Hi,

I've used the httpfetcher in my 2014 WB, and it had proxy setting, and the script worked perfectly through the proxy.

When i upgraded it with the new htppcaller in 2016.1, that option has disappeared and script no longer working.

We have a few of these, and none seems to work

please suggest a way with proxy (don't want to use the fme option, because it is not a good way of implementing proxy)

I think FME should be more proxy aware

Rudy

HTTPCaller needs proxy setting, because sometimes you need to specify a proxy just for a workspace, not system-wide.

I imagine we made it a system setting because then you don't need to set it multiple times within the same workspace. But I see your point. If you think it's a big issue for you, please do contact our support team (safe.com/support) and make the suggestion, or post it as an idea on this site (Click the New Idea button above-right).
