API Proxy

This section provides documentation on the various API proxy options supported when using Statsig.

Why Use an API Proxy?​

There are several compelling reasons to implement an API proxy for Statsig network requests:

  1. Mitigate Tracking Blocker Impact: Reduce the effect of tracking blockers on Statsig API usage.
  2. Meet Security Requirements: Comply with internal network security and topology standards.
  3. Enhance API Availability: Improve API availability guarantees within your internal network boundary.

API Proxy Deployment Options​

API proxies can be deployed in various forms, each with its own advantages and considerations. The choice between a managed service and a self-hosted solution, or deploying outside versus inside your network, depends on your specific needs.

We offer documentation on the following options.

For both server SDKs and client SDKs:

  • Custom Proxy: A fully customizable proxy that you own and operate in your environment.
  • Managed Proxy: A lightweight, Statsig-owned proxy that provides out-of-the-box functionality.

For server SDKs only:

  • Forward Proxy: A Statsig-built proxy designed for deployment within your own environment.

Choose the option that best aligns with your infrastructure requirements and operational preferences. If you have any questions/concerns, drop on in to our slack channel and let us know.
