I was testing a system that created particularly long URLs that were hard to read because there were so many query parameters. I needed a way to fix that.
I was just about to write a small tool to parse the url and show me the query parameters in a nice view, and then thought to ask myself… can the dev tools do this already?
Yes they can.
- Chrome - network tab, click on the request, headers, look at the bottom to see the query params
- Safari - network tab, click on the request, headers, look at the bottom to see the query params
- Edge - network tab, click on the request, parameters, to see the query params
- Firefox - network tab, click on the request, params, to see the query params
