Once all these steps are done, we go to Charlesproxy and click on the button “Start Recording” (Or also, from Proxy > Start Recording) and from now you will have any HTTP/HTTPS traffic exiting from the mobile. It should be enough by putting a name and accepting the installation. A dialog will automatically appear to install a new certificate on mobile as shown in the following picture: Once the emulator is opened, we will install the certificate that gives us Charles Proxy by opening from our mobile browser this url. For that, when the time of launching it arrives, we will need to pass the IP of our Charles Proxy as an environment variable (in Charles Proxy: Help > Local IP Address), with something similar to the following command:Įmulator -netdelay none -netspeed full -avd -http-proxy (If we have changed the port for another when we had to set up the Charles, we also have to change the port value) Once we set up Charles Proxy, we are going to set up our Android emulator.
To do this, let’s Proxy in the menu and follow those steps: SETUP CHARLES PROXYįirst of all we will configure our Charles Proxy. This tool can be used to monitor all HTTP and HTTPS traffic, using for it certificates that the Proxy itself provides us, with a duration of 24 hours.
Therefore we will present a tool that is very useful, as much in the case covered in this article, as in many others, Charles Proxy. Instead, when you are working with a mobile device, both physical and virtual, the analysis of this traffic is not as trivial. Client requests and server responses are easily traceable and reproducible. I recommend you continue reading, you will love it! At least we love here at Apiumhub.ĭeveloping a Web application is immediately viewing and analyzing all HTTP requests that are made. In this article, we will discuss about how to capture the traffic of our Android application using a tool called Charles Proxy.
