There are additional methods for setting up proxy servers that are supported for specific IDEs.

Setting up a Proxy Variable using Additional Parameters

  1. Go to the Checkmarx One plugin Settings .

  2. In the Additional parameters section, enter --proxy <proxy_url>, with the proxy_url using the following format http://<proxy_ip>:<port_number>. If authentication is required, then the format should be http://<username>:<password>@<proxy_ip>:<port_number>.
