Scenarios

Retrieves the profile of the currently authenticated customer, along with their credit balance.


Retrieve Current Customer

Retrieves a specific Proxy based on the provided ID for the current user's account, ensuring
that only proxies associated with the customer services and in use are returned.


Retrieve Proxy

Search Proxies on the customer account using various filters.


Search Proxies

This endpoint is for editing an existing proxy in the system using the provided `proxy_id`. It allows updating Proxy Specific Authentication username or password.


Proxy Edit

This endpoint retrieves a list of proxies assigned to the current user (or a specified
customer) based on the proxy IDs.

This endpoint is intentionally a POST even though it only retrieves data since it needs to larger lists of UUIDs.


Generate Proxy List By ID

This endpoint retrieves a list of available proxies for a user based on provided search parameters.
The search parameters allow the user to filter the proxies based on protocol, version, format, and associated service ID.
The function returns proxies in various formats suitable for different purposes.


Generate Proxy List By Search

This endpoint allows you to create a new proxy user.

The `proxy_user_id` and `proxy_user_password` can be provided or, if omitted, will be randomly generated.

Additional considerations when creating a Proxy User:
- `proxy_user_is_strict_security`: If true, the Proxy User requires an IP address authentication list.
- `restricted_service_ids`: A list of service IDs that the user is restricted to, if service restriction is enabled.
- `ip_address_authentications` must be a list of valid IP addresses. Each IP address can only be used by one Proxy User.
- `proxy_user_residential_bytes_limit`: An integer limiting residential traffic (must not be negative).


Create Proxy User

Retrieves a specific Proxy User based on the provided ID for the current user's account.


Retrieve Proxy User

Search Proxy Users on the customer account using various filters.


Search Proxy Users

This endpoint allows a user to edit an existing Proxy User entry by providing the necessary `proxy_user_id`.


Edit Proxy User

Allows a user to delete an existing proxy user associated with their account.
Proxy users that are set as account default can not be deleted,
and already deleted proxy users can not be deleted again.


Delete Proxy User Record

This endpoint creates a list of residential proxies based on filter parameters.
The search parameters allow the user to filter the proxies by location, session type, and format (e.g., http, socks5, socks5h).


Generated Residential List

This endpoint provides a detailed summary of a residential service.
It returns information such as service details, usage statistics, and associated proxy users.


Retrieve Residential Service Summary

Retrieves a specific Residential Ledger based on the provided ID for the current user's account.


Retrieve Residential Ledger

Search for entries in the Residential Ledger using various filters.


Search Residential Ledger

Retrieves a specific Service based on the provided ID for the current user's account.
If the 'show_proxies' parameter is set to 'True', it will also fetch proxies associated
with each service and add them to the result.


Retrieve Service

Search Services on the customer account using various filters.


Search Services

Allows a user to edit the details of an existing service.
This can include changes in payment method, adjusting automatic collection,
and marking for cancellation at the end of a period.


Edit Service

Allows the authenticated user to cancel a specific service associated with their account.
The user provides a service_id and optionally a cancel feedback and comment.


Cancel Service

Retrieves a specific Service Adjustment based on the provided ID for the current user's account.
The returned adjustment provides details about any modifications or updates made to the user's service.


Retrieve Service Adjustment

Search Service Adjustments on the customer account using various filters.


Search Service Adjustments

This endpoint returns a simplified product list that is both visible
and enabled for API checkouts. It helps clients to quickly identify and
purchase available products without any search or pagination parameters.
Ideal for basic API-based purchasing.


Retrieve Simplified Product Checkout Catalog

This endpoint allows a user to generate a quote for a service via the API. You can either specify
a `product_code` directly or use the traditional combination of `product_type`, `country_id`, and
`product_protocol`.


Generate Checkout Quote

This endpoint creates a checkout for the authenticated user based on the provided data. It supports
different payment platforms, promotional codes, and can handle both one-time and recurring payments.
You can either specify a `product_code` directly or supply the traditional combination of
`product_type`, `country_id`, and `product_protocol`.

**Important considerations**
- If `product_code` is provided alongside `product_type`/`country_id`/`product_protocol`, their values must match the actual product attributes.
- If the invoice amount remaining is `0`, it means your available credit fully covered the cost and the service is considered immediately paid.
- If the invoice needs payment, you will be returned an `invoice_url` to complete checkout.


Create Checkout

This endpoint analyzes proxy usage for a given customer within a specified time range
and groups them by one of four discrete intervals: `minute`, `hour`, `day`, or `month`.

You can either

1. Provide a `preset` parameter, which automatically sets period and interval
   (e.g. `last_day`, `last_hour`, etc.)
2. OR, manually specify your own time range (`period_start`, `period_end`) plus `interval`

You can also filter by `hostname`, `network`, `proxy_user_id`, and `service_id`.
Service ID can only be filtered if period is within 7 days and interval is hour or less.
Hostname filters are disallowed if searching older than 90 days.


Graph Proxy Analytics

Search Product

Retrieve ASN

Search Autonomous System Number (ASN) entries using various filters.
