How to set BigQuery Proxy in PowerBI without admin privileges on machine

I am using Google Bigquery connector on PowerBI to connect to a GCP project, but bigquery APIs are only accessible if we use a proxy to enable private access. Is there a way to set proxy in Google Bigquery connector. 

I can change the host file in machine and but it is not allowed as I am not admin. So looking for ways to set proxy in powerBI directly. 
I tried the env variable(not sure if valid) but its not working - 

# Override using an environment variable
CLOUDSDK_API_ENDPOINT_OVERRIDES_BIGQUERY=storage-vialink1.p.googleapis.com

GCloud also I cant install on the machine. What are the ways I can go ahead?
