Hey folks, has anyone tried to inspect ngrok traffic before? The ngrok config file has the option to include root CAs, which I have pointed to the usual nscacert_combined.pem but it still doesn't seem to work...any thoughts welcome!

I wonder if adding an http_proxy env variable might help (or adding this to the config file)

Thanks aramachandran but I don't know if this will help with SSL decryption - as that is the real cause of the error here?

Did you ever get this one sorted out? Trying to get ngrok working on macOS for our users and hitting a wall at the moment.

 

They tried setting the root_cas global option to "host" and also to the direct location of the nscacert.pem file but that didn't work:

Error:

Session Status reconnecting (failed to send authentication request: session closed).

Afraid not - still no resolution I've been able to find unfortunately.
