Download Tool - support corporate proxy

[SeanAdams]

Hi there,

The download tool currently does not work if the user is behind a corporate proxy setup - and the only way to download web-content is using CURL.

This is a significant impediment because this prevents almost all corporate alteryx users from being able to access this capaibilty

Could you please look into using the proxy settings that the workstation uses to access the internet in a corp env?

thank you

Sean

Hello,

We have found this issue just now reported by a client. We have started working on it. Kindly let me know if there is more info around it anywhere.

Thanks

Some proxy enhancements were made for the 2022.2 FIPS Release and will also be in the upcoming 2022.3 GA Release, including enabling Proxy support with AMP Engine. 

Bypass proxy is supported only when using Manual proxy setup. As shown in the Proxy settings screen, if the user Downloads from ftp://abc.com/ and put host abc.com in bypass field, the download would bypass the proxy server.

Implemented as of 22.2-FIPS and 22.3 Designer releases! Thanks for the great ideas - keep 'em coming! 🤓
