Getting Started

Make a request to https://ip.oxylabs.io using a mobile proxy from a random location through our backconnect entry. Replace USERNAME and PASSWORD with your proxy user credentials. Keep in mind that each request returns a new IP address as Oxylabs Mobile Proxies rotate automatically.
curl -x pr.oxylabs.io:7777 -U "customer-USERNAME:PASSWORD" https://ip.oxylabs.io
Our Mobile Proxies support both, HTTP and HTTPS protocols. You can learn more about using them here.
Now make a request using a proxy from France. All you need to do is add cc-FR to your username string. Below is an example in cURL, and here you can find code samples in other languages.
curl -x pr.oxylabs.io:7777 -U "customer-USERNAME-cc-FR:PASSWORD" https://ip.oxylabs.io
If you need to keep the same proxy for more than one request, use session control. Add sessid-abc12345 to your username string, where abc12345 can be any random string, and as long as you keep sending requests with this string (session ID), you will get the same proxy IP. Learn more here.
curl -x pr.oxylabs.io:7777 -U "customer-USERNAME-sessid-randomString123:PASSWORD" https://ip.oxylabs.io
