Fedora 26 dnf update not working behind proxy

On Fedora 26 when I do sudo dnf update I get the error

Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'updates'

I configured both my system-wide proxy and the proxy in dnf.conf. Other connections such as the browser work with this proxy.

How can I fix this?

You may need to specify basic auth method in dnf.conf like this

[main]
gpgcheck=1
installonly_limit=3
clean_requirements_on_remove=True
proxy=http://proxy/example.com:8080
proxy_username=username
proxy_password=password
proxy_auth_method=basic
