Sort Extensions

Max | Last updated: Mar 26, 2018 08:15AM UTC

In the 'Extender' tab, under 'Extensions' it would be useful to be able to sort the extensions by 'Loaded', 'Type', or 'Name'. For example, when clicking the column title.

We've added this request to our development backlog. Unfortunately, we can't provide an ETA.

Extensions process data in the order they appear in the Extensions tab. You can move extensions up and down using the buttons. The issue with making that table sortable is that the order of extensions matters – it is the order that callbacks are invoked in so that could directly affect functionality. We have plans to improve the Burp Suite user interface in the future, so this is something we can look at introducing with those changes.

I am also interested in this. Sort and filtering would be very helpful in troubleshooting issues that have to do with extensions. In case this is added, a new column with the order of invocation of the extensions would be required to know for example that "Logger++ was extension number 11 to be loaded" since it needs to be loaded last, to capture all the transformations o nrequests by other plugins.
