Making Requests ​

Basic Query ​

To start using IPxSS Mobile Proxies, you can send a request to https://ipinfo.ipxss.com through the proxy endpoint. Simply replace USERNAME and PASSWORD with your IPxSS authentication credentials. By default, each query uses a randomly assigned IP from the IPxSS mobile proxy pool, giving each request a new IP address.

To verify the details of the assigned IP, such as country, city, postal code, ASN, and time zone, you can query the proxy server at ipinfo.ipxss.com.

IPxSS Mobile Proxy servers support the HTTP protocol.

Query Example: ​

In this example, a request is made to ipinfo.ipxss.com using a random IP:

cURL ​

text
curl -x gateway.ipxss.com:7777 -U "USER-zone-mob:PASS" ipinfo.ipxss.com

Requests for Specific Regions and Cities ​

IPxSS lets you specify proxies from specific countries or cities by appending parameters to the username. This method also supports session control. Below are some example credentials:

Example: ​

To use a proxy from the United States with additional control over the session or city-level targeting:

USERNAME-zone-mob-region-us-city-CITY-session-123keh4ra-sessTime-5:PASSWORD:gateway.ipxss.com:7777

Parameter Breakdown:

Let's break down the structure of a full IPxSS proxy username:

Structure:

USERNAME-zone-mob-region-us-city-newyork-session-123keh4ra-sessTime-5:PASSWORD:gateway.ipxss.com:7777
  • USERNAME: Your IPxSS account username, used for authentication.
  • zone-mob: Indicates the mobile proxy pool to use.
  • region-us: A 2-letter country code that restricts the proxy to a specific region, such as the United States.
  • city-newyork: Targets a proxy from a specific city, in this case New York.
  • session-123keh4ra: Ensures the same IP remains unchanged across multiple requests (default validity is 5 minutes).
  • sessTime-5: Extends the session duration to 5 minutes (optional, maximum 120 minutes).
  • PASSWORD: Your IPxSS proxy account password.

Query Parameters ​

ParameterDescription
usernameProxy account username
zoneIP pool name
regionCountry/region; omitted for random areas
stThe state you want to specify
cityThe city you want to specify. Can be used without the “state” parameter
sessionRequired for sticky IP and IP switching. Use it when looking up a specific IP during a fixed-IP or switching scenario
sessTimeUsed with session to set the IP duration
passwordProxy account password
