Pros
- Helps capture API faults aiding front-end teams in debugging.
- Useful replacement for browser's standard inspect element to capture API calls.
- Works great when properly enabled through Postman desktop app and account sign-in.
- Supports capturing network traffic for API testing and debugging.
- Can synchronize cookies via Interceptor after reinstallation.
Cons
- Often fails to stop capturing requests, causing continuous and uncontrollable capture.
- Regular issues with 'Interceptor disconnected' especially on macOS and after updates.
- Requires mandatory Postman account registration and signing in, which some users find restrictive.
- 'Open in Postman' link frequently doesn't work, making captured data inaccessible.
- Poor documentation leading to confusion especially regarding installation of interceptor bridge on macOS.

Extension safety
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk
impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of
damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your
personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they
do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Postman Interceptor requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious.
This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on
Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been
around, and other signals about the
Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change
as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always
exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.
Postman Interceptor has earned a good reputation and can be trusted.
