I know you can manually create a GET/POST/PUT from the ui, but I was wondering if it’s possible via script. I’d like to take information from a previous GET response and use it to create a POST from scratch.

The API for this is terrible at the moment, but you can use the FlowMaster’s `create_request` and `replay_request` functions to do just that (documentation is the source, sorry - make sure to select the right version when reading through it).

I opened an issue foor this: [https://github.com/mitmproxy/mitmproxy/issues/1473](https://github.com/mitmproxy/mitmproxy/issues/1473)

Has there been any progress with this? As it stands right now, I can’t even get the example dup\_and\_replay script to work in 0.18.2.
