> ``user-id``

> `user-id` used to authenticate an AppServer client to the HTTP-based proxy server. The `user-id` can be a string of up to 512 printable ASCII characters, including the space character.

> You can access `-proxyUserid` using the `SESSION:PROXY-USERID` attribute.

> If `-proxyhost` and `-proxyport` are not specified on the command-line to the 4GL client, any value for the `-proxyUserid`, whether specified with the startup parameter or with the `SESSION` attribute, is ignored.

> The `user-id` is validated during the AppServer `CONNECT()` method. If `user-id` is invalid, the `CONNECT()` method fails and OpenEdge issues an error message.

> If `-proxyPassword` is not specified or `SESSION:PROXY-PASSWORD` is not set, and `-proxyUserid` is specified, a blank proxy password is used by the AppServer `CONNECT()` method.
