Using soap monitor to capture request/responses sent to a webservice via proxy

Hello,

Try using http tunnel for, since in global settings you can enter proxy local or external. Http tunnel should use proxy from settings to send request. Set end point to ws end point you are testing, and send request to http tunnel( "http://localhost:" ). So, in the end it should be like : soapUI -> tunnel -> (via proxy ) -> to ws server.

Let me know does it helps,

Hi Robert,

Thank you for your prompt reply. I did try setting global proxy but requests from soap monitor do not go via proxy. In fact the requests get intercepted by proxy first and then are forwarded to tunnel. I also tried double soap monitor config where I used "excludes" under global proxy settings to filter requests coming from first soap monitor so that requests from first soap monitor go directly to second soap monitor and perhaps second soap monitor would send requests to proxy and then to external endpoint but that did not work either.

All in all anything coming out of soap monitor is not going via proxy defined in global settings.

Any further ideas?

Hello,

I checked again and there was some error regarding this, it is fixed now so get nightly-build ( http://www.eviware.com/nightly-builds/ ). To set up everything do like this:

1. set a proxy in global settings, host and port and exclude localhost.
2. set a http tunnel.
3. send a request trough http tunnel.

validation of request going to tunnel -> proxy -> server and back should be visible in header.

Hope this helps, let me know
robert

Thanks, Robert. I shall try this and let you know.

Thanks, Robert. I tried this on Oct 9th nightly build for Mac and it works great !
