Last updated
WebScrapingAPI allows you to send the request from different countries, by passing the country parameter to your request. To target any country simply pass the of that country. For example, if you want the targeted website to receive your request from an IP address located in Germany, you just need to pass the country=de parameter to your request.
When scraping Google, we use the gl parameter from the Google URL to select the proxy country. Please note that the country parameter of the API URL and the gl parameter of the Google URL are mutually exclusive. You should use only one of these parameters in your requests, as they cannot be combined.
You can target a specific city within a country by adding the city parameter. The city parameter's value must be in lowercase only and have no spaces, for example, to make a request from Vila Real in Portugal you would use city=vilareal
You can target a specific ASN from the using the asn parameter, for example asn=15169
Important! The url parameter has to be encoded.
( i.e. &url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.webscrapingapi.com%2F )
