TFS behind Nginx reverse proxy - nginx

Question

Trying to configure Team Foundation Server behind Nginx reverse proxy.
Also, I'm using a self-signed SSL Certificate.
Getting ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS
Here is my nginx configuration:
server {
listen 80 default;
server_name tfs.domain.com;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
upstream tfs.domain.com {
server 12.34.56.78:80; #local tfs address
keepalive 16;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name tfs.domain.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/tfs.domain.com.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/tfs.domain.com.key;
ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:10m;
ssl_session_timeout 5m;
ssl_protocols SSLv3 TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_ciphers "HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5 or HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5:!3DES";
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
location / {
proxy_pass http://12.34.56.78:80; #local tfs address
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Connection "";
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
proxy_redirect http:// $scheme://;
}
access_log /var/log/nginx/tfs.domain.com/443-access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/tfs.domain.com/443-error.log;
}
What I'm doing wrong?

Just try to set the proxy_redirect explicitly:
e.g.:
proxy_redirect http://localhost:8080 https://tfs.domain.com;
You can reference below article to configure the nginx (It should be similar with TFS):
