![]() We want to install Interceptor which you can grab from the POSTMAN site or again download directly from Google Store. So there is an extension for POSTMAN to workaround these restrictions which is an app in it’s own right called Interceptor. Install InterceptorĪs I previously mentioned, Chrome has security restrictions in place that limit POSTMAN ability to create requests with custom headers and Cookies (or at least that’s my take on it). Once installed head over to your Apps page and load up POSTMAN. So if you haven’t already got POSTMAN installed, head over to the POSTMAN site or download it directly from the Google Store. If you don’t use Chrome browser there are other tools similar to POSTMAN available (I’m a big fan of BurpSuite, something I may blog on another time). ![]() ![]() I didn’t find much help on Google or StackOverflow so after a bit of fiddling and complaining I managed to get it working and I thought it would be good to put together a blog post on how to setup the POSTMAN proxy.īefore we start it’s worth saying that POSTMAN is a Chrome application so you will need the Chrome browser installed. However, when I first started to use the proxy I found it a bit tricky to setup due to some security restrictions in Chrome that POSTMAN has to work around. Recently POSTMAN has been extended to include a proxy that will save a copy of each request you make in your browser, when enabled, and is extremely useful for various tasks such as rapidly creating collections of requests and modeling a web application. For those unfamiliar with POSTMAN it’s an app for Chrome that allows you to create HTTP requests for Web and API testing as well as save requests into collections for future use. Since being introduced to POSTMAN a few years back it’s become one of the main tools I use in my day to day testing and it’s a cracking piece of kit for testing with a lot of great features to boot.
