State

To get a proxy from a specific US state, add the st flag to the authorization string. For example, us_california, us_illinois. Click here for a complete list of US states.

Here are a few examples of valid combinations of state parameters:

st-us_california-city-los_angeles st-us_illinois-city-springfield st-us_michigan-city-detroit st-us_ohio-city-columbus st-us_maine-city-portland st-us_tennessee-city-memphis

Code example

In this example, a query to ip.oxylabs.io/location is performed from a random IP address from California, USA:

cURL

curl -x pr.oxylabs.io:7777 -U "customer-USERNAME-st-us_california:PASSWORD" https://ip.oxylabs.io/location

PHP

<?php
$username = 'USERNAME';
$password = 'PASSWORD';
$state = 'us_california';
$proxy = 'pr.oxylabs.io:7777';
$query = curl_init('https://ip.oxylabs.io/location');
curl_setopt($query, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($query, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://$proxy");
curl_setopt($query, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, "customer-$username-st-$state:$password");
$output = curl_exec($query);
curl_close($query);
if ($output)
    echo $output;
?>

Python

import urllib.request
import random
username = 'USERNAME'
password = 'PASSWORD'
state = 'us_california'
entry = ('http://customer-%s-st-%s:[e-mail]:7777' %
    (username, state, password))
query = urllib.request.ProxyHandler({
    'http': entry,
    'https': entry,
})
execute = urllib.request.build_opener(query)
print(execute.open('https://ip.oxylabs.io/location').read())

Java

package example;

import org.apache.http.HttpHost;
import org.apache.http.client.fluent.*;

public class Example {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        HttpHost entry = new HttpHost("pr.oxylabs.io", 7777);
        String query = Executor.newInstance()
            .auth(entry, "customer-USERNAME-st-us_california", "PASS")
            .execute(Request.Get("http://ip.oxylabs.io/location").viaProxy(entry))
            .returnContent().asString();
        System.out.println(query);
    }
}

C#

using System;
using System.Net;

class Example
{
    static void Main()
    {
        var client = new WebClient();
        client.Proxy = new WebProxy("pr.oxylabs.io:7777");
        client.Proxy.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("customer-USERNAME-st-us_california", "PASSWORD");
        Console.WriteLine(client.DownloadString("https://ip.oxylabs.io/location"));
    }
}

Ruby

require 'uri'
require 'net/http'

uri = URI.parse('https://ip.oxylabs.io/location')
proxy = Net::HTTP::Proxy('pr.oxylabs.io', 7777, 'customer-USERNAME-st-us_california', 'PASSWORD')

req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri.path)

result = proxy.start(uri.host,uri.port) do |http|
    http.request(req)
