Import / Export

Import and export traffic in Proxyman: open Proxyman Log, HAR and Charles files, and export requests as Proxyman Log, HAR, CSV or Postman Collection.

1. Import​

Proxyman can open traffic log files from Proxyman, Charles Proxy, and other apps that export HAR files.

  • Proxyman Log: Built-in Proxyman Log that contains all Requests and Responses information.
  • Proxyman Session: Entire working session files that are exported from the Proxyman app.
  • HAR 1.2 (HTTP Archive): Useful for moving HTTP requests and responses between apps to inspect later. Charles, Google Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and other network analyzer apps are fully supported.
  • Charles Proxy Log: Charles log exported from the Charles Proxy app. The file extension is chls.
  • Charles Proxy Log for iOS (Proxyman 2.30.0+): The file extension is chlsj.

If you would like to save an entire working session, please read the Save Session page.

2. Export​

You can export:

  • A list of selected requests or responses.
  • All traffic from a specific client, domain node, or remote device.
  • An entire working session.
  • The Body or Raw content of a request or response.

Export formats:

  • Proxyman Log or Proxyman Session
  • HAR (HTTP Archive)
  • CSV File: Export selected requests as a CSV file (Proxyman 2.29.0+)
  • Postman Collection 2

It's useful to export a buggy request that you can investigate later or send to your QA team.

3. Import & Export by Command Line​

Proxyman offers a command line tool that lets you import and export from a bash script.
