Whitelisting

Learn how to create or edit an IP whitelist for Oxylabs datacenter proxies.

Authenticate your IPs by creating the IP whitelist on the dashboard. Log in to your account and navigate to Datacenter Proxies → Whitelist → Edit whitelist, and then add up to 10 IPs in IPv4 format (xx.xx.xx.xx).

With IP Whitelisting you can provide country parameter in username field. When executing cURL command - do not forget to add a ":" at the end of username string to prevent cURL from asking for a password.

curl -x dc.oxylabs.io:8000 -U 'country-US:' https://ip.oxylabs.io/location

When adding an IP address to the whitelist, ensure that it belongs exclusively to you, and avoid connecting through Proxy or VPN services.

If you're using services like Amazon Web Services (AWS), we highly recommend using username and password authentication over relying solely on IP whitelisting.
