Jamf Trust can be used with any proxy. By following these steps, you can ensure that all Windows client requests are sent via your authenticated proxy.
Note:

Jamf recommends that you configure proxy support before installing the app, as the app reads the file once during bootup. If you configure proxy support after installing Jamf Trust, then you must restart the app to pick up the new data.

  1. Create a file named proxy.json using the following template:
    {
    "PacFileURL": "http://remote.location/proxyPacFile.dat",
    "credentials": {
        "username": "proxy.username",
        "password": "someP4ssw0rd$$"
    }
}
  2. Save the proxy.json file to the data folder: C:\ProgramData\JamfTrust\Data

    The full path becomes C:\ProgramData\JamfTrust\Data\proxy.json

  3. If it was installed previously, restart Jamf Trust.
