These proxy files support:

• Accessing cross domain resources
• Requests that exceed 2048 characters
• Accessing resources secured with token based authentication.
• OAuth 2.0 app logins.
• Enabling logging
• Both resource and referer based rate limiting

• Download and unzip the .zip file or clone the repository. You can download a released version (recommended) or the most recent daily build.
• Follow the instructions in the readme file in the folder of the proxy you want to install (DotNet, Java, PHP) for installation instructions.

• DotNet: .NET version of the proxy
  • proxy.ashx
  • proxy.config
  • README.md
• Java: Java version of the proxy
  • proxy.jsp
  • WEB-INF/classes/proxy.config
  • README.md
• PHP: PHP version of the proxy
  • proxy.php
  • proxy.config
  • README.md

##Troubleshooting

• Watch the web requests being handled by the proxy to ensure that the proxy and the web resource locations are correct and properly configured in the application. Use something like Fiddler or developer tools like Network panel in Chrome Developer Tools.

• ArcGIS API for JavaScript

• Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS (Developer Edition)

• Esri Leaflet

• Setting up a Proxy blog

All three proxies respect the XML configuration properties listed below.

• Use the ProxyConfig tag to specify the following proxy level settings.
  • mustMatch="true" : When true only the sites listed using serverUrl will be proxied. Set to false to proxy any site, which can be useful in testing. However, we recommend setting it to "true" for production sites.
  • allowedReferers="http://server.com/app1,http://server.com/app2" : A comma-separated list of referer URLs. Only requests coming from referers in the list will be proxied. See Esri#282 for detailed usage.
  • logFile="proxylog.txt" : When a logFile is specified, the proxy will log messages to this file.
• Add a new <serverUrl> entry for each service that will use the proxy. The proxy.config allows you to use the serverUrl tag to specify one or more ArcGIS Server services that the proxy will forward requests to. The serverUrl tag has the following attributes:
  • url: Location of the ArcGIS Server service (or other URL) to proxy. Specify either the specific URL or the root (in which case you should set matchAll="false").
  • matchAll="true": When true all requests that begin with the specified URL are forwarded. Otherwise, the URL requested must match exactly.
  • username: Username to use when requesting a token - if needed for ArcGIS Server token based authentication.
  • password: Password to use when requesting a token - if needed for ArcGIS Server token based authentication.
  • tokenServiceUri: If username and password are specified, the proxy will use the supplied token service uri to request a token. If this value is left blank, the proxy will request a token URL from the ArcGIS server.
  • domain: The Windows domain to use with username/password when using Windows Authentication. Only applies to DotNet proxy.
  • clientId. Used with clientSecret for OAuth authentication to obtain a token - if needed for OAuth 2.0 authentication. NOTE: If used to access hosted services, the service(s) must be owned by the user accessing it, (with the exception of credit-based esri services, e.g. routing, geoenrichment, etc.)
  • clientSecret: Used with clientId for OAuth authentication to obtain a token - if needed for OAuth 2.0 authentication.
  • oauth2Endpoint: When using OAuth 2.0 authentication specify the portal specific OAuth 2.0 authentication endpoint. The default value is https://www.arcgis.com/sharing/oauth2/.
  • accessToken: OAuth2 access token to use instead of on-demand access-token generation using clientId & clientSecret. Only applies to DotNet proxy.
  • rateLimit: The maximum number of requests with a particular referer over the specified rateLimitPeriod.
  • rateLimitPeriod: The time period (in minutes) within which the specified number of requests (rate_limit) sent with a particular referer will be tracked. The default value is 60 (one hour).
  • hostRedirect: The real URL to use instead of the "alias" one provided in the url property and that should be redirected. Example: <serverUrl url="http://fakedomain" hostRedirect="http://172.16.85.2"/>.

Note: Refresh the proxy application after updates to the proxy.config have been made.

Example of proxy using application credentials and limiting requests to 10/minute

<serverUrl url="http://route.arcgis.com"
    clientId="6Xo1d-example-9Kn2"
    clientSecret="5a5d50-example-c867b6efcf969bdcc6a2"
    rateLimit="600"
    rateLimitPeriod="60"
    matchAll="true">
</serverUrl>

Example of a tag for a resource which does not require authentication

<serverUrl url="http://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services"
    matchAll="true">
</serverUrl>

• See the README.md file in the folder of the proxy you want to install for platform specific requirements.
