Code examples

Drop-in snippets to start using Hydraproxy from your stack. Replace USER, PASS and the gateway with what you get from your dashboard.

# pip install requests
import requests

proxy = "http://USER:[email protected]:7777"
resp = requests.get(
    "https://httpbin.org/ip",
    proxies={"http": proxy, "https": proxy},
    timeout=10,
)
print(resp.json())

// npm install undici
import { fetch, ProxyAgent } from "undici";

const dispatcher = new ProxyAgent("http://USER:[email protected]:7777");
const resp = await fetch("https://httpbin.org/ip", { dispatcher });
console.log(await resp.json());

curl -x http://USER:[email protected]:7777 \
  https://httpbin.org/ip \
  --max-time 10

# scrapy-rotating-proxies works with any provider gateway
# settings.py:
DOWNLOADER_MIDDLEWARES = {
    "scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.httpproxy.HttpProxyMiddleware": 400,
}
HTTP_PROXY = "http://USER:[email protected]:7777"
HTTPS_PROXY = "http://USER:[email protected]:7777"

// npm install playwright
import { chromium } from "playwright";

const browser = await chromium.launch({
  proxy: {
    server: "http://gate.hydraproxy.com:7777",
    username: "USER",
    password: "PASS",

How to get started with Hydraproxy

A 5-minute walkthrough from sign-up to your first successful request. Total setup time: ~10 minutes.

1. 1

   Open an account & verify your inbox

   Create a Hydraproxy account at https://hydraproxy.com. Self-serve access is usually available immediately.

2. 2

   Pick a starter package

   Use the dashboard to choose between residential / datacenter / mobile. Start with the smallest plan to validate your workload before scaling.

3. 3

   Grab your endpoint + credentials

   Set up either an IP-whitelist auth or username:password pair from the dashboard. Save the proxy hostname + port into your scraper or browser config.

4. 4

   Set up session stickiness

   Decide between rotating-on-every-request (best for SERP scraping) or sticky sessions (best for account-based workflows).

5. 5

   Benchmark before committing

   Run 100-500 test requests against your real target before paying for volume. Compare success rate to Hydraproxy's claimed rate before committing to an annual plan.
