Certificate Setup

Vapor uses a local CA certificate to intercept HTTPS traffic. On first launch:

  1. Vapor generates a unique CA certificate
  2. You’ll be prompted to install it in your system trust store
  3. Follow the platform-specific instructions

macOS

The certificate is installed in the System Keychain. You may need to enter your password.

Windows

The certificate is added to the Windows certificate store. Accept the UAC prompt.

Linux

Manual installation may be required. See certificate troubleshooting.

Verify Installation

  1. Launch Vapor
  2. Configure your browser to use localhost:8080 as the HTTP proxy
  3. Visit any HTTPS website
  4. Check that requests appear in the Proxy view
