Description

Description

I have to execute long-running processes (ABR video streaming sessions for example), which I later on analyse through scripting, from .HAR or Proxyman logs. The sessions can be several hours, sometimes even overnight.

I would like to be able to to have Proxyman auto-save selected traffic into HAR/logs, such that whenever a new request matches the current filters, it gets saved into the output file.

It's important that I'm able to do this based on filters I apply to all traffic being monitored, so that the export file doesn't grow too large too quickly and contain all sorts of irrelevant information.

Why this feature/change is important?

Currently, it is a manual process to select the logs I want in proxyman, and then export them to .HAR/Proxyman Log. If my computer crashes, or the Proxyman proxy stops working for any reason, I run the risk of losing all data.

Research direction

The issue does not identify files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the traffic-filtering and HAR/Proxyman export flows, then determine how matching requests could be persisted during capture. Done would mean filtered traffic is saved incrementally and remains available if the computer crashes or the proxy stops.
