How to fix the Puppeteer error: Response is missing for the interception


Error

Response is missing for the interception

What it means

Puppeteer raised this from its network and request interception code. In practice, it usually means your script reached a browser, page, frame, element, or option state that the API cannot use safely.

How to fix it

  • Call page.setRequestInterception(true) before handling requests.
  • Ensure each intercepted request is resolved exactly once with continue, respond, or abort.
  • Return immediately after handling a request to avoid fall-through in multiple listeners.

Minimal guard

try {
  // Run the Puppeteer operation that triggers this error.
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof Error && error.message.includes("Response is missing for the interception")) {
    // Apply the fix above, then retry or fail with a clearer message.
  }
  throw error;
}
