How to get a HAR capture

HAR (HTTP Archive) is a file format used by several HTTP session tools to export the captured data. The format is basically a JSON object with a particular field distribution. In any case, please note that not all the fields are mandatory, and many times some information won't be saved to the file.

HAR files contain sensitive data!

content of the pages you downloaded while recording
your cookies, which will allow anyone with the HAR file to impersonate your account
all the information that you submitted while recording: personal details, passwords, credit card numbers...

In any case you can get a capture of a HTTP session in any of the main 3 browsers: IE, Firefox and Chrome, even though we recommend Chrome or Firefox.

Internet Explorer/Edge

Edge natively produces HAR files. See detailed instructions in the Microsoft site

Open the Network tool in F12 developer tools
Reproduce the issue
Export captured traffic as a HAR (CTRL + S)

For Internet Explorer, you will need to use: HttpWatch .

Download and Install HttpWatch
Start the HttpWatch capture right before reproducing the behavior you want to study
Stop the HttpWatch capture right after reproducing the behavior to study
Export the capture to HAR format

Firefox

Start Firefox Developer Tools in Network mode (Top right menu > Developer > Network, or ctrl-shift-E)

Export the capture to a HAR file

Chrome

You can record your HTTP session using the Network tab in the Developer Tools in Chrome.

Open the Developer Tools from the menu (Menu > More Tools > Developer tools), or by pressing Ctrl+Shift+C on your keyboard
Click on the Network tab
Look for a round button at the top left of the Network tab. Make sure it is red. If it is grey, click it once to start recording.
Check the box next to Preserve log
You can use the clear button (a circle with a diagonal line through it) right before trying to reproduce the issue to remove unnecessary header information
