Can I see the responses to requests when capturing requests with Postman?

I have the proxy supported by Postman running. I'm using this to capture requests from integration tests. I can see the requests in the history tab, but request details do not include response data, such as http code, response body etc.

If I click send, i.e. repeat the request with Postman, then this data is displayed.

I'm really confused here, since Postman is the proxy and is able to capture the request and response both, why on earth it won't bother displaying the response data, and only display details of the request?

How do I display the response to captured requests from another process??

To provide further details: I'm using the proxy, not the interceptor because I'm making calls to localhost and interceptor won't capture those.

Here is what the UI looks like, with the giant question mark showing the empty response section :) The entries in the history tab are generated by integration tests making calls to a development server running on localhost.

If I repeat the particular (currently selected) request by clicking the send button, it'll display the json response happily.

Postman is the latest version (as of the date and time of this post) running under WSL2 with Ubuntu 20.04

Since version 8.9, Postman now allows you to capture responses along with requests.
