# Timeline

> Inspect the main request, script-triggered HTTP calls, and console output in one chronological view.

**Timeline** tab shows everything that happened during a request run. It includes the main HTTP call, any extra requests made from scripts, and the resolved request details for each step.

## Timeline Interface

The Timeline tab is organized into three categories:

1. **Request**
2. **Response**
3. **Network Logs**

### 1. Request Tab

The Request tab displays everything that was sent with your API request:

* **URL** - The complete endpoint URL
* **Query Parameters** - Query strings and path variables
* **Request Body** - The data payload sent with the request
* **Request Headers** - All headers included in the request
* **Authentication** - Authentication details and credentials
* **Variables** - Variables used in the request

### 2. Response Tab

The Response tab shows all information received from the server:

* **Status Code** - HTTP status code of the response
* **Response Headers** - All headers returned by the server
* **Response Body** - The complete response data
* **Response Size** - Size of the response payload
* **Execution Time** - Time taken to complete the request

### 3. Network Logs Tab

The Network Logs tab provides low-level network insights for advanced debugging:

* **Request/Response Flow** - Detailed timeline of the network transaction
* **Network Timing** - Breakdown of connection, DNS, SSL, and transfer times
* **Protocol Details** - HTTP version and connection information
* **Debugging Information** - Additional network-level diagnostics

This comprehensive view helps you identify performance bottlenecks, debug connection issues, and understand the complete lifecycle of your API requests.

## Script Logs in Timeline

When scripts use [`bru.sendRequest()`](/testing/script/javascript-reference#brusendrequestoptions-callback) or [`bru.runRequest()`](/testing/script/javascript-reference#brurunrequestrequestpathname), Timeline lists every HTTP call made during the run. Use the filter tabs to narrow the view.

The number on each tab is how many requests match that filter.

| Tab               | What it shows                                                                                                                                                       |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **All**           | Every HTTP request from the run including the main request plus any calls made from scripts (with or without `sendRequest` / `runRequest`).                         |
| **Request**       | Only the **main request** — the HTTP call defined in the request URL bar (method, URL, body, and headers you configured in Bruno).                                  |
| **Pre-Request**   | Only HTTP requests executed during the **pre-request script** phase (from `bru.sendRequest()` or `bru.runRequest()` before the main request is sent).               |
| **Post-Response** | Only HTTP requests executed during the **post-response** or **test** script phase (from `bru.sendRequest()` or `bru.runRequest()` after the main response returns). |
