Crawler Proxy API: Pay-Per-Volume IP Interface Access Development Documentation

Hands-on with the ipipgo proxy interface

Recently, a lot of friends who do data collection complained to me, saying that every time the docking agent service providers have to re-examine the documentation is particularly troublesome. Today we will take the ipipgo family pay-per-use interface as an example to teach everyone how to quickly get started. Pay attention to the key parts, guaranteed you less detour.

Three Steps to Interface Certification

The first thing to do is to get the access credentials, in the ipipgo backend of theDeveloper CenterThe API key is created in the Here's a pitfall to be aware of: the key expiration date is permanent by default, but it's recommended to change it periodically to be more secure.

These two parameters must be included in the request header:
AuthorizationFill in your key
Content-TypeFixed with application/json

How to choose between dynamic and static

There are two types of residential IPs in ipipgo, and newbies who can't figure out the difference are at a disadvantage:

Take a real case: a price comparison system team, with a static IP access to the target site, resulting in frequent ban. change to dynamic IP, the success rate of the request directly from 40% to 92% soared.

A guide to request parameters to avoid the pitfalls

These are the most overlooked parameters in the interface documentation:

• region_filter: Precise location screening down to the city level, don't be a fool and use national parameters
• isp_blacklist: Remember to use this when encountering operator-specific 403 errors
• session_ttl: Set the session hold time to never exceed 30 minutes!

I've seen people mis-match Australian IPs to Austria, and as a result, the collection data is all messed up. When using ipipgo's area code table, it is recommended to test a few IPs first to verify the geographic location.

Common Troubleshooting Manual

Q: What should I do if I return 403 Forbidden?
A: First check the whitelist settings, then try different carriers. A customer can't connect to mobile broadband, but when he switches to telecom, it's normal immediately.

Q: The acquired IP cannot access the target website?
A: Eighty percent of the IP is pulled by the target station. In the request parameter addretry_count=3The system will automatically change the IP address 3 times.

Q: What should I do if the latency goes up and down?
A: Try turning onlatency_optimizeparameter, the system will automatically optimize the low latency node. Measured can drop more than 50ms

Tips for Advanced Players

A few hidden tricks have been discovered over time:
1. The highest success rate for requests is between 3 and 6 a.m., when the network is less congested.
2. With ipipgoASN Bindingfunction, you can specify the IP segment of an autonomous system
3. Don't panic when you encounter a CAPTCHA, add it to the request header.X-Captcha-Bypass: trueTrigger intelligent bypass mechanisms

Finally, to remind novice friends, do not try to save trouble directly copy the sample code. Each project has different business scenarios, and the parameter combinations need to be debugged repeatedly. It is recommended to use free credits to test the actual effect of IP in different regions, and then on the production environment. If you encounter problems that can't be solved, directly find ipipgo's technical support, their response speed is much faster than most vendors.
