UTM 9.7 Web filter Nest Camera "Invalid HTTP method"

Question

Good day All, 
 This is my first post to this community and I would like to thank you all for your contributions and time. 
 I have recently installed UTM 9.7 at home and almost everything is functioning as expected. The only kink so far is with web filtering and my Nest camera web interface that stops functioning when web filtering is enabled. 
 There was a post here that spoke on this topic but terminated last year and is now locked. My issues are the same as others so my intention is to find out if there is a fix in the works or are we all doomed. 
 Recap: 
 Nest camera works as expected with web filtering turned off, but when web filtering turned on the nest camera web interface stops working (In any browser I tested). I have whitelisted the Nest URI (in filtering options) and now I just get the following output: 
 2020:11:15-12:57:19 sophos_utm httpproxy[7311]: id="0003" severity="info" sys="SecureWeb" sub="http" request="(nil)" function="http_parser_context_execute" file="http_parser_context.c" line="97" message="Unable to parse a http message of 517 bytes (HPE_INVALID_METHOD: invalid HTTP method)" 
 
 2020:11:15-12:57:19 sophos_utm httpproxy[7311]: id="0003" severity="info" sys="SecureWeb" sub="http" request="0xd9bd4300" function="read_request_headers" file="request.c" line="1615" message="unable to parse a http message on handler 147 (Resource temporarily unavailable)"

Here is a screenshot from my web filtering options:

So, in a nut shell, I would just like to know if this issue is going to be fixed in the future as I have seen posts related to this subject that go back many years. Thanks for your time! 
 
 Cheers,

So, I found a elegant solution to my problem, I employed a VPN for the clients using the nest web interface and I can now use the web filtering features of UTM 9! 
 Thanks for you help Harsh!
