Dashboard Generation

If you have available residential bandwidth on your account you can generate residential proxies on the Residential Generator dashboard section.

You can generate 1,000 proxies at a time through the dashboard and you can do this an unlimited number of times.

The generator will allow you to select your geolocation and carrier settings as well as the session type.

Syntax Generation

You can also generate residential proxies via syntax generation. Our proxies have a standardized format and as long as you generate proxy information in this format then your proxies will be accepted by our network.

Basic Random Residential Proxy

Format

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:{username}:{password}

Example

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:stevejobs:apple123

Sticky Residential Proxy

You can make a proxy have a sticky IP address by adding a session ID in this format: _s_{random_alphanumeric} to the username field of the proxy. Any requests with using a proxy with the same alphanumeric session ID will try to link you to the same IP address as the first request with that session ID.

Format

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:{username}_s_{random_alphanumeric}:{password}

Example of a Sticky Proxy

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:stevejobs_s_we12NkllMSS:apple123

Country Targeting

You can make a proxy have a IP address from a specific country by adding a country ISO 3166 code in this format: _c_{country_iso_code} to the username field of the proxy. Any requests with using a proxy with the ISO code will return a proxy with an IP address from the selected country.

Format

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:{username}_c_{country_iso_code}:{password}

Example of a United Kingdom Proxy

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:stevejobs_c_gb:apple123

City Targeting

You can make a proxy have a IP address from a specific city by adding city name or alias in this format: _city_{city_alias} to the username field of the proxy. Any requests with using a proxy with the city alias will return a proxy with an IP address from the selected city.

You can find out a full list of available cities and their alias via the dashboard.

Format

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:{username}_c_{country_iso_code_of_city}_city_{citry_alias}:{password}

Example of a London Proxy

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:stevejobs_c_gb_city_london:apple123

ASN Targeting

You can make a proxy have a IP address from a specific ASN / Carrier by adding ASN in this format: _asn_{asn_number} to the username field of the proxy. Any requests with using a proxy with the ASN number will return a proxy with an IP address from that network.

You can find out a full list of available carriers and ASNs via the dashboard.

Format

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:{username}_asn_{asn_number}:{password}

Example of a AT&T Proxy

residential.pingproxies.com:8000:stevejobs_asn_7018:apple123

Combined Targeting

You can combine any of the above targeting methods together to your proxy information to further limit the IP Addresses of your proxies.
