Hi,

I have bunch of API request which needs to be replayed by mitmproxy.  
I’m trying to exclude request body from the server replay request matching by utilizing server\_replay\_ignore\_content option:  
I am giving the following command for replay

mitmproxy --set server\_replay\_ignore\_content=true -S filename

The problem is all my API requests are going to actual backend instead of replaying the mitm file.

Am I using the command in correct way? Can you please help me

Thanks,  
Rohini
