Breakpoint

Paid Feature

A breakpoint rule pauses flows before the request being sent to the server, and/or the response being sent to the client, depending on the options. It gives the user a chance to manually edit the content of requests and responses.

Flows that are paused by a breakpoint rule:

  • are marked with a “pause” icon in the flow list.
  • have an action bar when selected.
  • are categorized in the “On Breakpoint” item in the side bar.
