Hi everybody,
we are trying to use Filebeat's Azure module to extract data from Azure but we are unable to connect to proxy.
Filebeat (version 7.9) is installed on Windows Server 2008 in the internal network and to connect to Azure we must go through the proxy.
With Metricbeat it was enough to set the environment variable HTTPS\_PROXY, unfortunately with Filebeat it didn't work.
You can help us?
Thanks
Daniele

The Go module being used for the azure module doesn't currently support proxies. See [[Filebeat] HTTP(S) proxy support within module azureeventhub · Issue #26328 · elastic/beats · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/26328).
