By default, Proxy uses HTTP scheme for Resource Synchronization and Data transfer.

Support has been added to use Proxy with HTTPS scheme for ssl server for Resource Synchronization and Data transfer

Added field in Engine Configuration : Proxy Server > Proxy Scheme - HTTP and HTTPS.

For HTTP scheme FORWARD Proxy is used, and for HTTPS scheme REVERSE Proxy is used.

For HTTP scheme BASIC and DIGEST Authentication is supported , and for HTTPS scheme BASIC Authentication is supported.

HTTPS scheme is only supported though UI and not using environment variables

For non-ssl server it is expected that HTTP?scheme is used for Proxy , similarly for ssl server?HTTPS?scheme used for Proxy.
