How do I calculate the length in the proxy http history

Nodi | Last updated: Mar 24, 2018 11:21AM UTC

I was wondering about the size in the length column (in proxy http history),it has been said in the documentation that the length refer to the response length but it dose not seems like this, for example I have length is equal to 204 but in the response tab the actual content-length is 42 so how the length is calculated? and how do I map the response length with the length column

Hi Nodi, The response length is the full length of the response including headers. The content-length is just the length of the body. Please let us know if you need any further assistance.
