Would setting "http_proxy" environment variable cause any problems on windows server 2012
I have a application on a Windows 2012 server in our environment.
I need to provide http/https connectivity to it to internet.
It is written in Go which uses environment variables to get proxy information.
The instructions from vendor are:-
1) Open “Properties” under “This PC”.
2) Select “Change Settings”.
3) Go to Advanced Tab, “Environment Variables".
4) Add a System variable called “HTTP_PROXY” and set the value to http://ipaddress:port
E.G. http://10.1.1.1:128/
The server has Azure AD connect on it as well.
Would setting this variable cause any problems and any things to keep in mind before setting this?

Do you have an http proxy on the network? Don't set it if you don't have one.
