Configuring The HTTP Handler

The HTTP handler (see HttpMessageHandler on microsoft docs) is a base class used for configuring the request and response of a HTTP message. There are several classes that inherits the HttpMessageHandler, which allows you do various things like configuring proxy, authorization, client certificates, cookies etc.

By default an instance of HttpClientHandler is used, but you can configure the handler to however you want by using the Configure method.

For example, to use proxy, you can set it to an instance of HttpClientHandler:

Configure(options => {
    options.HttpHandler = new HttpClientHandler
    {
        Proxy = new WebProxy("http://127.0.0.1:5000"),
        UseProxy = true
    };
});
