To your point, not all SaaS or vendors with integrations let you run your own code. If they do allow it there's probably an OpenZiti-native way to build-in the connectivity you need.

One alternative is running a tunneler like our users did for their continued access to the Jenkins UI. This is like a VPN client that can run pretty much anywhere, and so there's an excellent chance that it's already in the app store or coming soon for whatever platform you have in mind.

As for an authenticated proxy, thanks for that idea. I do think that a hardened internet edge like that has utility in cases like this, like NGrok + SSO. Another reader suggested their solution involving a third-party queue, essentially offloading the internet exposure problem to a public cloud provider, which is basically what I did here but with different software.
