Proxy Integration
Browser Swarm provides flexible proxy integration options, allowing you to route your automation traffic through various proxy types to enhance anonymity, control geolocation, and improve reliability.
🧰 Proxy Configuration Options
With Browser Swarm, you can:
Use Built-in Proxies: Effortlessly route traffic through our managed residential proxies.
Bring Your Own Proxies: Utilize custom HTTP/HTTPS proxies for greater control over network routing.
Combine Multiple Proxies: Set custom routing rules to direct traffic through different proxies based on domain or location.
Proxies are configured when creating a session through the API or SDK.
Example
🌍 Geolocation Control
To simulate browsing from specific locations, you can configure proxies with geolocation settings:
This setup is particularly useful for testing localized content or accessing region-restricted websites.
⚙️ Advanced Proxy Routing
For more granular control, Browser Swarm allows domain-specific proxy routing:
This configuration directs traffic to specified domains through designated proxies, optimizing performance and reliability.
📊 Monitoring Proxy Usage
Track your proxy data consumption via the Browser Swarm Dashboard, which provides real-time insights into:
Data Usage: Monitor the amount of data transmitted through proxies.
Session Metrics: Analyze session durations, statuses, and resource consumption.
Geolocation Distribution: Visualize traffic distribution across different regions.
Regular monitoring helps in optimizing proxy usage and managing associated costs.
💡 Best Practices
Rotate Proxies: Regularly change proxies to avoid IP bans and maintain anonymity.
Use Residential Proxies: For higher success rates, especially when dealing with sophisticated anti-bot systems.
Monitor Performance: Keep an eye on proxy response times and success rates to ensure optimal performance.
By effectively integrating proxies into your browser automation workflows, Browser Swarm empowers you to navigate the web with enhanced control and reliability.
