DevProxy

Dev Proxy can be installed silently using WinGet with the command winget install Microsoft.DevProxy --silent, but you must restart the command prompt after installation to refresh the PATH environment variable before the tool becomes usable. For enterprise deployments requiring configuration management, create a devproxyrc.json configuration file in the installation directory to pre-configure plugins, proxy settings, and API behavior before initial startup, avoiding interactive certificate and firewall prompts on first run.

For unattended rollout of Dev Proxy across developer workstations, install it via the .NET tool mechanism and pre-seed a standardized configuration by running dotnet tool install dev-proxy --global under the target user context and then dropping a centrally managed devproxyrc.json (aligned to the correct $schema version) into their profile or workspace, defining the required plugins array and any plugin configSection blocks needed for your organization’s API simulations.
