Steps to override response body in chrome extension

1) Open devtools, navigate to "Response Override" tab
2) Click "Add Row"
3) Enter URL contains value only this URL response will be modified. If you want to modify URL in home page like www.example.com and no URI Path, use Special variable called ~NO_URI~ in URL contains field.

5) Enter Replace value to replace with. No need to provide content-type

7) Click "Play" button to start modifying response.
8) You must click pause button to stop this modification.
9) You must keep this devtools open
10) Issue with the override, either open private tab with only this plugin enabled in private tab or please try disabling other plugins working with network, like request header modifier and run this plugin again. If the other plugins using old network API may affect this plugin

Ex.
If you want to add new node in json.
Find: "existingNode":"existingValue"
Replace: "existingNode":"existingValue", "newNode": "newValue"

If you want to modify URL in home page like on www.example.com page and no URI Path, use Special variable called ~NO_URI~ in URL contains field.

Special Variable
1. If you put "~NO_API~" (without ") in Find, no remote call will be made, provide full response. Provide content-type in this case.
2. If you want to modify URL in home page like on www.example.com page and no URI Path, use Special variable called ~NO_URI~ in URL contains field.

How This works: This devtools extension add network break point and listen to URL contains the user input Make API Client call and get response. Do Find and Replace on top of response. Serve the replaced response.

New on V1.7:
1.Moving away from chrome.tabs.getSelected to chrome.tabs.query
New on V1.6:
1. Fix using "/" in URL contains breaking page. Instead please use ~NO_URI~

It does the job, but unfortunately it only works when devtools are open, which makes it useless for me.

terrible extension.

I'm sure this is great when it works but it appears that for me, on Chrome 99, when the Play button is clicked, no TabID is ever returned because chrome.tabs.getSelected no longer works or is bugged when it's called from developer tools. I am not good with JS but after a few hours of trying to use the newer chrome.tabs.query, instead of chrome.tabs.getSelected, I was not able to get it to work. Without being able to get the TabID, this extension will not work and I do not want to go back to version 40 or prior to get this to work.

Cannot find it in DevTools...
Installed, manage Extensions says it is "Active", but when I open DevTools, there is no Response Override tab as in screenshots...
How can I use this?

Not working at all. No feedback after clicking pause/start buttons.
