How to change response body with Charles?


I am using Charles (http://www.charlesproxy.com) to debug my HTTP requests and now I run into an issue where I am receiving json response which I need to edit to see how my app behaves.

I was looking at Rewrite option but can't really figure out how to change it. Ideal would be to load whole response from disk.

Any ideas how to accomplish this? Thank you.


Solution

  • The Map Local tool is probably what you're looking for. Access via menu Tools | Map Local.... Note, you may need a corresponding rewrite rule (Tools | Rewrite...) to ensure the mime type of your response served from disk and the type your application is expecting. But recent versions of Charles may set the type automatically.
