excel vba - VBA Proxy auto-configuration for http requests -


i need build client web api in vba , needs work behind proxy (with authentication). i've been looking @ winhttp.winhttprequest , msxml2.xmlhttp/serverxmlhttp classes. turns out that:

  • xmlhttp automatically detects proxy settings provided through proxy.pac file (good)
  • winhttprequest doesn't (bad)

however, on other hand:

  • xmlhttp automatically follows redirects, , there's no way of disabling behaviour (bad)
  • winhttprequest doesn't (good)

since i'd able have cake , eat it, there way automatic proxy configuration component such winhttprequest doesn't follow redirects blindly?

the vba-web project might pastry eating problem.

i guess wish go like:

dim client new webclient client     .baseurl = "https://www.google.com"     .proxyusername = <user>     .proxypassword = <password>     .enableautoproxy = true end  dim request new webrequest request     .method = webmethod.httpget     .format = webformat.plaintext end  dim response webresponse set response = client.execute(request)
