Proxy

Proxy Settings let you attach a proxy to a specific scraper so that every time that scraper runs — manually, via schedule, or through the API — its requests are routed through the configured proxy.

This is useful when you need to:

• Mask your scraper's IP address to avoid detection or rate-limiting
• Access region-locked or geo-restricted content from a specific country
• Route traffic through your own private proxy infrastructure

How to Configure Proxy Settings

Step 1: Open Your Scraper Settings

1. Select the scraper you want to configure in the Scrapers page.
2. Click Settings → Proxy Settings.
