How to search through all the ajax responses in network tab in Chrome?
I want to do this is because it is difficult for a JavaScript developer to get to know which information is coming from which service call, especially if you are new to the project and business logic is not clear. Also, opening each service in a network tab and searching in responses of so many service calls is difficult and time consuming.

As of Chrome version 91, if you want to search through all resources (not just AJAX/fetched resources), then you need to open DevTools and then press Ctrl+Shift+F to open a search box. If you just type into the "filter" text input then it only searches through the URLs, rather than also searching the contents.
