Proxy Overview

Proxies stores, tests, and assigns network egresses for browser profiles. It contains three pages based on proxy source: Integrated Proxies, Custom Proxies, and Proxy API. When you create or edit a browser profile, you can select any saved proxy.

Choose a Proxy Type

TypeRecommended useSource
Integrated ProxyPurchase, renew, or synchronize a purchased proxyProxies purchased from ZYBrowser or synchronized from FourLeaf
Custom ProxyUse a fixed host, port, and credentials received from a providerEnter one manually or import several in bulk
Proxy APIFetch IPv4:port from a provider URL on demandEnter an API URL and select an IP refresh policy

All three types support testing, profile assignment, and proxy details. To buy an integrated proxy directly, see Purchase Proxy IPs. Team permissions determine which create, edit, delete, assignment, and renewal actions are available. See Manage Members and Roles for authorization details.

Open Proxy Management

Click Proxies in the client sidebar, then select Integrated Proxies, Custom Proxies, or Proxy API. Search, protocol filters, batch actions, and column settings appear at the top. The default page size can be set to 10, 20, or 50 records.

Common List Actions

  • Point to Name or Notes and click the edit icon to save an inline change.
  • Switch HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5 directly for Custom Proxies and Proxy API. Integrated Proxies supports only HTTP and SOCKS5.
  • Click the browser icon in the Assigned Profiles column to open the profile selector. The number indicates how many profiles are assigned.
  • Copy Details for a custom or integrated proxy copies IP:port:username:password. This contains sensitive credentials and is available only to members with proxy edit permission.
  • Select multiple records and click Test Proxy or Delete at the top. Before deleting, confirm that no production profile still uses the proxy.

Desktop Client and Permissions

Connectivity tests, Proxy API URL checks, and FourLeaf synchronization authorization require local capabilities and therefore work only in the desktop client. The web app can display cloud configuration but cannot perform these operations.

Common permissions map to actions as follows:

PermissionAffected actions
Create ProxyAdd a custom proxy or Proxy API
Edit ProxyEdit records, switch protocols, update names or notes, and view or copy sensitive proxy details
Delete ProxyDelete custom proxies, Proxy APIs, or removable synchronized proxies
Assign ProxyAssign browser profiles from a proxy list
Renew ProxyRenew an integrated proxy purchased through ZYBrowser or open the provider's renewal page

Never record real passwords or Proxy API URLs in names, notes, screenshots, or public documents. Before using a proxy, also make sure its egress location is consistent with the profile's time zone, language, and geolocation.
