Filtering attack results - Port Swigger
Summary: PortSwigger's documentation describes two filters for managing Burp Intruder attack results: a Capture filter that controls which items Intruder captures during an attack to limit resource usage, and a View filter that controls which captured items appear in the results table without deleting them. The Capture filter can discard items without responses and capture by search term (with regex, case-sensitive, and negative search options), by HTTP status code, or by annotation, while the View filter offers the same search, status code, and annotation criteria for display only.
Key Takeaway: The capture filter applies only to items generated after it is set, so a filter configured mid-attack leaves everything already captured in the results, and the documentation advises pausing the attack while configuring it to keep unwanted items out of the table.
