Adding custom columns in the HTTP history - Port Swigger

Summary: PortSwigger documents how to add custom columns to Burp Suite's HTTP history table using Java-based scripts, loaded from a Bambda library or written from built-in templates. The scripts use two Montoya API objects, ProxyHttpRequestResponse and Utilities, and are compiled and tested with an Apply button that surfaces errors in a Compilation errors panel.
What you should know: PortSwigger warns that slow or resource-intensive scripts can slow down Burp, so a column built to surface detail in HTTP history carries a direct performance cost for the analyst running it.
