Release notes

Changes to CDP Inspector, starting with version 2.1.0.

Refreshed popup and inspector interfaces, with easier custom header editing and clearer header status.

  • Refreshed interface: Updated the popup and inspector layouts for launch setup, tab discovery, screencasting, CDP commands, presets, and network logging.
  • Custom headers in Network: Moved custom HTTP header controls from Presets to the Network tab, available after enabling network logging.
  • Table and JSON editing: Replaced the JSON-only preset card with a dialog for adding, editing, and removing name/value rows, plus a Bulk edit (JSON) mode with validation and conversion back to table view. Closing and reopening the dialog preserves its draft.
  • Header status and actions: Added the Custom headers set indicator, Edit custom headers, and Clear headers controls, plus sent-command feedback and a View response shortcut.
  • Fewer permissions: Removed the unnecessary tabs permission. The extension requests only storage and localhost host access.
  • Clear headers resets the editor: Clearing now removes both table and JSON drafts. Reopening Add custom headers starts with one blank row and Set headers disabled until valid input is entered.
  • Network domain activation: Applying custom headers enables the Network domain when needed before sending Network.setExtraHTTPHeaders.
