Highlight requests containing a match

Wolfie | Last updated: Feb 17, 2022 06:33AM UTC

Hello! Would love to have a function within Proxy > HTTP History where if i look for a certain word, the requests within the HTTP history will become highlighted with my chosen colour. Example: You want to look for a keyword such as "API_KEY". I still want to see all the requests, even the ones not containing API_KEY. But if it were to show up within the requests, the request should be highlighted with a colour. Keep in mind, the color highlighting should be separate from the "Filter by search term" functionality.

Hi Niko, Just to clarify, you are looking for something more than the main Burp search functionality (available via the Burp -> Search menu option) which allows you to look for a particular search term within the requests/responses in the Proxy history (any matches are displayed in the separate search window)?
