Proxy ip api: Proxy API interface development docking guide

What exactly is the Proxy API interface?

A lot of friends who just contacted the proxy IP is easy to think of the API interface is complicated, in fact, with the point of delivery is almost the same. You want to use the proxy IP, just like in the United States group order, API is that help you automatically take orders to send food brother. For example, if you use ipipgo's API to send a request to their server, you can immediately get a freshly baked proxy IP.

Here is a particularly real example: do e-commerce price monitoring program apes, every day to capture hundreds of thousands of times the data. If you change the IP manually, your hand will be cramped. With the API to automatically obtain the IP, the system itself can be recycled, saving the degree of trouble is comparable to a fully automatic washing machine.

Choosing a package is like choosing a milk tea

The ipipgo package looks much, in fact, according to the business needs to choose special simple. Remember the three keywords:Choose dynamic for flow type, static for fixed demand, and look up for enterprise level.The

To give a chestnut: do short video data collection team, every day to run a 500GB traffic, choose dynamic residential (Enterprise Edition) the most cost-effective. If you need to do overseas account operation fixed IP login, directly on the static residence, 35 dollars to ensure a month of stability.

 Python proxy IP example
import requests

api_url = "https://api.ipipgo.com/getip?key=你的密钥&count=5"
response = requests.get(api_url)
ip_list = response.json()['data']

 Pick a random IP to use
proxy = {
    'http': f'http://{ip_list[0]["ip"]}:{ip_list[0]["port"]}',
    'https': f'http://{ip_list[0]["ip"]}:{ip_list[0]["port"]}'
}

A guide to common pitfalls in docking

Newbies are most likely to plant in three places:Timeout settings, IP expiration handling, request frequency controlI've been working on a crawler for a while now. Last week, there was a brother who was doing a crawler, didn't set the timeout parameter, the program got stuck and crashed the server.

It's recommended to get it that way:
1. Timeout of at least 10 seconds
2. IP pool updated every 5 minutes
3. When the concurrency exceeds 100, use the IP rotation strategy

The 6 most common questions you ask

Q: What should I do if my proxy IP suddenly fails?
A: First check the validity of the license key, and then see whether the extracted IP exceeds the survival time. ipipgo's dynamic IP survives for 3 minutes by default, and it is recommended to set up a timed refresh mechanism.

Q: What is the difference between the Enterprise and Standard editions?
A: The main difference is in the number of concurrent requests and IP quality. The Enterprise Edition supports higher concurrent requests, and the IP pools are all commercial-grade residential resources, suitable for scenarios that require high stability

Q: What programming languages are supported for calling?
A: As long as you can send HTTP requests, Python/Java/PHP/Go mainstream languages have ready-made code examples, the official website can be directly downloaded!

A wild way to save the budget

Share a real case: there is an overseas questionnaire research studio, through the three tawdry operation to cut the cost of 60%:
1. Non-core business hours cut to dynamic standard version
2. Mission-critical static IP bindings
3. Reuse IPs with local caching

There's a hidden feature in ipipgo--Stacking of traffic packs. Buying 10 Dynamic Standard packages for $7.67 is cheaper than buying Enterprise outright for 141 TP3T for older drivers who can be finicky with their money.

Private advice from a techie guy

One last thing that won't be in the documentation:
1. Don't fight against CAPTCHA, change IP address is faster than cracking.
2. 3:00 a.m. APIs are the most responsive
3. ask customer service to exclusive SDK can write less 30% code
4. Weekly cards are more cost-effective than monthly cards for short-term projects

If you are not sure how to choose a package, you can directly find ipipgo's technical support to do the program. They can recommend the most suitable combination of proxies according to your business scenario, which is much more worrying than trying to figure it out by yourself.
