I was able to install Charles Proxy 3 (sudo apt install charles-proxy3) but unable to find the package for 4.

Answer

Install GPG public key

wget -q -O - https://www.charlesproxy.com/packages/apt/PublicKey | sudo apt-key add -

Add repo to your sources -

sudo sh -c 'echo deb https://www.charlesproxy.com/packages/apt/ charles-proxy main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/charles.list'

update sources and install charles

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install charles-proxy

The package creates a "charles" command in /usr/bin, and adds Charles in your application menus in your window manager.
