Hi everyone! I'm trying to add an AI connector and I'm running into a connection problem because the connector can't reach the AI solution as it needs to pass through our proxy. Is there a way to add a proxy configuration for the AI connector?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

There is a workaround for the AI Assistant Connectors to use `xpack.actions.proxyUrl`

> **[Alerting and action settings in Kibana | Kibana](https://www.elastic.co/docs/reference/kibana/configuration-reference/alerting-settings)**

You can use this `xpack.actions.proxyUrl` setting to Connect to say Azure OpenAI for the AI Assistants through a proxy.

There is not an official way so this is sorta a workaround because this forces all outbound Kibana Connections through the Actions Proxy.

You can also use it in conjunction with xpack.actions.proxyOnlyHosts in case you don't want to proxy everything.
