What's new in DevTools (Microsoft Edge 153)

These are the latest DevTools features in the Stable release of Microsoft Edge.

Network: Resend requests and edit and resend requests as fetch calls

The Network tool now provides improved ways to send a captured network request again:

• Resend sends a supported request again without reloading the webpage. See Resend a request in Network features reference.

• Edit and resend as fetch opens an editable fetch() call in the Console tool so that you can modify the URL, method, headers, or body before sending the request. See Edit and resend a request as a fetch call in Network features reference.

These commands help you quickly replay a request and test changes to its data or configuration without repeating the original interaction in the webpage.

These new features are planned to replace the experimental Network Console tool. Share your feedback in Network Console feedback.
