Configure Proxy Server


I've installed the latest Team Explorer Everywhere (14.0.1) onto my machine, but am having issues configuring the Proxy server.

Previous versions to TE, installed a VS 2010 shell onto the machine, and I could either open it and configure it normally within there, or I could use the following command to configure it:

tf proxy /configure [url]

However, this version appears to just be a command line file, and it doesn't appear to accept the tf proxy command.

Looking at the help file, it looks like the individual commands do take a /proxy:[url] switch, but this means adding it to every call I wish to make.

Is there a way in the new Team Explorer Everywhere to configure a proxy server to be used on all calls?


Solution

  • The latest version of TEE doesn't permit a proxy being set in the same way that the TEE 2010 version does (i.e. via tf proxy /configure [url])

    Instead, this can either (as noted in the question) be indicated on each call by adding the /proxy [url] switch to the command, or by setting the TFSPROXY environment variable.

    Below is an example of how this is done via powershell:

    $env:TFSPROXY = "[url]"
