  3. Enable the system proxy — Weproxa can automatically configure your Mac’s system proxy settings. Click the network icon in the toolbar to toggle it on.

  4. Install the CA certificate — to inspect HTTPS traffic, go to Settings → Certificates and click Install to macOS Keychain. This is a one-time setup. See Certificate Trust for details.

  5. Enable SSL for a host — click the lock icon in the toolbar and add the hosts you want to inspect (e.g., api.example.com or *.example.com). Alternatively, right-click any request and select Enable SSL. See SSL Interception for details.

  6. Browse the web — open your browser or app and make some requests. They’ll appear in the request list in real time.

  7. Inspect a request — click on any request in the list to see its full details: headers, body, timing, and more.
