Watching HTTP Traffic from n8n with mitmproxy

For anyone looking for a (free, and somewhat quick) way to set up a proxy to “snoop” and view the details of http/s requests sent out to various destinations from n8n, I posted a short guide to setting up mitmproxy for this purpose on dev.to titled Watching HTTP Traffic from n8n with mitmproxy

Hi @hubschrauber,

That’s a very interesting way to monitor any http request done from HttpRequest to external services without changing any workflow :call_me_hand:

Could we link your entry in n8nhackers.com blog with your solution?

Sure. The more exposure the better. It took a little time to get through a few of the issues running mitmproxy in docker compose, so if it can save someone that headache, I’m all for it.
