Proxy exceptions not documented

[t-h-oebb]

for us, AMA extensions try to also use the proxy for requests to localhost. As of May 2024, there is no documented way on how to add proxy exceptions. However, after much try and error I found a solution that seems to work:

xxx [ ~ ]$ cat proxy.json 
{
  "proxy": {
    "mode": "application",
    "address": "http://<proxy>",,
    "noProxy": "localhost,127.0.0.1", 
    "auth": false
  }
}
xxx [ ~ ]$

usage via --settings parameter:

az connectedmachine extension update \
    --name ChangeTracking-Linux \
    --machine-name$machine \
    --resource-group $rg \
    --settings proxy.json \
    --subscription $subscription
