On vscode web interfaces, clicking almost on anything is trying to open a browser link

Is there an existing issue for this?

Describe the Issue

When working inside a browser window (like when running inside a GitHub CodeSpace), everytime I click on the sidebar menu in the postman extension, it tries to open an external browser tab with a specific url while opening a new tab in vscode as well

It can be changing the request type from a New HTTP Request to WebSocket, or clicking anywhere inside a collection.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Open a GitHub CodeSpace (I would guess this would have the same bug for things like coder)
2. Install the Postman vscode extension
3. Create a new collection and try adding a new API call
4. Or change the New HTTP Request to WebSocket

Codespace Devcontainer config:

• Linux (FROM node:20-slim)

Postman Version

v1.3.0

Additional Context?

this is the devcontainer definition folder if it helps you investigate this: https://github.com/Kibibit/achievibit-v3/tree/main/.devcontainer

Having a postman instance for a GitHub CodeSpace inside of the actual instance is amazing. The extension is still functional, but the new tab popup is annoying.

Would love to see this get fixed.

Any more information you need for me, let me know

@thatkookooguy As of now, we don't support VSCode Web/Codespaces. We will take this up once we plan to support it.
