postman-app-support Add support to set proxy details from the script

Please read through the guidelines before creating a new issue.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It is frustrating when dealing with proxies if where we have a couple of different ones we use, and not all requests are required to use them.

Describe the solution you'd like The ability to set the proxy settings from environment variables or at least least change them on the fly from test scripts / pre-request scripts along with ability to turn them on/off

Describe alternatives you've considered Manually turning them on / off for the request - Which makes it incompatible with the test runner.

Additional context Being able to it something like below would be perfect, as it could be done on a per collection or a per request basis as needed and could pull from either global or environment variables to set

Any time frame on when this will be done? We've ran into a bunch of problems with test worldpay APIs needing a certain proxy to authenticate and another calls need a separate one. Currently no way around this when running through newman so was hoping to be able to do it at a script level.

Hi, this feature would be very useful. Example I have is working remotely I have a collection with multiple requests but I have to go into the settings and manually turn the proxy on or off as required for the individual requests. I should be able to automate this task in a pre-request script.

Is this feature in active development?

I'm also looking for this feature. Some APIs that I call require proxy, some APIs don't require, I have to constantly enable/disable proxy in settings, which is frustrating. Also I cannot automate such requests, I cannot connect output of one request to the input of another request and make them runnable together as a single one, because one request requires proxy and another requires absence of proxy.
