You can skip and start the next step if you've done this step.

2. Install Proxyman CA to all Java Key Stores

  • Certificate Menu -> Install Certificate on Java VMs -> Run Scripts

  • The script will attempt to find the Key Store location from JAVA_HOME, SDKHOME, or from $(/usr/libexec/java_home) environment and install the CA Certificate if possible

You can find the script at /Applications/Proxyman.app/Contents/Frameworks/ProxymanCore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/install-certificates-java.sh

The script might require permission for EventKit because Proxyman triggers the script by Apple Script in order to install it under admin permission.
