Set up Linken Sphere 2
Download the Sphere browser from the official website, launch the app, and log in.
Enter proxy details
Type the Name of your proxy, select the proxy protocol (HTTP or SOCKS5), and enter your proxy details (ip:port@login:pass) according to the proxy types listed below.
To enter your Oxylabs proxy user’s credentials, use the same username and password you entered to create a new proxy user in the Oxylabs dashboard.
Protocol: HTTP or SOCKS5
IP: ddc.oxylabs.io
Port: 8001
Login: user-USERNAME
Pass: PASSWORD
Note: Don't forget to add user- prefix to your username.
For Self-Service Dedicated Datacenter Proxies, the port indicates the sequential number of an IP address from the acquired proxy list.
If you want to get a different IP with each request, change the Port to 8000 to enable proxy rotation.
Testing
To check proxy functionality, either click anywhere or on the dedicated proxy test button.
If the test is successful, a valid geolocation and its corresponding time zone will appear next to your proxy details.
Finally, click the green check mark (save proxy). You can add as many proxies as you like and pair or unpair them with different browser sessions.
Set proxies
A new profile uses a direct connection by default, so to use your proxies with browser sessions, select a profile (the boxes on the left) and click Set proxy.
In the pop-up window, use the boxes on the left to select the proxies you wish to set on the chosen profile(s) and click Set to finish proxy setup.
And that’s it. You’ve successfully integrated your Oxylabs proxies with the Linken Sphere browser. You can find the original Linken Sphere browser integration blog post here.
