Postman Agent Disconnected

[benlaroche96 (Ben LaRoche)]

I just started using Postman. I downloaded Postman Agent to avoid CORS errors and now I have the following issue. The agent does not seem to be connected and the web application does not realize Postman Agent is installed. Can anyone help with this?

Hi @benlaroche96

Welcome to the community

Could you click on “Check for Updates” on the agent and see if that helps? Once done, refresh the page and see if that helps to get connected.

My Postman App freezes/hangs

@calebonigbinde May I know if you have tried clicking on “Use Postman Desktop Agent” shown in the below console? Please note, you will need to install and connect to “Postman Agent” and select “Desktop Agent” as below to send requests as of now.

All of this actions didn’t help me, agent shows disconnected. I use it on MacBook HighSierra OS. Check for update won’t work.

@damakon Just to update - currently the Postman Agent is not supported on Safari. Could you try using Postman Web on other browsers such as Chrome and see if that helps?

I use Chrome and I am having this exact same issue

Hi Aubrey,

Another user had a similar issue and seemed to have some success changing their proxy settings. If you want to look at their post, you can take a look here.

Hope that helps!

If you are using brave browser, turn the shield off.
