Proxy for Cloud Sync

[jose-pr]

Is there a way to setup a http proxy for a http cloud sync task? It looks like it uses rclone which would require setting the http_proxy env var but not idea how to setup this for the task or the credential.

It might be better to explain the high level problem you are having... then seek advice on how to solve.

I want to sync a HTTP source with a Cloud Sync Task. The webpage needs the use of a proxy to access. That would require the Cloud Sync Task to be able to use a http proxy which is possible for rclone by setting the HTTP(S)_PROXY/http(s)_proxy env vars when calling the command.

It's not obvious why you are doing this.... is it for personal or business use case.. is this an experiment or a mandatory security need?

Creating a local mirror of some repos that are only available through http/s for local use, as the remote connection is slow and also through a proxy. Got around it by running my own python script and not using Cloud Sync but it is a shame as more custom scripts to take care of. Currently personal but if it works fine could use for business.
