Show sent POST Values with Fiddler..How do i do that?

Question

I make some requests to a site and i want to see, what kind of variables has been sent to the server..

May be its possible with fiddler but i can't figure it out, how to do it..

Answer 1

You can do this in Fiddler using the following steps.

• Locate the request in fiddler that relates to the post - you should be able to see the URL you expect in the URL column.

• Select that line and the detailed view will open. There is a WebForms tab (inside "Inspectors") that displays the POST data in a neat table. You can also see it in the Raw tab, but it isn't nicely formatted like the WebForms tab.

I have made a screenshot to help you:

Answer 2

POST data can be seen in the Inspectors -> Raw window which will display the whole request along with POST data and headers.

EDIT: Yep... The Inspectors -> WebForms dialog would be another way however I usually don't make much use of it... Don't know why.

Answer 3

It works for me. Just click on the request in the Web Sessions pane, Then click WebForms tab within the Inspectors tab on the right.

Answer 4

I ran into this same problem but the answers here did not help me. WebForms does not display json posted data. I figured out for posted json data, you need to check the Textview tab.

To summarise:

• Inspectors->WebForms: will show you classic html form posted values.

• Inspectors->Textview: will show you json and text posted values.
