Setting the external proxy which requires authentication for Postman

Question

I am setting up the native windows Postman and trying to run the "Request Header" api provided in Postman Echo collection. I get the following error. "Error: tunneling socket could not be established, statusCode=407" I can see in the postman console that it is picking up the correct proxy server from environment. My proxy server requires authentication, how do I provide credential information. I tried to start Postman using the following command but it did not help. postman.exe --proxy-server=userName:password@myproxy:8090

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately the proxy tab in Settings does not allow authenticated proxies. Entering proxy info in the format "userName:password@myproxy" will cause everything before the '@' symbol to be removed.
