Abstract:

Techniques are disclosed relating to monitoring network traffic of an embeddable browser displayed by an application executing on a mobile computing device. In some embodiments, a first layer of the application manipulates one or more user interface elements displayed in the embeddable browser. The first layer of the application then detects network requests made by one or more application programming interfaces (APIs) executed by the embeddable browser in response to the manipulating. In some embodiments, the first layer sends to a second layer of the application results of observing network requests. In some embodiments, the second layer of the application displays, in real-time, information corresponding to the results of observing network requests. The disclosed techniques for monitoring activity on an embeddable browser included in mobile applications despite mobile security restrictions may advantageously reduce or remove wait times associated with manipulating and observing content of the embeddable browser.
