GraphQL DevTools Chrome Extension

Last updated: March 23, 2026

Overview

GraphQL DevTools is a Chrome extension that intercepts and displays GraphQL network requests directly within your browser's DevTools panel. This privacy policy explains what data the extension accesses and how it is handled.

Data We Access

The extension monitors network requests made by your browser in order to detect and display GraphQL queries, mutations, and subscriptions. This includes:

  • Request URLs, headers, and body payloads of GraphQL requests
  • Response bodies returned by GraphQL endpoints
  • Timing and status metadata associated with those requests

Data We Do Not Collect or Store

GraphQL DevTools does not collect, store, transmit, or share any data. All network data is processed entirely within your local browser session and displayed in the DevTools panel for your own inspection. Specifically:

  • No data is sent to any external server or third party
  • No data is written to disk or persisted after you close the DevTools panel
  • No analytics, telemetry, or crash reports are collected
  • No user accounts or identifiers are created

Permissions

The extension requests the webRequest and debugger Chrome permissions solely to intercept and read network traffic within the active tab's DevTools session. These permissions are used only to surface information locally to you and for no other purpose.

Third-Party Services

GraphQL DevTools does not integrate with, or send data to, any third-party service.

Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be published on this page with a revised date.
