How can I determine which browser tab a request is coming from?

I set up a proxy (using Postman) that Chrome is now routing all requests through.

I see a bunch of requests being made to a site I don't recognize, and it repeats every few seconds. I have about 50 Chrome tabs open, so I'm wondering, is there a quick way I can determine which tab this request is coming from?

Solution 1:

Is there a quick way I can determine which tab this request is coming from?

After a quick Google search, a Chrome extension called Web Sniffer may be one solution to your problem. It lists requests made in real-time and has a column that has a link to the given tab that made a particular request:

ex. Active Tab Links

That is, when you click the underlined Tab number (e.g. 457), you will be taken to the open tab that generated the request.

As minor caveats, closed tabs don't have this option (i.e. there is no underline) and reopening a closed tab will (apparently) generate a different tab number.
