@bbogdanov Is there any way to add http req/res interceptor in this ?

@vrkansagara Hi, what you are suggesting here doesn't solve what the issue in angular you shared has as a case. The suggestion you have just postpones getting the instance of the HttpClient as well as bringing and overhead cause on every execution of the get http() it will ask the DI to give you an instance.
