I might be wrong but this seems impossible atm. If the proxy is
secured by http basic auth you could hand in the needed credentials
within the URL (untested though):

CONNECTION "https://user:pw@server.fqd:port/service?..."

Make sure you import the SSL-cert correctly in libcurls keystore (found
in the value of URL_CA_BUNDLE env-var.

See [1] for more details.
