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 (or any other setup you're using), and run the command to make a basic request using a random cellular network IP address.
