Add Custom Proxies

Custom Proxies is designed for proxy services that provide a fixed host, port, username, and password. Add one proxy manually or import several at once. Supported protocols are HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5; the current IP protocol is IPv4 only.

Add One Proxy

Open Custom Proxies, click Add Proxy, and enter a name and connection information. You can click Test Proxy before saving.

FieldDescription
NameRequired; identifies the proxy in lists and profile selectors
Proxy protocolHTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5; must match the provider's protocol
IP lookup serviceCurrently supports ip2location
IP protocolCurrently supports IPv4 only
Host:portThe host can be an IPv4 address or domain; the port must be an integer from 1 to 65535. Pasting host:port into the host field fills both fields
Username, PasswordOptional; leading and trailing spaces are removed when entered, pasted, or saved
Assigned profilesSelect existing profiles while saving
NotesRecord a purpose or provider; never enter a password

No.FeatureDescription
1NameRequired before the proxy can be saved
2Proxy protocolMust match the provider's proxy protocol
3Lookup and IP protocolSelect an IP lookup service; the current IP protocol is IPv4
4Host and portHost can be IPv4 or a domain; port range is 1-65535
5Test ProxyRuns a local test with the current form values
6AuthenticationEnter when required by the provider; both fields are optional
7Assigned profilesAssign the new proxy directly to one or more existing profiles
8NotesStore only nonsensitive usage information

Testing an individual proxy requires the desktop client. If it fails, keep the form open, correct the host, port, protocol, or credentials, and test again.

Add Proxies in Bulk

Click the arrow next to Add Proxy and select Batch Add. Enter one proxy per line, up to 500 at once. Only IPv4 is supported. Records without a protocol prefix use the Default Proxy Protocol; you can also add a protocol at the beginning of a line.

text
192.168.0.1:8000
192.168.0.1:8000:username:password{business note}
proxy.example.com:8000:username:password
socks5://192.168.0.1:8000{residential proxy}
https://192.168.0.1:8000

The format is host:port[:username[:password]][{note}]. Notes can contain up to 40 characters. An ASCII colon in the username or password creates an invalid number of fields; use credentials without colons or add that proxy individually.

1Multiline inputOne proxy per line; changes are parsed immediately and invalid lines are marked
2Default protocolApplied to records without a protocol prefix
3Format referenceLists supported protocols, field order, quantity limit, and IPv4 requirement
4IP lookup serviceUsed when saving all batch records
5Test statisticsDisplays the added, successful, and failed counts after testing
6Add successful onlyFilters failed tests when submitting; requires desktop client test results
7Check duplicatesCompares IP and port with saved custom proxies and skips matching records

Batch tests run in groups to avoid excessive local requests in a short period. When Add successful proxies only is enabled, untested records are tested first. The batch cannot be submitted if no test succeeds.

Maintain Saved Proxies

Filter the list by ID, name, notes, or protocol. Edit the name, notes, or proxy protocol directly; click the browser icon to assign profiles or the copy icon to copy the complete connection details. Select records to test or delete them in bulk.

Before deleting a custom proxy, confirm that its assigned profiles no longer need it. Use Edit in the Actions column to change the host, port, username, password, or assigned profiles.
