Configuring Proxy Settings
A proxy or a proxy server is an intermediary agent between your device and the internet. It serves as a hub through which internet requests are processed. Proxy servers can be used to improve the security of your network, as they can provide additional encryption services for your data and can be configured to block access to malicious websites.
Even if Task Capture can be used offline, for the below cases an Internet connection is required:
Depending on the Task Capture installation status there are two ways to set up the proxy:
To configure the proxy for a Task Capture instance that is already installed follow the below steps:
- Close all Task Capture instances.
- Create a
proxy.jsonfile with the following structure:host: "IA", // where "IA" is the IP address of your proxy deviceport: "PN", // where PN is the desired port numberusername: "UN", // where "UN" is the desired usernamepassword: "PW", // where "PW" is the desired password -
Based on the installation type you chose, add the newly created file to the corresponding folders:
- EXE installation:
%appdata%/Task Capture/UiPath Task Capture/Proxy/ - MSI installation:

- EXE installation:
You can configure the proxy settings during Task Capture installation only if the MSI installer is used.
