I am using chrome webRequest API to intercept all web requests generated by some third party extensions into my chrome extension. WebRequest APIs works for requests triggered by browser and content script(3rd party extension). For ajax request triggered from background script of 3rd party extension are not captured into my extension.
Can you please suggets me how this will be possible.
NOTE:
I am working on Selenium automation hence can not use DevTools API, because Selenium and DevTools does not function at a time, see here.

Hi Yogesh,
Were you able to get around this issue? Actually I am having a very similar issue where I need to capture some background xhr requests from other extensions using my google chrome extension. In my case it is the Google Hangout extension which send XHR requests from background which I need to capture. Please let me know if you were able to solve this issue and what should be done to accomplish this. Thanks
