The table below lists the domains that the source needs to be able to access in order to successfully run.
For each domain, add a corresponding egress policy. If the source is hosted on-premises and not directly reachable from Foundry, use an agent proxy egress policy instead; the agent host itself must also be able to reach the listed domains. See using an agent as a proxy for details.
