How Do I Use a Proxy?

Written by Proxyrack

You can use a proxy by entering its connection details into the app, browser, software, or code you're using.

How to Connect to a Proxy:

1. Open your active proxy

Log in to your dashboard and open the proxy service you want to use.

2. Find your proxy credentials

Go to the Endpoints or Authentication section and copy the following details:

  • Hostname

  • Port

  • Username

  • Password

3. Enter your proxy details

Depending on the software you're using, you can enter the details in the following format:

hostname:port:username:password

For example:

global.rotating.proxyrack.net:9000:username:password

You can also use a full proxy URL:

http://username:password@hostname:port

4. Add the proxy to your application

Paste the proxy configuration into the browser, software, application, or script you're using.

The exact steps for configuring a proxy can vary depending on the application you're using. If you're unsure how to configure a proxy in your specific software, contact our support team with the name of the application you're using and we'll help you get started.
