Access the Proxy
Web Stealth Proxy is available via HTTP and HTTPS. Authentication is done using the username and password method.
Your Web Stealth Proxy credentials are stored in the Start Here section of the Web Stealth Proxy service page.
These are the Proxy endpoints:
- HTTPS at
stealthproxy.webscrapingapi.com:8000 - HTTP at
stealthproxy.webscrapingapi.com:80
The authentication protocol requires you to specify:
username:password@stealthproxy.webscrapingapi.com:port_numberThe most basic example of an authenticated cURL request is:
curl -k -x "http://stealthproxy.webscrapingapi.com:80" -U "<YOUR_USERNAME>:<YOUR_PASSWORD>" -X GET "https://httpbin.org/get"
If you decide to use the Web Stealth Proxy, please make sure you disable the SSL certificates verification (
-k switch in cURL, verify=false in Python etc.)
