# cURL Request Parameters

Below is a list of parameters followed by examples of request types:

 

<table><thead><tr><th width="182">Parameter</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>USERNAME</td><td>Username of proxy user.</td></tr><tr><td>stc</td><td>Indicates query for static ISP residential proxy.</td></tr><tr><td>stc_sc</td><td>Prefix indicating the use of state/city configuration.</td></tr><tr><td>country</td><td>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.</td></tr><tr><td>city</td><td>City name, should be combined with country code, for example nl_amsterdam.</td></tr><tr><td>state</td><td><p>US state, in combination with city name, for example</p><p>us_alabama_birmingham.</p></td></tr><tr><td>SID</td><td>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-10000, and the highest SID can be sid-999999999.</td></tr><tr><td>PASSWORD</td><td>Proxy user password.</td></tr><tr><td>site URL</td><td>User’s destination site.</td></tr></tbody></table>

A basic query inserting only USERNAME and PASSWORD will be performed from a random static residential IP address:

<mark style="color:blue;">`curl`</mark>`-x USERNAME-stc-any:PASSWORD@gw.netnut.net:5959 “example.site.com”`

Request a specific country / state / city proxy, as in the examples below:

<mark style="color:blue;">`curl`</mark>`-x  USERNAME-stc-nl:PASSWORD@gw.netnut.net:5959 “example.site.com”`

<mark style="color:blue;">`curl`</mark>`-x USERNAME-stc_sc-nl_amsterdam:PASSWORD@gw.netnut.net:5959 “example.site.com”`

<mark style="color:blue;">`curl`</mark>`-x USERNAME-stc_sc-us_alabama_birmingham:PASSWORD@gw.netnut.net: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:\ <mark style="color:blue;">`curl`</mark>`-x USERNAME-stc-uk-sid-947045456:PASSWORD@gw.netnut.net:5959" "example.site.com"`
