Exporting a list of proxies from a particular service
Learn how to export a formatted list of proxies from a specific service using the list_by_search endpoint
This example demonstrates how to export a formatted list of proxies from a specific service using the list_by_search
endpoint with filtering parameters. Unlike the basic search, this endpoint returns ready-to-use proxy strings in your desired format.
Understanding the List Formats
When exporting proxies, you can choose from several different formats:
Format | Example | Description |
---|---|---|
standard | 123.456.78.90:8080 | Basic format with IP:port only |
http | http://username:password@123.456.78.90:8080 | HTTP proxy URL format |
socks5 | socks5://username:password@123.456.78.90:1080 | SOCKS5 proxy URL format |
socks5h | socks5h://username:password@123.456.78.90:1080 | SOCKS5 with hostname resolution |
Authentication Types
You can also specify the authentication method in your export:
username_and_password
: Standard authentication with proxy user credentialsip_address
: IP-based authenticationproxy_specific
: Proxy-specific authentication
