Rest Api Monitor

**🔍 Professional API Monitoring Made Simple**

REST API Monitor is a powerful Chrome extension designed specifically for developers, QA engineers, and API analysts who need comprehensive insights into REST API communication patterns. With its intuitive interface and advanced filtering capabilities, this extension provides real-time monitoring and detailed logging of all API requests made by web applications.

**✨ Key Features:**

🔍 **Real-time API Monitoring** - Monitor all REST API requests (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH) in real-time with detailed request information including headers, body, and response data. Generate cURL commands for easy replication.

📊 **Tab-based Organization** - Organize API logs by individual browser tabs. Each tab maintains its own separate log history for easy tracking of API calls for specific websites.

🎛️ **Selective Tab Monitoring** - Choose which tabs to monitor with individual checkboxes. Enable or disable API logging for specific tabs without affecting others.

🔍 **Advanced Filtering & Search** - Filter API requests by HTTP method and search by URL patterns with real-time filtering to focus on specific API endpoints.

📝 **Comprehensive Request Details** - Capture request headers, body data, timestamps, and response information for complete API analysis.

📤 **Export Capabilities** - Export filtered API logs to JSON format for sharing with team members or integration with other tools.
