Public facing app that uses a proxy?

RyanKelso

Do any of you have a public / external facing app that is using the proxy? If so, in general terms, how did you configure it for this? For example, I have an app deployed on IIS that I access internally using http://gisserver/webapp and it uses the proxy at http://gisserver/DotNet/proxy.ashx. But I'm trying to make it available at something like http://www.webapp.mydomain.com and I'm having some trouble with including the proxy in the mix.

I got some help from Esri that I am working on, but I was hoping to get any advice from somebody with practical experience with this.

Ryan,

The use of the proxy is controlled by the allowed referrers list in the proxy.config. You can use my site to monitor traffic as an example

Greetings Robert,

what does your proxy.config file look like? Can you provide a sample? I'm having difficulties accessing/viewing my web app on the external site...all I see is the loading screen and then a frowning face.

Thanks, Robert. Your site pretty much demonstrated exactly what I was wanting to see. I also forgot about (and didn't fully understand) the allowed referrers list, so thanks for mentioning that too.

Ok, thanks. I guess I was under the impression that the proxy would not be exposed externally. While trying to understand this, I was looking to find an example in somebody else's app where I could monitor the network activity and see a request made thru a proxy, and was not able to find an example of this.

Ryan,

Almost all my widget live preview sites use a proxy and definitely my main county site does. You need to use your external URL s in when setting up your app in WAB and when adding the serverUrls to your proxy.config. When adding the proxy url to your apps main config.json you need to use the external url to your proxy as well.
