Can the BumbleRumble be connected in a proxy environment?

I am trying the following sample.

https://github.com/PlayFab/PlayFab-Samples/tree/master/Samples/All/BumbleRumble

I was able to build, connect and play in a normal network environment.

However, I could not connect in a environment where only a http proxy could be used for connection.

I want to use Playfab Party in a proxy environment.

Does Playfab Party support proxy?

As I understand it, both the proxy servers and the clients are the same in the eye of PlayFab Party, which are just network endpoints where requests are made from. Therefore, It’s your job to have your app support proxy servers:

  1. Being able to config and build the connection between the client and the proxy server.
  2. And have the client receive the data returned by PlayFab Party from the proxy server.

Thank you for your answer.

In my proxy environment, only ports 80 and 443 are allowed and UDP connection is not allowed.
I am afraid that PlayFab Party may not be able to use it in such an environment because of UDP connection.

In such an environment, can I use only 443 TCP connection and connection well through a proxy?

Theoretically speaking, TCP on 443 should work because PlayFab Services runs on HTTP(s) which utilizes TCP.
