Add support for proxy settings per collection

[basovnik]

It would be nice to support proxy settings per collection. We might have only some collections which need proxy.

[numaanashraf]

Thanks for the suggestion @basovnik. We'll take this into consideration while we improve our support for proxies.

Yes, this would be handy. I'm working on writing a proxy, and only the requests related to that project would need my proxy settings. Switching the Global Proxy Configuration or off while switching between projects is a bit of a nuisance, and is easy to forget when the pressure is on!

[frank-adler]

We need this, too. 👍

[teunis90]

We need this too, missed this issue. I've requested the same thing in #7285

In addition, as mentioned in #7285, this feature would be an alternative and more powerful implementation of:

• Postman doesn't bypass proxy for localhost if HTTP_PROXY is set #3942
• Exclude domains for proxy  #6380
• Add proxy exceptions or disable proxy for local urls #6484

Hope this will be implemented soon!

[dresh]

yes, can we get this please?

[JonasMatos0]

Having proxy per collections would really be handful.
That does prevent automating tests through postman in scenarios in which external tokens are needed for local environment setup.

2 years later... i would be happy to see this too, it makes no sense to configure a proxy only global....
actually, it needs to be set by collection and even by request to override it in case the call is special....

- global (like now)
 |-> collection (missing)
   |-> request (missing)

Is there any progress on this issue? It is much needed

[herenickname]

I join, necessary feature

[teunis90]

I have the feeling this is not an easy feature. It would be appreciated if we at least get feedback if this feature is planned or won't/can't be implemented.

[chrs-myrs]

This would be highly useful. Or if not this then maybe a whitelist of domains for which the proxy is only active. We are using the proxy to get around IP whitelists, so it only applies to some collections.

This is a great feature that is missing from Postman, my suggestion is to also have it enabled in pre-request script.

Or at least allow negated bypass in the global config
E.g
!*.github.com
To allow proxy on requests to Github domain

[mohammadmazen]

It's much needed issue, hope it will added soon!

[j5shi]

Can't believe it's still missing...need it so badly...

[mottersheadt]

Hey Postman team - this would be incredibly valuable. Please add support!

[Uj947nXmRqV2nRaWshKtHzTvckUUpD]

it s been 5 years and no progress on this basic feature.. what is happening?

[eprothro]

👍🏼 for our team as well.

An update from the Postman team or closing this issue would be helpful!

[fappaz]

Need this as well, though would prefer supporting proxy per collection as it's even more flexible.
