Additionally you must untick **Enable Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protection** in qBittorrent's Web UI options for the reverse proxy to work.
You can use HTTPS to access the URL via IIS and it will use HTTP to communicate with qBittorrent. There is no need for HTTPS on localhost.
Note: If you find yourself seeing `WebAPI login failure. Reason: IP has been banned, IP: 127.0.0.1` and needing to restart qBittorrent, you may want to set the ban after failure count to `0` which will disable it.
