Just wanted to post the magic sauce needed to get BTCPayServer working well on Umbrel when using Cloudflare Tunnels to expose it to clearnet w/ TLS.

The solution was here all along: [Umbrel v0.5 (getumbrel/app-proxy) doesn't forward SSL headers · Issue #1428 · getumbrel/umbrel · GitHub](https://github.com/getumbrel/umbrel/issues/1428#issuecomment-1184584190)

I’m reposting here for visibility, as I searched high and low and couldn’t find this on my own.

Please follow:

```auto
ssh umbrel@umbrel.local (or the IP of your Umbrel server) Password is the same as Umbrel Web UI
nano ~/umbrel/app-data/btcpay-server/.env.app_proxy

```

Type:

```auto
PROXY_TRUST_UPSTREAM=true

```

Then save using: Control + X, then: Y, then:

Finally, run this command to restart BTCPay Server:

```auto
~/umbrel/scripts/app restart btcpay-server

```

This probably works for other reverse proxying services like Tailscale, or running your own nginx (perhaps from a NAS), etc.
