Question
Our agent was not configured with proxy during setup - if we set up proxy at the agent level, different tasks behave differently, some of them respect agent-level proxy settings, some others require explicit HTTP_PROXY env vars at the task-level. If it turns out specific task respect agent-level proxy settings and we don't want to use proxy in this task, we need to use NO_PROXY env and hope it will work or configure .proxybypass at the agent-level. In the end we decided agent will run without proxy, and if any task in our pipelines requires outbound via proxy, it should be handled on task-by-task basis.
Now, looks like in such scenario we cannot use DownloadPipelineArtifactV2 which is baked into the agent. Our agent does not have explicit outbound access to *.blob.core.windows.net. If we try to set up:
env:
HTTP_PROXY: $(proxy)
at the DownloadPipelineArtifactV2 task level, it is not respected?
Are there any workarounds or we should really revisit our approach regarding proxy?
