Hi Grant,

So my idea is to install a single squid server and redirect the internal servers to that url instead of the original one. Squid will then redirect the post to the correct external server asi it is installed on a server that has external access  I hope this is possible

Are you going to re-configure the clients to use the new / different
name?  Or do you need to re-configure either the intermediate Squid or
the target; Fred, also running squid, to translate from the old API
hostname to the new / different hostname?

Are there two Squid servers in play now that Fred is running Squid?

Is there a proxy server, Squid or otherwise, between clients and Fred?
Or is Fred the Squid server that you were referencing in your emails?

I suspect you might need to do more than simply pass the requests
through.  It sounds to me like you need to translates requests for
https://fred.mydomain.com/api/event to https://dmz.mydomain.com/api/event.

It seems to me like you are going to want to configure Squid on Fred to
act as a Reverse Proxy (Accelerator).
