Summary

Postman Interceptor helps you send requests which use browser cookies through the Postman app. It can also send headers which are normally restricted by Chrome but are critical for testing APIs. The Interceptor makes this process painless. Something that would have required a proxy earlier can now be achieved without any installation steps or extra configuration.

不小心升级了postman for windows,发现旧版本的postman interceptor连不上,被迫也升级了这个插件,然后发现新版postman for windows必须登录账号才能连接上,新版本插件在限定了只拦截某个网站的cookie的情况下,依然导致我打开其他网页的请求经常性的卡死,关掉插件一切正常。找了老电脑上面的插件与程序,回退了。
