Proxy Configuration Capability [💡 Feature Request]:

gurmeetsidhu opened this issue · 2 comments

What's the Problem?

Currently not able to connect to Assistant due to corporate VPN (unsure if this is the case with commercial VPN Offerings).

Using assistant requires turning off VPN.

What's your solution or idea?

Settings Section for adding/configuring HTTP/HTTPS proxy settings.

Alternatives Considered

Tried to assign global proxy setting to NVM but wasn't able to get this to work. Running without VPN for extended periods of time is frustrating.

Is this something that is possible? I was just curious as I have run into this issue with a lot of other Smart Home applications due to the nature of how GA is setup in the background but it's not been feasible as its not going through Google Cloud (Wifi-local issues).

I guess so. I never saw proxy settings in the app, but if you can code well, you could make a neat and perfect implementation of proxy settings, like on browsers.
