Whitelist IP
How to whitelist your IP address.
Whitelisting your IP lets you access proxy services without re-entering credentials each time.
Key limits and requirements
- Authentication: Basic Auth (username:password encoded in Base64).
- IP limit: up to 150 whitelisted IPs per user.
- Batch size: up to 10 IPs per request (add/remove).
- Validation: the API rejects invalid or duplicate IPs.
- Rate limit: up to 100 requests per minute.

You can use either the dashboard (recommended for non-developers) or the API.

Remove an IP
