Why minimum of 10 seconds
Could you please remove this constraint?
I try to monitor an api every 3 or 5 seconds, but I'm not able to, due to this constraint?
Why are you trying to monitor an API via a browser refresh? Just do it in bash.
Circumventing is already possible, as per FAQ: Use shift-click, you can set it to even 1sec.
Indeed, why 10 seconds min?
I am working with reverse proxies, frontend, backend, azure, and I would love to have this ability. Yeah I can do curls via my bash but, why can't i just open multiple tabs and have auto refresh to find this specific tab which will work when I am making changes? Why even put a limitation there?
It's probably a good idea to prevent 99% of users who don't read the FAQ from producing retarded load everywhere. People don't realize the consequences of their actions and likely always use the lowest, effectively DoSing unknowingly.

There is no limitation. Did you not read the post directly above?
Yeah it would be nice to have it working without pressing shift. I also guess the target group of this addon most of the time knows what they are doing.
I like to refresh my JSON api with this gem during testing (i also have another json formatter addon installed), so the json gets autoformatted pretty.
Maybe set the minimum to 1 second, DDOssing with 1 request per second is not really a DDOS imo (if its really the case, you are probably doing something wrong :D)

No idea how many people use add-ons like this, but you know how quickly things escalate if enough get used to it. Most servers are trivial to DoS. Unless you're a dev and it's your own machine, excessive refreshing is just being an asshole.

Not sure why you'd want that in a browser. Give this a shot:
watch -cn10 "curl -s https://v2.jokeapi.dev/joke/Any | jq -C"
jq does pretty print and you get the full power of a real parser.
watch -cn10 "curl -s https://v2.jokeapi.dev/joke/Any | jq -C '.type,.setup,.delivery,.joke'"
Also handy:
watch -d -cn10 "curl -s https://v2.jokeapi.dev/joke/Any | jq -C '.type,.setup,.delivery,.joke'"
thanks, but its more handy to just refresh a browser. i dont agree with your DDOS opinion, sorry. Could you add a licence to your github repo?
I will create a fork if you allow it.
