How do you intercept burps?
In Burp, go to the “Proxy” > “Intercept” tab, and ensure that interception is on (if the button says “Intercept is off” then click it to toggle the interception status). In your browser, visit any URL. The browser will send a request but will then be stuck waiting for a response.

Proxies like the one included in Burp Suite are designed for traffic interception. This allows the owner of the proxy to view, modify and drop packets passing through the proxy.
