Use System Proxy

[emelendez89]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Ex. I'm always frustrated when I have to deal with multiple proxies, the company I work for have this .pac (proxy autoconfig file) which is actually a Javascript file that Windows use to select the proxy.

Describe the solution you'd like
Either a radio button that select from specific proxy (textboxes as now it is) or pick the one used by the system (Same as Postman)

Describe alternatives you've considered
You can also do it the same way as Windows10 where you can enter the URL to fetch the pac file and run it before the request to select the proxy according to the PAC file.

Additional context
I hope this makes sense.

Picking proxy settings from system will make usage of insomnia much easier for me.

For now I have to manually enter proxy settings every time

Please don't make this stale. This feature would be very helpful.

[phsc84]

Fully agree. This feature would be a quick win and should not be made stale.

[ferdiazgonzalez]

Another interested party here. Please, bring this feature to life.

[phsc84]

This feature would have a great impact on the user experience as it would avoid login problems such as the one reported in #7969 .

We are looking into this, let's see if we can get this shipped in v10.1

Hey 👋 everyone!
We have an update in v10.1.0-beta where Insomnia now respects the system Proxy config if it's there.
Please try the latest beta and let us know if it works as expected for you!

[phsc84]

I can confirm, that it perfectly works as expected (also mentioned it here). This is a great thing as it will massively improve the first impression of Insomnia for new enterprise users and it will save you some login issues in the future. Thanks a lot!

Great to hear, this will be available within ~2 weeks in Insomnia 10.1.
