Once you have your proxy credentials from the dashboard, use any of these examples to make your first request.
Your proxies follow this format:
host:port:username:password
192.168.1.1:3128:myuser:mypass
Code examples
import requests
proxies = {
"http": "http://myuser:mypass@192.168.1.1:3128",
"https": "http://myuser:mypass@192.168.1.1:3128"
}
response = requests.get("https://httpbin.org/ip", proxies=proxies)
print(response.json())
# {"origin": "192.168.1.1"}
const axios = require('axios');
const HttpsProxyAgent = require('https-proxy-agent');
const agent = new HttpsProxyAgent('http://myuser:mypass@192.168.1.1:3128');
axios.get('https://httpbin.org/ip', { httpsAgent: agent })
.then(res => console.log(res.data))
.catch(err => console.error(err));
// {"origin": "192.168.1.1"}
curl -x http://myuser:mypass@192.168.1.1:3128 https://httpbin.org/ip
# {"origin": "192.168.1.1"}
package main
import (
"fmt"
"net/http"
"net/url"
"io"
)
func main() {
proxyURL, _ := url.Parse("http://myuser:mypass@192.168.1.1:3128")
client := &http.Client{
Transport: &http.Transport{Proxy: http.ProxyURL(proxyURL)},
}
resp, _ := client.Get("https://httpbin.org/ip")
defer resp.Body.Close()
body, _ := io.ReadAll(resp.Body)
fmt.Println(string(body))
}
Verifying your connection
After running any of the examples above, the response should show your proxy IP address, not your real IP. If you see your real IP, double-check:
- The proxy host and port are correct
- Your username and password are correct
- You’re using the right protocol (
http:// prefix)
Replace 192.168.1.1:3128:myuser:mypass with your actual proxy credentials from the dashboard.
Using SOCKS5
All Stat Proxies support SOCKS5. Simply change the protocol:
curl --socks5 myuser:mypass@192.168.1.1:3128 https://httpbin.org/ip
