Methods of Extracting Residential Proxy
There are two methods for extracting our residential proxies:
- API Extraction
- Credential Authentication (Username & Password)
Method 1: API Extraction
1. Log In and Access "Get Proxy"
- Important Note: Add your local IP to the IP whitelist before using the API Extraction method. This can be done via the Account Dashboard.
- After logging in, tap "Get Proxy".

2. Configure and Generate API Link
- Select "API extraction" and configure the settings based on your needs.
- Click "Generate API Link" to complete the proxy extraction.

Method 2: Credential Authentication (User & Password)
1. Create a Sub-Account
- After logging in, create a sub-account via your personal account dashboard.
- Ensure to change the sub-account status from "Pause" to "Enable" and set up a data usage cap (Traffic Cap) to prevent unexpected overuse.
- Hit "Confirm" to finish creating the sub-account.


2. Access "Get Proxy" and Configure Settings
- Head to the "Get Proxy" section and select "Credential Authentication".
- Configure your residential proxy based on your needs. For example, select "Random in North America".
Note: Swiftproxy offers two IP types:
- Sticky Session: For sticky IP, select the IP stabilization time (e.g., if set to 3 minutes, the IP will change every 3 minutes).
- Rotation Mode: IPs will change every time we make a new request to the web.

3. Finish Proxy Extraction
- Tap "Copy link" or "Batch Generation" to finish the proxy extraction.
