BrowserMob not working for a preprod proxy

I'm using Selenium for automation with C#. I'm currently running the automation against production together with BrowserMob to stop third party modals displaying whilst running the automation. This is working perfectly.

I now need to target pre-production which is handled by a proxy. I can confirm that when using the proxy address the automation launches the browser and hits the pre-production server as expected. I can confirm this because we have the server address as a html comment in the source code.

My problem is that the blacklist of third parties is then not working when targeting pre-production.

Can anyone help/ suggest how to resolve this please? Let me know if there's more information you need.

Many thanks,

C# Code example

ProxyServer = new Server(serverProxyPath, 6666);
ProxyServer.Start();
var httpClient = ProxyServer.CreateProxy();

httpClient.Blacklist(@".*thirdpartydomain.com.*", (int)HttpStatusCode.NotFound);

var proxy = new Proxy
{
   HttpProxy = "1.2.3.4:8080",
   SslProxy = "1.2.3.4:8080"
};

sketch to demonstrate the problem

In case of pre-prod proxy, how and where are you setting this pre-prod proxy? – Tarun Lalwani Oct 02 '17 at 22:22
This is handled by another team. I'll try and find out some information. Thanks, – Rachel Oct 03 '17 at 10:18
I use SwitchyOmega in Google Chrome to toggle the proxy. Does that answer your question? – Rachel Oct 03 '17 at 16:14
any ideas? Thanks – Rachel Oct 06 '17 at 13:02
I hope you are testing http and not https? else it may become a bit difficult – Tarun Lalwani Oct 06 '17 at 14:30
whys that? THanks, – Rachel Oct 09 '17 at 09:09
Because of certificate issuing. I checked and C# doesn't provide a ProxyChain method which Java does for BrowserMobProxy, so you will need to customize the C# browsermob proxy client source code – Tarun Lalwani Oct 09 '17 at 09:43
ok thank you. I'll open it up in dotpeek and give an update. Thanks, – Rachel Oct 09 '17 at 10:15
