Overview Introduction
The Endpoint Generator is your primary tool for creating proxy endpoints in the Fusion Proxy dashboard. It allows you to configure authentication, rotation settings, geographic targeting, and output formats - all in one place.
Step 1 Accessing the Endpoint Generator
To access the Endpoint Generator:
- Log in to your Fusion Proxy dashboard
- Navigate to "Residential Proxies" from the sidebar
- The Endpoint Generator tab is selected by default
Step 2 Authentication Settings
Your proxy credentials are displayed in the Authentication section. These are read-only for security:
- Username: Your unique proxy username
- Password: Your proxy password (can be rotated in Account Settings)
Click the copy icon next to each field to copy the value to your clipboard.
Step 3 Location Settings
Target specific geographic locations for your proxy requests:
- Country: Select from 190+ countries
- State/Region: Available for countries with regional targeting
- City: Target specific cities within a state (where available)
Leave fields empty for automatic optimal routing.
Step 4 Session Settings
Configure how your proxy sessions behave:
| Session Type | Description | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Rotating | New IP for each request | Web scraping, data collection |
| Sticky | Same IP for specified duration | Account management, shopping carts |
Step 5 Sticky Session Duration
When using Sticky sessions, set the duration your IP will remain the same:
- Minimum: 1 minute
- Maximum: 120 minutes
- Use the +/- buttons or type directly
Step 6 Protocol Selection
Choose your connection protocol:
- HTTP/HTTPS: Standard web protocol, works with most applications
- SOCKS5: Lower-level protocol with better performance for some use cases
Step 7 Generating Proxy Lists
Use the Formatted Proxy List section to generate multiple proxies:
- Select your preferred format
- Enter the quantity (1-5000)
- Click "Generate"
- Copy or download the list
| Format | Example |
|---|---|
| hostname:port:user:pass | resi.fusionproxy.net:12286:user:pass |
| user:pass@hostname:port | user:[email protected]:12286 |
| scheme://user:pass@host:port | http://user:[email protected]:12286 |
Step 8 Testing Your Proxy
Use the displayed cURL command to test your proxy configuration:
curl -x http://resi.fusionproxy.net:12286 -U "username-country-us:password" ipinfo.ioSummary Conclusion
The Endpoint Generator simplifies proxy configuration by providing a visual interface for all settings. Once you've configured your endpoint, you can copy the settings directly into your application or download a formatted list for bulk use.
