Example: Get My Proxy List
Here is a simple Node.js example that retrieves the list of proxies in your account:
var request = require('request');
var options = {
method: 'GET',
url: 'https://thesocialproxy.com/wp-json/lmfwc/v2/licenses/customer/user-licenses/?consumer_key={CONSUMER_KEY}&consumer_secret={CONSUMER_SECRET}&page={PAGE_NO}&proxy_format={HOST:PORT@USERNAME:PASSWORD}',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
};
request(options, function (error, response) {
if (error) throw new Error(error);
console.log(response.body);
});
In this example, the request library is used to make a GET request to The Social Proxy’s API. The API key (CONSUMER_KEY) and secret (CONSUMER_SECRET) authenticate the request. The page parameter allows pagination through multiple proxies, and the format for proxy details is specified.
By implementing these examples and benefits, you can make full use of The Social Proxy’s API for your scraping and proxy management tasks.
