Fiddler doesn't capture request from Insomnia but does capture rquest from Postman

Just sending a simple POST request to https://httpbin.org/post.

Fiddler captures the request when I send it from Postman, but doesn't when I send it from Insomnia.

Is there some setting I need to enable either in Fiddler or Insomnia?

Solution

  • By default, Fiddler changes the system proxy to point to the port it's listening onto, http://localhost:8888. Contrary, Insomnia doesn't use the system proxy, but could be manually configured to use a specified proxy:

    • Choose Settings -> HTTP Proxy and set http://localhost:8888 (or whatever Fiddler is using).
