I have POST requests returning Server-Sent Events in my ReST API. It's like:

event: userconnect
data: {"username": "bobby", "time": "02:33:48"}

event: usermessage
data: {"username": "bobby", "time": "02:34:11", "text": "Hi everyone."}

event: userdisconnect
data: {"username": "bobby", "time": "02:34:23"}

event: usermessage
data: {"username": "sean", "time": "02:34:36", "text": "Bye, bobby."}

There can be delays between chunks like 3-5 seconds. Currently Hoppscotch buffers chunks and only displays them at the end. I can debug such requests only with curl's --no-buffer
