# Running Freshpaint with a Proxy If you want to route data through your own server before the data is sent to Freshpaint, you can do so by customizing the initialization of the SDK. When calling `freshpaint.init()` you should provide your own API url you want to send the data to first like so: ```javascript freshpaint.init('', {'api_host': ''}); ``` --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://documentation.freshpaint.io/reference/faqs/running-freshpaint-with-a-proxy.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
