Filtering traffic
Trace includes a dedicated Filters panel to reduce noise and focus on the requests you care about.
Open the Filters panel
From the Network screen, open Filters to configure capture and view filters.
Quick filters
- Favorites only: show only starred requests
- Errors only: show HTTP 4xx/5xx responses
- Duplicates only: highlight repeated requests and refresh detection
Domain filters
Add domains to include or exclude traffic.
- Supports wildcards like
*.example.com - Useful for focusing on a single backend
Method and status filters
- Filter by HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.)
- Filter by a specific status code
Content type filters
Filter by response content type (JSON, HTML, images, and more) to focus on a specific payload type.
Saved presets
Save a filter configuration and reuse it later from the Saved Presets list.
Tip
Combine domain + method + status filters to find a single endpoint quickly.
Example filters
- Only API errors: domain
api.example.com+ status>= 400 - Images only: content type
image/* - Checkout flow: domain
checkout.example.com+ methodPOST
Performance tips
- Apply filters early to reduce list size.
- Save presets for repeated investigations.
