Start by registering an account on the Oxylabs dashboard. Purchase a plan and create a proxy user.

Make a cURL request

Once you have the proxy user set up, you’ll be directed to a screen with a cURL that you can copy:

curl 'https://ip.oxylabs.io/location' -U 'customer-USERNAME:PASSWORD' -x 'pr.oxylabs.io:7777'

Replace the USERNAME and PASSWORD with the proxy user credentials you’ve just created, paste the code into your terminal (or any other setup you're using), and run the command to make a basic request using a random cellular network IP address.

Check out this video guide for a quick reference:

Check our documentation for comprehensive information on setup, including location parameters, entry nodes, response codes, and more.

Location and session parameters

If you want to connect to a Mobile Proxy located in a specific country or city, visit the Location settings page in our documentation. All of these geo-targeting options are free of charge:

  • Continent

  • Country

  • City

  • State

  • Coordinates

  • ASN Targeting

To extend your session time for a specific IP address, see this Session Control page.

Integration guides

In case you want to use a proxy manager or other third-party software, see this integrations page for step-by-step instructions. There, you’ll find integration guides for the most popular third-party applications.

Endpoint generator

The Endpoint generator allows you to quickly create and receive a list of endpoints by choosing the parameters you need. You can find in-depth steps on how to use it on this Endpoint generator page.
