Demo: turn a browser export into an API debugging note
A good HAR review captures the user action, then explains which request was slow or failed. The viewer helps reduce a raw JSON export into a few facts that belong in an issue.
- Record only the failing workflow, not a full browsing session.
- Remove cookies, Authorization, Set-Cookie, and private query parameters.
- Compare status codes and timings before assuming the frontend is at fault.
1. Reproduce checkout submit
2. Export HAR from DevTools Network panel
3. Remove Cookie and Authorization headers
4. Inspect failed requests and slowest calls
5. Attach screenshot plus sanitized request IDsThis workflow creates a useful bug report without exposing the entire browser session.
