# Add a proxy in Devolutions Server

Add a proxy in Devolutions Server by editing the web.config file to set the http\_proxy and https\_proxy environment variables for the application.

To add a proxy in Devolutions Server, you need to add a few command lines to the **web.config** file.

1. Locate and open the **web.config** file. Its default location is **C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dvls\web.config**.
2. In the file, locate the `<environmentVariables>` and `</environmentVariables>` tags.
3. Add the following code between them, replacing the values with your information:

   ```
   <environmentVariables>
     <environmentVariable name="ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT" value="Production" />
     <environmentVariable name="http_proxy" value="http://proxy:port" />
     <environmentVariable name="https_proxy" value="http://proxy:port" />
   </environmentVariables>
   ```

{% endhint %}

4\. Save and close the file.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/server/knowledge-base/how-to-articles/add-a-proxy-in-devolutions-server.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
