title: Inspect HTTPS traffic from SWF files
body: <p>Is there a way to inspect HTTPS traffic from Flex applications compiled to SWF files?</p>
  
  <p>I'm trying to use Fiddler for this, have added <code>DO_NOT_TRUST_FiddlerRoot</code> to my <em>Trusted Root Certification Authorities</em> so my IE now can access other HTML sites that would normally complain about untrusted certificate. However, the HTTPS traffic from the SWF file still doesn't appear in Fiddler and, in fact, the Flex app wouldn't work (HTTPS with a self-signed certificate is not supported by Flex apps I believe). Is there a way around it?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Update</strong>: To be clear, I am interested in the traffic between the SWF file running under Flash Player and the server (typically, Flex components like HTTPService will be used for this). The SWF file itself can be served via HTTP or HTTPS, it doesn't really matter.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Clarification 2</strong>: Don't assume that the source code is available for the SWF file. If it was, Flash Builder 4's Network Monitor could be used.</p>
  
  <p>(I am assessing possible security risks for my client just to be clear about my intentions.)</p>
