Separate proxy setting for postman cloud sync service #8752

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I can't reach cloud sync service without a proxy，the APP syncs failed and keep retry, CPU usage becomes very high.

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. When request POSTMAN cloud service, the APP can use one proxy setting
  2. When request other service, use no proxy or another proxy.

Hey @shuaiyy !

Are you using the app on a network behind a proxy? In this case, the app will use your system proxy settings by default for connecting to Postman sync. Please make sure that you have the proxy settings set in your system settings.

If the proxy server requires authentication, you can set that under Settings -> Proxy -> Default Proxy Configuration - image

Hi，thanks for reply. I didn't use/need any proxy to test my own API. I'm in China, just cannot reach Cloud Sync Service, and seems that Postman retry syncing a lot. When I set a proxy which can bypass firewall, sync success and CPU uasage become low. I didn't like this below, i have to configure my test api without using the proxy.

what I Hope is one of the two：

  1. stop sync trying when failed, and save my CPUs.
  2. sync service can have it's own proxy
