HTTP Interceptor helps you inspect and debug real network traffic. Use it when you need to see what your browser, app, device, or runtime is actually sending and receiving.

When To Use HTTP Interceptor

Use HTTP Interceptor when you want to:
  • inspect requests and responses in real time
  • debug browser, mobile, emulator, terminal, or Node.js traffic
  • verify whether an issue is in the client, proxy, or backend
  • capture traffic for sessions, HAR analysis, or later mocking
If you already know exactly how you want to change traffic, go to HTTP Rules.

Choose Your Interception Setup

Browser Extension

Best for browser-only workflows and the fastest setup.

Desktop App

Best for mobile apps, emulators, localhost, terminal tools, Node.js, and system-wide traffic.

First Success Path

1

Pick Browser Extension Or Desktop App

Use the Browser Extension for browser-based traffic. Use the Desktop App when you need proxy-based interception outside the browser.
2

Complete The Matching Setup Guide

Follow one setup path and make sure the browser, device, or runtime is correctly connected to Requestly Interceptor.
3

Confirm Traffic Is Visible

Open the network table or browser interception view and verify requests appear before moving on to rules or mocks.

Explore By Runtime

Desktop Browsers

Connect Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and similar browsers through the Desktop App.

Android Devices

Intercept traffic from Android phones and tablets.

Android Emulators

Capture traffic from Android Studio emulators.

iOS Devices & Simulators

Set up iPhones, iPads, and iOS simulators.

Node.js

Debug server-side requests from Node.js applications.

Terminal & CLI Tools

Inspect cURL, scripts, and other command-line network activity.

After Traffic Starts Flowing

Create Rules

Modify intercepted traffic once you know what needs to change.

Capture Sessions

Save traffic and debugging context for sharing, replaying, or mock creation.

Import HAR Files

Analyze previously captured network data inside Requestly Interceptor.

Fix Interception Issues

Use the troubleshooting path for certificate, localhost, proxy, or device issues.
