Is it possible to perform Proxy/Path chaining on a Node JS proxy ? that is Node JS target calling another proxy ?

Understanding is that proxy chaining is an http call still. Except, that it avoids a network call by making a call to localhost, hence avoiding DNS lookup and any additional calls on the network stack. I wonder if calling localhost from Node.js request package would achieve the same effect as a proxy chain ?

Hi @Anil Sagar,

Tried this on Private cloud and it doesn’t work.
Not sure if there is a property that I should enable but as a general rule even if it works I would not consider that as recommended unless our public docs cover that.
