Apify Proxy
Improve the performance of your web scrapers by smartly rotating datacenter and residential IP addresses.
Sometimes you need a helping hand from other IP addresses.
Proxies not only prevent blocking but also let you access content, which can vary based on your location.
Combine that with intelligent proxy rotation and take your scraping to the next level.
IP address rotation
Every scraping request is assigned a different IP, which lowers the chance of your activity being tracked or getting blocked. Our addresses are checked regularly, with dead or burned proxies automatically removed from the pool, ensuring healthy and reliable scraping sessions.
Seamless integration with the Apify platform
Apify proxies are an integral part of our platform’s ecosystem and are easy to set up through any actor’s input schema. You can then track your proxy sessions within Apify Console to monitor your usage and spending.
Are you building your own actor?
You can use the Apify SDK to quickly configure and use proxies both locally or within the Apify platform.

Frequently asked questions
When using scrapers from Apify Store, proxies are generally set to Automatic by default, with no further configuration necessary. If you’re building an actor with the Apify SDK and would like to implement Apify Proxy, you need to add the ProxyConfiguration class into your code.
Settings can be changed through Apify Console, where you can adjust parameters such as the type of proxy and its location. You can also input the URL of a custom proxy via the “Own proxies” tab.
Using proxy servers is legal, as is web scraping. You just need to make sure not to scrape data that is protected by copyright or contains sensitive information such as personal data.
If you have a paid plan, you can use our proxy for browsing the web or testing the target websites you would like to scrape. Simply install a proxy browser extension and input the Apify Proxy configuration.
