Hi, first post here.
Long-time postman user but never proxied. Today I had the need to test a proxy.
I set in settings | proxy | proxy configuration for sending requests:
- Use the system proxy = OFF
- Add a custom proxy configuration = ON
- Proxy = http + https
- Proxy server => The IP address of the proxy : port-of-the-proxy
- Proxy Auth = OFF (the proxy does not need user+pwd)
- User + Pwd are grayed out (as expected)
- Proxy Bypass = I leave it blank.
Then I close settings and I do a GET http://checkip.amazonaws.com/
PROBLEM:
The response gives me my IP instead of the Proxy’s IP. This yields me to think the request does not use the proxy.
If I open settings, the proxy config is there (ie: It’s not that it was not saved).
The proxy works well if I consume it from PHP.
QUESTION:
What must I do to tell Postman to use the proxy?
