Burp Proxy Help - In-Browser Controls

In addition to the main user interface, you can control Burp Proxy directly from within your browser.

The full Proxy history can be accessed by visiting http://burp with your browser. The history is displayed in a table showing the key details of each request.

Clicking on an entry in the "URL" column displays the original request in raw form. Clicking on an entry in the "modified?" column displays the relevant modified request.

When an individual request is displayed in full, the request can be reissued by clicking the "Repeat request" button. Depending on the currently configured interception rules, the request may be intercepted within the main UI.

If available, you can also view the original response within your browser by clicking the "View response" button. This causes Burp to return the exact response that was originally received from the server, and neither the request nor response will be intercepted within Burp. Note that when the browser receives the saved response from Burp Proxy, this may cause the browser to make additional requests (for images, CSS, etc.) in the course of rendering the response - these will be handled by Burp in the usual way.

You can disable in the in-browser interface if required, in the Proxy options.
