Session Types
Our rotating ISP proxies support session durations of up to 360 minutes. Continue reading below to learn how to configure sticky session duration.
Sticky Sessions
Sticky sessions let you keep a single IP address for multiple requests. To reuse the same IP address repeatedly, append the session-sessid parameter after the proxy pool identifier zone-isp. One example is session-123eizsdp.
The default session duration is 120 minutes, with up to 60 seconds of inactivity allowed (that is, no requests). If there are no requests for 60 seconds or the IP becomes invalid, a new IP address is automatically assigned.
For example, the original query assigns proxy IP 1.1.1.1 to sessid-abcde12345. As long as you keep sending new requests with the same session ID and the IP address remains online and available, the system continues routing traffic through 1.1.1.1. If no additional request is sent within 60 seconds, or if the IP address becomes unreachable, the system assigns a new proxy IP. As a result, subsequent queries using sessid-abcde12345 will be routed through a backup IP address such as 1.1.1.2.
Below are illustrative examples of credential strings:
USERNAME-zone-isp-session-agd6ty6jbayl:PASSWORDUSERNAME-zone-isp-session-jke15gnkac39:PASSWORDUSERNAME-zone-isp-session-zq7f15gsgfgy:PASSWORDUSERNAME-zone-isp-session-5ld641xn6bpu:PASSWORDUSERNAME-zone-isp-session-rhads5haqu15:PASSWORDExample:
In this example, we use a US IP for the first request with the username parameter session-abcdef123456. All subsequent requests will use the same US IP for further queries:

time.sleep(10)Session Duration Control:
To control the duration of a sticky session, append the sessTime parameter after session-sessid. The parameter value is the session duration you want to set. The maximum session duration is 360 minutes. If the preset duration expires or the IP becomes invalid, the system automatically switches to a new IP for you.
Note: The session time parameter does not guarantee that all of your requests will complete before the session ends. Even if a request is still in progress, the session will expire once the configured time limit is reached.
Credential List Examples:
The following examples show credential strings for different sessions with different session durations (in minutes).
USERNAME-zone-isp-session-15jrAGF6jbayl-sessTime-5:PASSWORDUSERNAME-zone-isp-session-jh125fdaf5ja-sessTime-10:PASSWORDUSERNAME-zone-isp-session-54khfdhs4uyw-sessTime-15:PASSWORDUSERNAME-zone-isp-session-lksagfd7p165-sessTime-20:PASSWORDUSERNAME-zone-isp-session-51ajsscv86hg-sessTime-25:PASSWORDCode Example:
In this example, we again choose a US IP address like before. This time, however, we add the session string and the sessTime parameter with a duration of 15 minutes.
