OkHttp proxy settings

I have to setup a proxy to send a JSON using POST, using proxyHost and proxyPort.

public static final MediaType JSON = MediaType.parse("application/json; charset=utf-8");
  Proxy proxyTest = new Proxy(Proxy.Type.HTTP,new InetSocketAddress("proxy", proxyPort));

  OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient()
  .proxy(proxyTest)
  .build();
  //OkHttpClient.Builder builder = new OkHttpClient.Builder();
  //builder.proxy(proxySAP);
  //client.setProxy(proxySAP)
  //OkHttpClient client = builder.build();;

  String post(String url, String json) throws IOException {

    RequestBody body = RequestBody.create(JSON, json);
    Request request = new Request.Builder()
        .url(url)
        .post(body)
        .build();
    try (Response response = client.newCall(request).execute()) {
      return response.body().string();
    }
  }

When i try to use the proxyTest that I've saw on some answers here it points an error:

The method proxy() in the type OkHttpClient is not applicable for the arguments (Proxy)

Iam using the OKHTTP 3.3.1(okhttp3)

My question is, what should I do? I did some tests like this:

OkHttpClient.Builder builder = new OkHttpClient.Builder();
builder.proxy(proxyTest);
client.setProxy(proxyTest)
OkHttpClient client = builder.build();

But nothing works so far.

Thanks for your time!

Found the solution:

  OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient.Builder().proxy(proxyTest).build();

If we use the builder to input the proxy, it will work like a charm =D
