HttpWatch

Works with HttpWatch software (version 13 - 15) on Windows to show HTTP/HTTPS traffic generated by the Edge browser

HttpWatch is an Edge browser extension designed to work in tandem with the HttpWatch software (version 13 or later) on Windows. It provides detailed HTTP and HTTPS traffic analysis generated by Edge, offering advanced web debugging features beyond the built-in DevTools network panel.

Key features include multi-page debugging with request grouping, automatic logging of network traffic per Edge tab, performance and security warnings, powerful find and filter capabilities, password masking in POST data, page-level statistics summaries, request comment annotations, and direct emailing of captured traffic files. This extension enhances developer productivity by giving in-depth insights into HTTP headers, cookies, status codes, query strings, POST data, content types, and timing information. Note that this extension requires the separate HttpWatch software installation from https://www.httpwatch.com and is not a standalone tool.
