How to use proxy field in package.json to redirect user to an api page?

[neelkarma]

So I've been using the proxy field in package.json to proxy all fetch requests to the backend, which works flawlessly, but what if I want to redirect the user to an API page? I can't use an anchor tag that has an href of /apipage since it will redirect to the web app, not the API page. Does anyone know if there's a way to do this?
