Any way to allow only whitelisted requests? Or correct way to use setRequestInterceptionEnabled?

The purpose is to allow only whitelisted HTTP requests. I’d like to pass any request to be made to a function and reject/stop any requested URLs that don’t match a simple RegEx.

CDP.version:

{
   "Browser": "HeadlessChrome/59.0.3071.104",
   "Protocol-Version": "1.2",
   "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) HeadlessChrome/59.0.3071.104 Safari/537.36",
   "V8-Version": "5.9.211.35",
   "WebKit-Version": "537.36 (@1c037b7399035b4209e72455256615e8972493aa)"
}

Chrome-remote-interface: "chrome-remote-interface": "^0.23.2"

Have tried a couple of methods with dead ends:

1. Using Network.setBlockedURLs({ urls: urlsList }) - good if you know blocking URLs in advance (not in my case).
2. Using Network.requestWillBeSent. Are there any way to block request at this stage? It can easily extract the request information that is needed, but I haven’t found how I could stop the requests from continuing.
3. Using Network.enableRequestInterception from chrome-remote-interface protocol file or Network.setRequestInterceptionEnabled from Chrome DevTools Protocol Viewer - latest (tip-of-tree) with no success and the same errors: Error: 'NetworkAgent.enableRequestInterception' wasn't found Error: 'Network.setRequestInterceptionEnabled' wasn't found Even tried sending the same command as a client.send(method, [params], [callback]) from the docs with no luck.

I’ve stumbled upon this Google Doc explaining that Interception are meant for Blocking and Modifying Network requests so probably the best way would be to use that one and I’m simply not aren’t using it correctly.

Could you specify an example on how to properly use request Interceptions?
