Feature Request: Ability to make external HTTP requests in workflow

[erbanku]

Currently, when Agentic workflows run and need to make external requests within them, they fail due to the firewall actively blocking them. How can we fix this?

Warning

⚠️ Firewall blocked 1 domain
The following domain was blocked by the firewall during workflow execution:

dev.xxx.com

[erbanku]

Or is there a way to add allowed domains?

[pelikhan]

Copilot update the generated firewall message in the footer with a front matter snippet to allow those domains and a url to our docs on firewall.

[pelikhan]

You can do

network:
   allowed:
     - dev.xxx.com

@pelikhan Thanks for your response.

Also, can I use the Claude engine with my GitHub Copilot subscription in GitHub AW? According to the documentation, I need an ANTHROPIC_API_KEY from Anthropic, but I think it would be better if GitHub AW supports Claude natively, as it does now on GitHub.

Attempting to switch the engine to Claude without an ANTHROPIC_API_KEY results in a complete failure.
