Features & Capabilities

API Network Recorder is a developer tool for capturing, inspecting, filtering, and exporting API/network traffic directly from Firefox.

Use it to debug API integrations, inspect request and response data, document observed endpoints, and generate exportable API references from real browser traffic.

Features:

Capture API-like network requests from web pages.
Inspect request URLs, HTTP methods, status codes, request headers, request bodies, response headers, and response metadata.
Filter captured records by search text, HTTP method, status group, source, host, and API-only mode.
Group captured traffic by endpoint.
Export captured records as JSON.
Export grouped endpoints as Markdown documentation.
Export an OpenAPI draft based on observed traffic.
Pause and continue live updates in the inspector.
Store captured records locally in the browser.

Firefox uses silent network capture through webRequest. Response bodies may be unavailable when the browser does not expose them through standard extension APIs.

Captured data is stored locally in the browser and is not uploaded to an external server by this extension.

Is API Network Recorder Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

API Network Recorder requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

API Network Recorder is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
