How to disable user prompt dialog: The proxy moz-proxy://xxxxxxx:8080 is requesting a username and password

more options

I'm using firefox in linux for selenium test automation. Some of my automation tests need a sysproxy (provided by my company) to access internet. These prefs are set in my test

"network.proxy.type": 1, "network.proxy.http": "company.proxy.com", "network.proxy.http_port": 8080

When firefox launches up, a prompt dialog is always shown asking for credentials for the proxy. I've added company .pem in path ~/.mozilla/certificates and these .pem are loaded correctly in firefox.

Is there a way to disable the user prompt dialog?

Does setting signon.autologin.proxy = true work ?

No, signon.autologin.proxy = true doesn't work. All .pems that our company proxy requires are installed via policies.json. I can see them in certificate manager.
