Splunk Add-on for Atlassian JIRA Alerts: How to configure the add-on to enable proxy setup?

Does anyone know how to amend the Splunk Add-on for Atlassian JIRA Alerts to support outbound proxies? We have a public jira instance which can only be access via a proxy and need to fix the code to support this?

If you define the proxy in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/splunk-launch.conf on the search head, it will use that proxy by default after a Splunk restart.

splunk-launch.conf

NO_PROXY = 127.0.0.1
HTTP_PROXY = 1.2.3.4:9999
HTTPS_PROXY = 1.2.3.4:9999

You can also blacklist any destinations that it should not use a proxy for in the "NO_PROXY" section.

thanks for the answer as a work around however I believe it would be better to make the python scripts proxy aware? The app is quite old so not too sure if it is still under active development?

I'm having the same problem. My Splunk server lives in a network that can only leave via an outbound web proxy (squid). @gmelnik, @gmelnik_splunk, @zenmoto, @Anonymous, or @ziegfried - you are all contributors to the git code - are you able to confirm that this add-on is not compatible with the http_proxy setting?
