About Blackbox API Visualizer
Blackbox API Visualizer is a Chrome DevTools extension for understanding
network and API traffic directly inside your browser.
Instead of digging through hundreds of raw network requests, Blackbox
organizes traffic into a developer-focused interface with request inspection,
session analysis, and an interactive network graph.
Features:
• Capture network requests directly from Chrome DevTools
• Inspect Fetch, XHR, documents, scripts, stylesheets, images, WebSockets,
and other request types
• View request URLs, headers, query parameters, bodies, response metadata,
timing information, and initiator details
• Explore an interactive graph of pages, domains, and API endpoints
• Identify repeated requests, polling behavior, error clusters, slow requests,
and large responses
• Analyze top endpoints and domains across a DevTools session
• Filter requests by type, errors, domain, and session insights
• Inspect captured response bodies without replaying network requests
Blackbox is designed for developers debugging unfamiliar applications,
tracking API behavior, investigating performance issues, and understanding
how a web application communicates with its backend services.
Blackbox processes captured network information inside the DevTools
extension and does not transmit captured traffic to a Blackbox server.
