How to Debug Smart TV Apps (Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, Android TV)
Summary: Include the 12KB ProxyCeptor SDK in your TV web application to intercept fetch and XHR traffic directly inside the web runtime with zero TV root cert installation.
Why This Rule Matters for Developers & QA
Installing custom CA certificates on consumer smart TVs like Samsung Tizen or LG webOS requires factory service modes or custom firmware. ProxyCeptor runs within the app context, bypassing cert requirements completely.
Step-by-Step Implementation Guide
1
Include the ProxyCeptor SDK Script
Add `<script src="https://proxyceptor.com/proxyceptor-sdk.js"></script>` to your TV app HTML template.
2
Initialize with Your API Key
Call `ProxyCeptor.init({ apiKey: "YOUR_KEY", enableProxy: true })` in your application bootloader.
3
Control Rules from Cloud Dashboard
Create and toggle rules on https://app.proxyceptor.com. Your TV app updates its interception behavior instantly in real time.
