Content detection
Scrapeman auto-detects the response content type: JSON, HTML, XML, image, PDF, text, or binary.
View modes per content type
| Content type | Available modes |
|---|---|
| JSON | Raw, Pretty (formatted), Tree (collapsible with JSONPath copy) |
| HTML | Raw, Pretty, Preview (sandboxed iframe) |
| XML | Raw, Pretty |
| Image | Raw (hex), Preview (rendered) |
| Raw, Preview (Chromium PDF viewer) | |
| Text / binary | Raw |
Lazy parsing: the default view is Raw. JSON.parse and tree rendering only happen
when you switch to Pretty or Tree view.
Response body search
Search within the response body with highlight, previous/next navigation. The search persists across sends and auto-re-runs when a new response arrives.
Metrics
Every response shows: HTTP status, TTFB (time to first byte), download time, body size, and protocol (HTTP/1.1 or h2).
