Description
Problem
At times, a query returns response headers as in auth tokens, login key etc. These are to be passed alongside other queries for authorization purposes. Currently, we do expose these in inspector but user is not able to access these with query object.
Solution
Frontend
Show API Request preview along with query response preview

Research direction
Start by locating the frontend inspector and the query response preview described in the issue. Trace how the query object is exposed to the UI, then add the API Request preview so response headers can be accessed alongside the query response; done means the preview displays the request and returned headers as shown in the provided image.
