they Take Me To The Same Roblox URL

Proxies is used to access Roblox’s API in studio as Roblox doesn’t allow you to use their API directly in games for security reasons.

As @334901766 mentioned that’s the purpose and why it’s called a proxy. Basically, instead of making a request to Roblox directly from a live Roblox server, the server makes a request to the proxy(which you can imagine as another server/site) which makes an identical request to roblox.com, receives the response, and returns it to the requester(your game server). That way a security restriction is bypassed which is Roblox not allowing you to make requests to roblox.com directly.

You can also imagine a proxy as a big brother who you ask to buy you things or perform actions that aren’t for your age(in this case the restriction is your age).
