HTTP History - Filter on Edited Requests

kingthorin | Last updated: Jun 23, 2015 05:58PM UTC

Could you add a filter to the HTTP History tab allowing selection of only edited requests/responses? Also would it be possible to make the comment column in the HTTP History table editable so that you don't have to use the context menu? Or perhaps add a comment field directly to the Request/Response window you get when you've double clicked an entry in the HTTP History table.

Thanks for these requests. We're going to revisit Burp's view filters in the coming months and will look into providing a filter on edited items. You can edit comments directly within the history table - you just need to double-click the Comment cell for an item, and you can edit it there. You can also add comments during Proxy interception, and these propagate through to the history table.

There isn't currently a way to do this. We may implement this functionality in the future.

Hi, Is there a way by which we can identify that request is intercepted and edited through burp extension? I don't find any such edited flag in the IHttpRequestResponse interface. Can you please suggest a way to identify edited request through burp extension? Any sample code would really help. Thanks,
