Proxy management

Copy for LLM

To work with proxies in your Actor, you can use the Actor.create_proxy_configuration() method, which allows you to generate proxy URLs either for the Apify Proxy, or even for your own proxies, with automatic proxy rotation and support for sessions.

import asyncio
import httpx
from apify import Actor

async def main():
    async with Actor:
        # You can either set the proxy config manually
        proxy_configuration = await Actor.create_proxy_configuration(
            groups=['RESIDENTIAL'],
            country_code='US',
        )

        # --- OR ---
        # You can get the proxy config from the Actor input
        actor_input = await Actor.get_input()
        selected_proxy_config = actor_input['proxyConfiguration']
        proxy_configuration = await Actor.create_proxy_configuration(
            actor_proxy_input=selected_proxy_config,
        )

        # --- OR ---
        # You can use your own proxy servers
        proxy_configuration = await Actor.create_proxy_configuration(
            proxy_urls=[
                'http://my-proxy.com:8000',
                'http://my-other-proxy.com:8000',
            ],
        )

        proxy_url = await proxy_configuration.new_url(session_id='my_session')

        async with httpx.AsyncClient(proxies=proxy_url) as client:
            response = await client.get('http://example.com')
            await Actor.set_value('OUTPUT', response.text)
