Send Your First Request - Oculus Proxies Documentation

To get started, you need your proxy credentials, your Username, Password along with the Port. You can find these credentials in the configured list.

Code Examples

Once you have your proxy credentials, use the following code to send your first request:

curl --proxy [login]:[password].oculus-proxy.com:[port] http://httpbin.org/ip

package main

    Origin string `json:"origin"`
}

        Transport: &http.Transport{
            Proxy: http.ProxyURL(proxy),
        },
        Timeout: 5 * time.Second,
    }
    resp, err := client.Get("http://httpbin.org/ip")
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Printf("Error occurred while testing proxy %s: %s\n", proxy.String(), err)
        return

    defer resp.Body.Close()

            return

        var ipResp IPResponse
        if err := json.Unmarshal(body, &ipResp); err != nil {

        'password' => '[password]',
    ];

The code above uses the residential proxy to send a request to http://httpbin.org/ip. It returns your IP information:

{
  "origin": "1.2.3.4"
}

Now, replace http://httpbin.org/ip with the website of your choice and that’s it!
