How to configure proxy on Config files/Webhook.config

Hi Team,

Just wanted to ask what’s the best way to configure proxy settings on orchestrator config files. I’ll try to explain what im trying to do as best i can

Due to our environment setup i would need to use proxy to be able to hit a URL. What i’m basically trying to achieve is send a webhook notification via our Orchestrator to Microsoft teams. The problem im having is when i start any activities in our Orchestrator, it doesn’t hit the powerautomate endpoint and after a bit of digging around and troubleshooting we found out this is due to our Orchestrator server setup the way it is and the only way to bypass is to use proxy.

I’ve already created a powerautomate code to parse the information into a microsoft teams acceptable format - i just need the webhook to hit that URL so it can post into Teams.

Any help would be great!

Thanks!

Brian

Hi Brian (@bpgacad) ,

I am facing the same issue. I tried multiple things but never got WebHooks to go through a proxy. Could you find a solution yet?

I installed https://mitmproxy.org/ on port 8080 to reqeuests going through the proxy right away.

First I only set the windows default system proxy settings with no effect

Next I set values in Orchestrator and WebHooks web.config
“C:\Program Files (x86)\UiPath\Orchestrator\web.config”

“C:\Program Files (x86)\UiPath\Orchestrator\Webhooks\web.config”

Still no effect.
Then I tried applying the settings as described here
http://vbrainstorm.com/configuring-system-wide-proxy-for-net-web-applications-including-sharepoint/

32-Bit

64-Bit

and winhttp

But still no effect.
Does anybody else have an idea where to configure webhooks to go through a proxy?

@cornelius.nowald @bpgacad were you able to resolve this issue with webhooks and internet proxy server?
