cURL Request Parameters
Below is a list of parameters followed by examples of request types:
Parameter
Description
USERNAME
Username of proxy user.
stc
Indicates query for static ISP residential proxy.
stc_sc
Prefix indicating the use of state/city configuration.
country
Country code in two-letter format, not case sensitive. For example, nl indicates a proxy in the Netherlands; za for South Africa; it for Italy.
city
City name, should be combined with country code, for example nl_amsterdam.
state
US state, in combination with city name, for example
us_alabama_birmingham.
SID
Session ID keeps the same IP for the next queries. Otherwise, a new IP is assigned for each new request. The same IP address can be used until the end user device disconnects or the session is terminated. Note that session ID (SID) does not guarantee the same IP address will be used for future sessions. SID supports any random number up to 9 digits. The lowest SID can be sid-1, and the highest SID can be sid-999999999.
ASN
Add ASN number to request specific network or provider for routing internet traffic. Note - ASN works only with stc_sc.
PASSWORD
Proxy user password.
site URL
User’s destination site.
A basic query inserting only USERNAME and PASSWORD will be performed from a random static residential IP address:
curl
-x USERNAME-stc-any:[email protected]:5959 “example.site.com”
Request a specific country / state / city proxy, as in the examples below:
curl
-x USERNAME-stc-nl:[email protected]:5959 “example.site.com”
curl
-x USERNAME-stc_sc-nl_amsterdam:[email protected]:5959 “example.site.com”
curl
-x USERNAME-stc_sc-us_alabama_birmingham:[email protected]:5959 “example.site.com”
Add the SID (session ID) parameter to use the same IP for next queries. Note that SID must be preceded by a country:
curl
-x USERNAME-stc-uk-sid-947045456:[email protected]:5959" "example.site.com"
curl
-x USERNAME-stc_sc-ASN_number:[email protected]:5959" "example.site.com"
Note: You can use either country or ASN parameter in each request.
