<div>Hi NGinx users,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Not sure if this is off topic. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Need help on what would be the recommended
setup/architecture for consuming external web apis (e.g.
twitter, Facebook APIs) securely from an application deployed
in an internal network. And how NGINX can augment in this
use case.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is what I have in mind but I'm not sure if this is a
supported setup of nginx.</div>

</div>
<div>InternalAPP --> (DMZ) NGINX -> external web api.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Appreciate any advise :)</div>

If you're trying to limit your application calls to outside, ex.
let's say your app can connect only to:<br>
<br>
api.google.com <br>
<br>
or <br>
<br>
api.facebook.com<br>
<br>
this seems more a job for a forwar proxy, typically squid.<br>
