Protocols

Our Customer Support team is available 24/7 - reach out through support@oxylabs.io or via our live chat. They will assist you in activating SOCKS5 protocol for your account. By default, the HTTP protocol is enabled.

HTTP

Our documentation includes code examples showcasing how to connect to the proxies using HTTP protocol. The protocol is supported by common libraries and third-party software.

SOCKS5

For using SOCKS5 protocol, you have to add socks5h in your request, for example:

curl -x socks5h://1.2.3.4:1180 -U USERNAME:PASSWORD ip.oxylabs.io
