# UseSystemProxy

A Boolean value that specifies whether to obtain details about your HTTP proxy from the system. On Windows, the connector reads the proxy settings configured through Internet Explorer or the Windows Control Panel. On Linux, the connector reads the proxy settings from environment variables such as `HTTP_PROXY` and `HTTPS_PROXY`.

You can set this parameter to `TRUE` instead of setting ProxyHost, ProxyPort, ProxyUsername, and ProxyPassword.

If you set this parameter to `TRUE` you must remove the parameters `ProxyHost`, `ProxyPort`, `ProxyUsername`, and `ProxyPassword` from the task configuration.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | TaskName or FetchTasks
Example: | `UseSystemProxy=TRUE`
