#### Signature:

class Page {
  abstract waitForRequest(

    options?: {
      timeout?: number;
    }
  ): Promise<HTTPRequest>;
}
```

## Parameters

| Parameter      | Type                                                                                                 | Description                              |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| urlOrPredicate | string \| ((req: [HTTPRequest](./puppeteer.httprequest.md)) =&gt; boolean \| Promise&lt;boolean&gt;) | A URL or predicate to wait for           |
| options        | { timeout?: number; }                                                                                | _(Optional)_ Optional waiting parameters |

**Returns:**

Promise&lt;[HTTPRequest](./puppeteer.httprequest.md)&gt;

Promise which resolves to the matched request

## Remarks

Optional Waiting Parameters have:

- `timeout`: Maximum wait time in milliseconds, defaults to `30` seconds, pass `0` to disable the timeout. The default value can be changed by using the [Page.setDefaultTimeout()](./puppeteer.page.setdefaulttimeout.md) method.

## Example

```ts
const firstRequest = await page.waitForRequest('https://example.com/resource');
const finalRequest = await page.waitForRequest(
  request => request.url() === 'https://example.com'
);
return finalRequest.response()?.ok();
```
