Checking if a proxy is configured in your Jira server isn’t too tricky. Here’s a way to go about it:
First, you’ll want to hop into the server.xml file. That’s where the magic happens. It’s usually in the Jira installation directory, under the conf folder.

Checking if a proxy is configured in your Jira server isn’t too tricky. Here’s a way to go about it: First, you’ll want to hop into the server.xml file. That’s where the magic happens. It’s usually in the Jira installation directory, under the conf folder. Once you’ve opened it, look for any lines that mention proxyName and proxyPort. If you spot those, then a proxy is set up. If not, well, no proxies are in place. Also, if you have any additional proxy settings, they might be under the "Tomcat" section. This can show whether the proxy is involved in the connections. For more detailed setups or tweaks, I suggest checking out lightningproxies.net . They have some handy information and tools for proxy configurations.

Hi @Nikhila Patel 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

If you have backend server access of your Jira instance then you can check the server.xml file of Jira installation directory generally on /opt/atlassian/jira/conf location if there are any parameters configured for proxyName, proxtPort, scheme

You can check the below document for more details
