How to use username:password?

This article will guide you through using a residential proxy with username:password authentication, where you can see the various configurations applied to the proxy via the proxy string. Let's get started!

Step 1 Select proxy location

First, let’s look at this part of the picture below. You can choose a random proxy location, or you can search and select a precise country. Click View Country Code on the right to retrieve the corresponding country code.

Step 2 Select host, port and session type

Here, you can choose a hostname port in Singapore, the United States, or Europe.

In the session type, you can choose [Sticky IP] and [Rotating IP].

When you select sticky IP, you can set the usage time of the IP, ranging from 1 to 120 minutes.

When you select a Rotating IP, an IP will be randomly switched every time the website is requested. After the IP time is used up, the IP will be randomly switched.

Step 3 Test whether the proxy connection is normal

After editing your username and password, you can paste the cURL (a cross-platform tool) example into the command line or terminal to quickly test your proxy settings.

Step 4 Generate proxy list

Here you can select the format and quantity of proxies. The quantity range is 1-10000. Click Generate to output the proxy list. You can copy it directly into any application or tool, or generate a .txt or .csv file that can be imported into other tools.

Example:

1. host

2. ports

3. username

4. countries, cities

5. Sticky IP usage setting time (if you choose a Rotating IP, this part will not be included)

6. password
