I open this Feature request on the behave on a Customer:
Please add Custom Proxy / PAC support to Proxy website (Edge) (WebView2) so that WebView2 network traffic can be routed through a proxy configured in RDM, instead of being limited to System Proxy or No Proxy.
Context / Use case
I’m posting this on behalf of an enterprise customer with a restricted network:
- Windows servers/workstations do not have direct Internet access
- Outbound web access is allowed only via a controlled proxy (often with inspection / allowlists)
- Setting a system-wide proxy is problematic (can impact other apps/admin workflows), and PAC per host is not always manageable at scale
This becomes a blocker when RDM uses WebView2 (Edge) for authentication flows (e.g., Okta used with a Delinea integration), because WebView2 traffic cannot be forced through an RDM-defined proxy today.
Current behavior
- In RDM, Proxy website (Edge) only offers:
- The existing RDM “Custom Proxy” settings apply only to certain internal features (e.g., some website-related/internal requests), but do not apply to WebView2 (Edge).
- Result: If the environment requires a proxy to reach Okta/Delinea endpoints, the authentication/web flow fails unless Windows System Proxy is configured.
Expected behavior
Add a third mode (or equivalent) for Proxy website (Edge):
- Custom Proxy (host/port + optional auth) and/or
- PAC URL support
- Optional bypass/exceptions list (domains/IP ranges) so only required destinations go through the proxy
Ideally this could be configured:
- Globally (RDM application settings) and/or
- Per data source / integration (e.g., Delinea datasource) and/or
- Per entry / vault (advanced)
Why it matters (impact)
This limitation blocks upgrades/adoption in locked-down enterprise environments where:
- Okta is mandatory for SSO
- Web traffic must traverse a proxy
- System-wide proxy changes are undesirable or not feasible
Workarounds tried
- Configure Windows System Proxy (or PAC with exceptions) and set RDM WebView2 to Use System Proxy
- This can work, but it’s often not acceptable operationally (global impact, complexity, exceptions management).
Versions (example from the affected environment)
- RDM: 2025.2.x
- Devolutions Server: 2025.2.x
- (Exact versions available if needed.)
Thanks!
