Sessions

Add a session ID to reuse the same proxy (IP Address) for multiple requests.

Sessions are the way websites recognize multiple requests coming from the same address. You can create and use a new session in order to scrape multiple pages of the same website and reuse the same proxy (IP Address) for each request.

The value of the X-WSA-Session-ID header can be any integer and is used to identify the new session created by you.

Web Stealth Proxy Session Examples

curl -k -x "http://stealthproxy.webscrapingapi.com:80" -U "<YOUR-PROXY-USERNAME>:<YOUR-PROXY-PASSWORD>" -X GET "https://httpbin.org/get" --header "X-WSA-Session: 1234"

const axios = require('axios');
const https = require('https');

const instance = axios.create({
  httpsAgent: new https.Agent({  
    rejectUnauthorized: false
  })
});

instance.get('https://httpbin.org/get', {
      proxy: {
          host: 'stealthproxy.webscrapingapi.com',
