How to view WS/WSS Websocket request content using Firebug or other?


Is there a way to view the Websocket traffic?

Only Websocket headers are visible on the initial handshake.

Everything disappears after the response:

Connection  Upgrade
Sec-WebSocket-Accept    EQqklpK6bzlgAAOL2EFX/nx8bEI=
Upgrade WebSocket

I've tried Firebug, Live Headers, and Fiddler2 to trace the exchange and they all stop logging there.


Solution

  • Websocket inspection has been added to Firefox with version 71 has been there since 2019.

    In the Developer Tools, under the Network tab select the websocket request and select the Response tab.
