What the settings menu holds#

The gear icon on the recording toolbar opens the menu that controls how the proxy runs, plus the longer upstream proxy, DNS, and certificate dialogs.

The gear icon on the right of the recording toolbar opens the settings menu. It controls how the proxy runs and gives access to the longer dialogs (upstream proxy, DNS spoofing, certificates).

The settings popover with port, interception toggles, response delay, export entries, and links to upstream proxy, DNS spoofing, and certificates

Every control in the menu#

When settings are read-only#

Most of the toggles are unavailable while a recording runs. To change the port or HTTPS interception, stop the recording first. You can open upstream proxy, DNS spoofing, and the certificate dialog at any time.

What a static HAR file hides#

When the workspace holds a static HAR file, the menu hides the recording-related settings: port, interception toggles, response delay, upstream proxy, and DNS spoofing. These settings have nothing to act on. Export and certificate options stay available.
