Purpose
Use Set Proxy when your workflow needs traffic routed through an HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5 proxy.
How it works
- UScraper extracts the first Set Proxy block before building the execution graph.
- The proxy is applied to browser startup configuration.
- The block is not executed as a normal graph step.
Configuration fields
| Field | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Proxy Type | No | none | none, HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5. |
| Proxy Host | No | - | Hostname or IP address for the proxy. |
| Proxy Port | No | - | Port number from 1 to 65535. |
Usage notes
- Use proxies only when they are compliant with the target site's rules and your data obligations.
- If multiple Set Proxy blocks exist, the first one is used.
- Use Set Window Size separately when you need consistent responsive layouts.
Caveats
- Username and password proxy authentication is not supported. Use IP-whitelisted proxies.
