When I am debugging code I did not write in Chrome DevTools I look in the Network tab for XHR requests sent. Then I try to find where in the JS code the request is made.This is usually a pain and requires a lot of text searches to find where the request was made in the code. Is there a way jump to the line of code where the XHR request was made from the Network tab?
In developers console, under network tab you have initiator column. That should do the trick.

Is it possible to hide all HTTP requests with 200 status in the Network tab of DevTools in Google Chrome?
I want to control broken or problem requests while doing some modifications in Web sites.
The DevTools Network tab looks pretty well to have such filtering in place.
You can type -status-code:200 (notice the -) to give you the requests not with status code 200. The - negates the expression. For reference documentation on the filter you can check this and also read this tutorial.
I don't see my Fetch AJAX data requests in the Chrome debugger? Where are they?
To see your Fetch Ajax requests in the Chrome Debugger, select the Other option in the Network tab:
Looks like there's an issue created with chromium. You can find the requests in the all tab or Other
.
In Chrome's developer tools, under the "Network" tab, I can see redirect paths and HTTP status code if I check "Preserve log". See image above, where you can see the domain ap.no redirect to
www.aftenposten.no and returning a status code 301.
My problem is that it doesn't work for all sites. Are there situations where Chrome will not be able to know that a redirect has happened?
One example is amazon.com, which redirects to www.amazon.com, but I cannot see the redirect in Chrome's developer tools.
Is there another way to see the redirect info in these cases where Chrome doesn't seem to pick it up?
Try these methods to get around the issue (in order of complexity):
Use an incognito window when you load the page.
Use the extension "Cache Killer" to disable caching of data.
If all else fails, clear all browsing data from Chrome.
In this instance, only clearing browsing data helped, but I regularly use Cache Killer and incognito window when I am testing my own websites.
Does anyone know of a way to display the full network resource request url instead of just the last part of it in chrome dev tools plz?
Right now it's showing me only the last part of the resource url: 1 or 2 for requests to /users/1 and /users/2. Since I have multiple resource urls ending in /:id, this get confusing very fast.
When I hover the name I get a title with the full request url. It would be nice to be able to see it without needing to hover over each separate request.
Thanks!
There is a button in view:
which enables larger request rows.
so you get this:
It seems View button is moved since latest version of Chrome
Is it currently possible to view the body of the message being sent by a COMET event using Chrome Developer tools? I'm simply looking at COMET Clock sample here by Play Framework - http://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.2.x/Samples. When I enable the developer tools and go to the event-stream object, I can only see the request and response headers. No body or message can be viewed anywhere. Is this currently even possible? Nothing shows up under WebSockets, but I'm fairly sure this example is not using WebSockets, so that makes sense.
No. It is not possible for HTTP streaming (which I think it is your case) as March 2014 (hopefully they change this in the future)
Google Devtools only shows the response when the connection is closed.
In the case of web-sockets you do see live data.
But! modern versions of Firebug can show live data streaming. So I recommend you get Firefox and install the Firebug addon.
((Ahh firebug, it used to be all we had. Poor forgotten guy. But it still has nice things Chrome lacks!))
Cheers.
You can inspect the response from any HTTP request using the DevTools Network tab. To make finding your Comet request easier, select the XHR filter button at the bottom of the Network tab panel. You may need to reload the page after opening the Network tab to refresh the list of requests. Sometime it is necessary to switch back and forth between the All and XHR filters to see new requests that have been initiated since selecting the XHR filter. Once you have identified the request item, click to select it. On the right panel choose
Response from the taps at the top
