No documentation on how the tool works as well as simple rules doesn't take effect. Has no effect on the sites. Feels like a data mining extention as all it want access to is your browser history and does nothing with it.

Dear Vinay Kumar, I am struggling to use this extension to intercept and modify a web request. There's nothing that I can refer to as a guidance or demo. Kindly share its SOP or something by which all of the users can have benefits of this tool without hurdles. Thank you.

It was awesome until recent update. Now instead of redirecting 1 single script (302 redirect) it looks like extension modifies the request which leads to redirecting me away from target address. Example. Assume I have mysite.com with script file on url "/js/script.js". I want to redirect request to this script so it will be downloaded from my local machine. I create redirect rule mysite.com/js/script.js --> localhost/js/script.js Previously, when I opened mysite.com it worked fine and everything except script.js was downloaded from mysite.com and script.js was downloaded from localhost. Now when I try to go to mysite.com I come to localhost because there is no 302 redirection now for script.js, there is some kind of url replacement. It took me 15 minutes for googling how to create redirect rule using google chrome extension. After 15 mins more I got my own plugin for that. I would suggest every programmer to do the same. It's much easier than trying to configure 3rd party extensions

Useless for me unless it could support regexes or wildcards.

It can be used, but the implementation conditions of this plugin are often confusing

Nice tool but lacks the feature i need i want to modify a part of my url which is dynamic. i can't use the "redirect to" feature because it requires a static url as a target. you should add a feature that allows to modify part of the url with a regex which should be very easy to implement
