Overview
In order to use LiveConnect, you will need to configure the LiveConnect Proxy through a browser extension or by changing the proxy settings on your device.
This guide shows how to change the proxy settings on an Android device.
Note: Android apps for the Nougat OS or higher (7.0+) need special setup before the certificate instructions here will work. See Preparing Apps with Android Nougat (7.0) and Above for details.
Configuration
In a browser on your computer, access LiveConnect and select an existing Configuration (or create a new one).
Click Start New Session. After about 30 seconds, an HTTP Proxy and HTTP Port number will be generated. You'll need to reference this in the next few steps.
Note: The HTTP Proxy will not change, but the HTTP Port number will change each session.
Open the Settings app on your Android device and select Network & internet.
Select the cog icon next to your current Wi-Fi connection.
Select the pencil icon in the top right corner to edit the network settings.
Click the drop-down arrow next to "Advanced options".
From the Proxy dropdown and select Manual.
Set the "Proxy hostname" and "Proxy port" to the HTTP Proxy IP Address and HTTP Port number indicated on the New Session page in the LiveConnect interface that you generated earlier. Ignore other optional settings. Tap Save.
The proxy setup is now complete.
After you click Start Recording in the LiveConnect interface, you can now open the app you want to test on your Android device and analyze the Tags in LiveConnect.
When you are done recording, return to the Settings app on your Android device, select Network & internet, select the cog icon next to your current Wi-fi network, select the pencil icon in the top right, open the Advanced options dropdown, and switch the Proxy dropdown back to None. Finally, tap Save.
Note: If you skip this important step, you will likely have trouble connecting to the internet on your Android device.
