Use internal proxy with the LSEG Data Library for .Net

Hello.

I'm working on subscribing to real-time prices through websocket. I'm currently using the LSEG Data Library for .Net and it is working great on my workstation, but in our deployed environments there is a requirement to use an internal proxy for all communication to the outside.

Is it possible to configure an internal proxy when using the LSEG Data Library for .Net?

Also is it possible to use authentication V1 with the Real-Time SDK for C#? Or is it limited to V2?

Hello @KaareDB

I can answer on the RTSDK C# question. The RTSDK C# (EMA and ETA APIs) supports the V2 only.

The V2 has a lot of benefits over V1 such as longer token expiration time, supports up to 5 sessions per 1 authentication token (see more detail on the https://developers.lseg.com/en/article-catalog/article/how-to-setup-amazon-ec2-instance-for-rto article).

Please wait for my colleagues to help you with another question about the Data Library C# Proxy.

Hello @KaareDB

I am contacting the LSEG Data Library team regarding the proxy question. I will give you more updates as soon as I get news from the team.

Hello @KaareDB

I got an update from the team. The library does not provide any configurable parameters/variables to set the API's proxy. However, you can use the standard system like the following system environment variables to set the traffic go through the user-defined proxy.

HTTP_PROXY
HTTPS_PROXY
