Using a proxy server when connecting to a cloud license server
Hi,
How do we (is it possible to) configure our application - which is a desktop application - to use a local proxy server when communicating with an FNO cloud license server?
Our application is a Java application and we use a combination of the licensing web services (e.g. we use the health and features end points) and capability request.
Examples
For features end point we use:
https://example.compliance.flexnetoperations.com/api/1.0/instances/PPPPPPPPPP/features
For health end point we use:
https://example.compliance.flexnetoperations.com/api/1.0/instances/PPPPPPPPPP/health
For submitting a capability request we use:
https://example.compliance.flexnetoperations.com/instances/PPPPPPPPPP/request
We use FNO cloud instance.
Thanks.

Re: Using a proxy server when connecting to a cloud license server
Hi @ageorge ,
In the JavaXT User Guide there is mention of configuring the capabilityrequest example to use a proxy server:
For the REST APIs I'd imagine the proxy server would need to be configured to forward to the requests to the appropriate endpoint on a given port.
Thanks,
Jim

Re: Using a proxy server when connecting to a cloud license server
Hi @jberthold ,
Thanks for the response.
I saw the entry in the JavaXT and it says "proxy server (which has been set up to communicate with the back-office server)".
In that case, will the set up to communicate with the back-office server be any different from the configuration you imagine needs to be done on the proxy server for the REST APIs?

Hi @ageorge ,
Sorry but I don't have any experience configuring proxy servers so I don't know for sure ...
Thx,
Jim
