Proxying the API
Hayo, I would like to proxy the Discord API so that I can analyze what endpoints I call the most, as well as other data like the response codes I get and stuff. I setup a basic nginx vhost on my computer but it doesn't seem to be working well, and I think the problem is I don't really know what I'm doing lol. If any of you already did that or knows how to do that, could you please give me advice on how I could configure my nginx so it works properly? All I want is for the connection to Discord API to go through a lil nginx vhost on the local machine before going to Discord servers. Here's what I have so far: 
server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  discord.local discord.com;

    access_log D:\\Programs\\nginx\\logs\\discord.local-access.log;
    error_log  D:\\Programs\\nginx\\logs\\discord.local-error.log;

    location / {
        #proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        #proxy_set_header   Host $http_host;
        proxy_pass         https://discord.com;
    }
}
server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  discord.local discord.com;

    access_log D:\\Programs\\nginx\\logs\\discord.local-access.log;
    error_log  D:\\Programs\\nginx\\logs\\discord.local-error.log;

    location / {
        #proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        #proxy_set_header   Host $http_host;
        proxy_pass         https://discord.com;
    }
}
With discord.local, it gives me an error 421 With discord.com it simply does not respond. Thank you!
