+### Set Proxy Settings
 
-> Make sure to preserve the quotation marks and commas as in the initial `config.json` file.
+```Shell
+tns proxy set <Url> <Username> <Password>
+```
+
+#### Attributes
+
+<details><summary><code>&lt;Url&gt;</code></summary>
+<strong>(Required)</strong> The full URL of the proxy. The <code>&lt;Url&gt;</code> attribute is required and if you do not provide it when running the command, the NativeScript CLI will prompt you to provide it. An example of a valid proxy URL is <code>http://127.0.0.1:8888</code>.</details>
+ 
+<details><summary><code>&lt;Username&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;Password&gt;</code></summary>
+<strong>(Optional)</strong> The credentials for the proxy. The <code>&lt;Username&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;Password&gt;</code> attributes are optional, however, if you choose to provide them, you must provide both.</details> 
+
+#### Options
+
+<details><summary><code>--insecure</code></summary>
+The <code>--insecure</code> flag allows you to perform insecure SSL connections and transfers. This option is useful when your proxy does not have a CA certificate or the certificate is no longer valid.</details>
+
+#### Limitations
+
+* You can provide the `<Username>` and `<Password>` attributes only on Windows systems.
+* Proxy settings for the npm and the Android Gradle need to be configured separately. For more information, see the following articles:
+	* [Configure the npm proxy](https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/config#https-proxy)
+	* [Configure the Android Gradle proxy](https://docs.gradle.org/3.3/userguide/build_environment.html#sec:accessing_the_web_via_a_proxy)
