We recently migrated a core web-app from a.b.io to alpha.beta.int.com.

I'm very used to having chrome autofill help me navigate around this app. For example, I type gamma when I want to get to a.b.io/internal/gamma-team.

Instead of clearing history and starting from scratch, is there a way to update my history to make all my old navigation shortcuts continue to work, but point me to the new website instead?

Basically is there a way to sed -i 's/a.b.io/alpha.beta.int.com/g' "chrome_history" and have that feed back to the autofill?

The Chrome history is stored for Windows in the folder C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default, and for the Mac in /Users/{username}/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default.

It is found inside an SQLite database file named History (no file extension), specifically in an SQL table named keyword_search_terms. For URL predictions, the table is called 'urls'.

For doing modifications, you will need an SQLite database utility such as: DBeaver, MySQL Workbench, DbVisualizer or SQLite Browser for OS X.
