Start With The Fastest Checks
Before diving into platform-specific troubleshooting, confirm these basics:- Requestly Interceptor is running and the correct browser, device, or runtime is connected
- you completed the relevant HTTP Interceptor setup guide
- the traffic you expect is actually leaving the app or browser
- you are looking in the correct interception view
Choose The Symptom That Matches Your Issue
Only HTTP Works
HTTPS traffic usually fails when the certificate is missing or not trusted.
Localhost Traffic Is Missing
Localhost and
127.0.0.1 need additional setup.Browser Or App Is Not Showing Any Traffic
Revisit the matching browser or runtime setup path first.
Mobile Device Or Emulator Is Connected But Empty
Verify proxy, network, and certificate setup for the device or emulator.
Browser And System-Wide Troubleshooting
Only HTTP Traffic Is Intercepted
HTTPS traffic usually means the SSL certificate is not installed or trusted correctly.- Follow Troubleshooting Untrusted SSL Certificate
- Restart the browser or app after updating certificate trust
Localhost Traffic Is Missing
Interceptinglocalhost or 127.0.0.1 requires extra configuration.
Safari-Specific Problems
Safari can require certificate regeneration and a full app restart.- Follow Troubleshooting Safari
Mobile Devices And Emulators
Device Is Connected But Traffic Is Missing
Check all of the following:- the device and desktop app are on the same network
- the proxy settings match the Requestly Interceptor desktop app
- the SSL certificate is installed and trusted
- the correct setup guide was followed for the device or simulator
Emulator Is Not Detected
Restart the Requestly Interceptor Desktop App and reconnect the emulator. If the emulator still does not appear, re-run the matching platform setup steps.Only Some Mobile Apps Are Intercepted
This is commonly caused by SSL pinning. Proxy-based tools cannot intercept pinned secure traffic unless the app supports it.- Review the SSL pinning section in Android devices
Other Common Causes
Blocked Domains
Make sure you did not exclude the target domain from interception.Still Need Help?
If the issue persists, collect these details before contacting support:- where you are intercepting from: browser, system-wide, mobile device, emulator, terminal, or Node.js
- operating system and Requestly Interceptor version
- whether HTTP works while HTTPS fails
- whether localhost traffic is involved
- any visible proxy, certificate, or console errors
