Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ProxymanApp/Proxyman/issues/1584

Description

I am following this page here.https://docs.proxyman.io/debug-devices/android-device/automatic-script-for-android-emulator

When I get to this step here, I do not see Proxyman app available to select.

I have tried to restart my computer multiple times.

Proxyman requires Automation Permission in order to execute the automation script by AppleScript. Please consider granting Proxyman app in System Preference -> Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> Automation -> Allow Proxyman app.

Current Behavior

Download Proxyman
Go to System Settings --> Privacy & Security --> Automation ---> Proxyman app should be here but its not
What I do see iTerm and Terminal ---> System Events and Google Chrome

Expected Behavior

Like the docs state I should see Proxyman app after I select Automation

Environment

App version: e.g Proxyman 4.5.0
macOS version: Ventura 13.2.1 Apple M1 Pro

It seems that you've figured it out 👍

@Camus1859 if you run the Emulator Script for the first time, the OS will ask your permission. Then, you can grant it and it will appear in the Automation script.

Some users don't allow it, so it instructs the user to enable it in the Privacy -> Automation tab.
