When turning on cookie capture from within Postman I kept getting a download failure perhaps because of a firewall issue. The only way to overcome this was to download it separately for Windows, install it then restart chrome. I used the link in [Interceptor integration for Postman Native Apps](https://community.postman.com/t/interceptor-integration-for-postman-native-apps/5290) which was very helpful ---

@holdep, can you tell us which version of postman you are using now? By following that link you mentioned do you see Interceptor connected on postman app? ---

I am using 7.20.0 Postman. If I run the install\_host batch file from the extracted link download then re-open Chrome it shows as connected in Postman. But if I try to click the Install Interceptor Bridge button in Postman the download always fails with an internet connection failure which is nothing to do with internet connection. ---

@holdep `INTERNET_CONNECTIVITY` is an error code which is shown when there are proxy issue, firewall issue or no internet connection. Please refer to our troubleshooting document [https://learning.postman.com/docs/postman/sending-api-requests/interceptor/#troubleshooting-tips](https://learning.postman.com/docs/postman/sending-api-requests/interceptor/#troubleshooting-tips) for resolving the errors while installation. ---

There is nothing in the troubleshooting documents about how to resolve this. It is most likely a firewall issue which I have no control over. So the only option is to download it separately which I did. It is misleading and not helpful to have a download within the application itself when on a corporate basis this is likely to fail.It would be better therefore to have this extra piece of software as part of the Postman installation files. ---

Hi @holdep, did you manage to fix or work around this issue? ---

That’s the button that does not work. The problem here is the “Install Interceptor Bridge” download inside Postman does not work and there’s no way to debug why it’s failing. ---

For those like me who wound up here wondering why the NodeJS interceptor bridge package won’t install… here it is: > **[node-request-interceptor](https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-request-interceptor)** > > Low-level HTTP/HTTPS/XHR request interception library for NodeJS. Latest version: 0.6.3, last published: a year ago. Start using node-request-interceptor in your project by running \`npm i node-request-interceptor\`. There is 1 other project in the npm... Still can’t get the app to recognize that I installed it globally. I’ll continue to work on this.
