This article describes the steps that need to be followed so that the Runtime in IIS runs behind a reverse proxy where the X-Forwarded headers are set.

X-Forwarded Headers

It is not uncommon when installing Blueriq on a virtual machine in the cloud to not expose the machine directly to the internet, but to configure it behind a reverse proxy. This is done to limit direct access to virtual machine and to only allow traffic over ports 80 and 443. When this is done you will need to configure the X-Forwarded headers for the Runtime to work as intended. The Blueriq Runtime uses HATEOAS to construct urls to where resources can be found, HATEOAS itself uses the X-FORWARDED headers to determine the original request url which was used to reach the Blueriq Runtime. Without configuring the X-Forwarded headers, the Runtime would return build resource urls based on the request it got from the reserve proxy.
