@kuba-orlik Here is how I reproduced this issue using WebCM:

Steps to reproduce :

1: Setup webcm.config.ts where target is http://localhost:3002 (this is local page depicting my website which has a single button to send track event on click )

2. Add name of component (name should match with repo name of component impact-radius . This will automatically download and build impact-radius component which you can see at directory webcm/components/impact-radius

export default {
  components: [
    {
      name: 'demo',
      permissions: [
        'access_client_kv',
        'provide_server_functionality',
        'provide_widget',
        'serve_static_files',
        'client_network_requests',
      ],
    },
    {
      name: 'impact-radius',
      settings: {  accountId: "xxxxxxxxxx", 
      td: 'https://airalo.pxf.io/XYZ',
      id: '1234',
      iw: '10',
      },
      permissions: [
        'access_client_kv',
        'provide_server_functionality',
        'provide_widget',
        'serve_static_files',
        'client_network_requests',
      ],
    },
  ],
  target: 'http://localhost:3002',
  hostname: 'localhost',
  trackPath: '/webcm/track',
  ecommerceEventsPath: '/webcm/ecommerce',
  clientEventsPath: '/webcm/system',
  port: 8080
}

3. run webCM with command npm run dev
4. You will see following logs [impact radius is initialised]

   
   FOUND LOCAL MC: /Users/ashish/webcm/components/impact-radius/dist/index.js
   :: Initialising component impact-radius

WebCM, version 0.10.6

🚀 WebCM is now proxying http://localhost:3002 at http://localhost:8080

5. Use `test page` and customise the button `Click me` to send track event  button as follows
    <button onclick="webcm.track('identify')" id="sendEvent">Click me</button><br>
6. Start `test page` on 3002 port
7. Open http://localhost:8080/ on browser , webCM is a proxy which will inject its script on http://localhost:3002 page
8. You will see following request getting executed when pressed button Click me to send event! (I converted it in CURL)

curl 'https://airalo.pxf.io/XYZ/cur/1234?custid=&oid=&_ir=U25%257C304f71fd-f417-49d8-87d2-596b90ec42fb%257C1708089296926' \ -X 'POST' \ -H 'authority: airalo.pxf.io' \ -H 'accept: /' \ -H 'accept-language: en-GB,en;q=0.9' \ -H 'content-length: 0' \ -H 'origin: http://localhost:8080' \ -H 'referer: http://localhost:8080/' \ -H 'sec-ch-ua: "Not A(Brand";v="99", "Google Chrome";v="121", "Chromium";v="121"' \ -H 'sec-ch-ua-mobile: ?0' \ -H 'sec-ch-ua-platform: "macOS"' \ -H 'sec-fetch-dest: empty' \ -H 'sec-fetch-mode: cors' \ -H 'sec-fetch-site: cross-site' \ -H 'user-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36' \ --compressed
