Setup for this feature
Network Payload Capture requires both physical setup to add a certificate on the device as well as defining settings within the Portal. Please see the following articles for more information on setup:
The following outlines the steps for defining settings within the Portal:
- Go into Settings/ Network Capture to pull up the setting form
- Input the base-domain that you want to capture the network transactions (i.e all transactions from sub-domains will be captured also)
- Click on Advanced to change the data type you want to capture. By default, Application/ json will be captured

Since we do not support certificate pinning yet, it should be more stable on web and hybrid application. For native application, you could face some errors while running the sessions.
