentication method if required by the endpoint.
+- **Location**: Choose where the request should be sent from:
+    - Public Location (default)
+    - Private Location, for APIs accessible only within your private network. These must be configured using [Synthetics Private Locations][2]. Any Private Locations you've already set up appear automatically in the dropdown.
+
 **Note**: Software Catalog contains HTTP endpoints that are automatically discovered by APM. The concept of endpoints correspond to [APM resources][1] for an APM web service.
