Usually with a tool called wireshark (
https://www.wireshark.org/download.html) and a filter enabled for usb only.
Depends on your system environment, you maybe have to install a general
purpose usb driver which enables to debug the usb traffic.

But the last time I used wireshark, it will give you a hint if that is
needed.
