Setup

From download to your first request

  1. 01

    Install

    Open the DMG and drag HTTPGlass into Applications. The app is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple; macOS only asks you to confirm opening something you downloaded.

  2. 02

    Trust the root certificate

    The setup assistant creates a certificate that belongs to this Mac only and asks macOS to trust it. macOS asks for your password once.

  3. 03

    Start capturing

    HTTPGlass points your network services at its local proxy on 127.0.0.1 and puts them back when you stop or quit.

  4. 04

    Load a page

    Open any site or app. Requests appear as they happen, labelled with the app that sent them.
