About API Lens
API Lens is a lightweight Chrome extension for inspecting API traffic directly from the current page.
It helps you:
- capture `fetch` and `XMLHttpRequest` activity
- spot WebSocket and EventSource connections
- review `navigator.sendBeacon` calls often used by analytics tooling
- identify common framework and platform signals
- filter, copy, clear, and export tab-scoped results
API Lens is built for Manifest V3 and keeps captured data local to the browser session. It does not send traffic data to a remote server.
