Tim, I don't see the Product column in Chrome. Was is removed? Can you provide more details about this? E.g. Do we have related platform API to get that info?

It seems to have been removed from Chrome. So maybe it wasn't useful enough?

Can you provide more details about this? E.g. Do we have related platform API to get that info?

I think this post+GIF would describe it better than I would ever do: https://umaar.com/dev-tips/143-network-products/

I don't know if there's a platform API, but this feature was meant to easily distinguish CDNs/ads/etc in the list of requests.

The implementation in chrome is linked in comment 0.
