Selenium · PROXY SETUP

Selenium proxy setup

Browser automation across Chrome, Firefox and Edge. Point it at the Eveses residential pool with the configuration below — the geo lives in the username, so nothing else in your setup has to change to move country.

Watch out

Chrome's `--proxy-server` flag cannot carry a username and password — Chrome shows a native auth dialog that Selenium cannot type into. Either whitelist your IP in the dashboard and use the flag unauthenticated, or ship a tiny extension that answers the auth challenge.

Configuration

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options

opts = Options()
# Works only with IP whitelisting — Chrome ignores user:pass in this flag.
opts.add_argument("--proxy-server=http://proxy.eveses.com:12321")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=opts)

# With credentials, use Firefox instead — it accepts them via a profile:
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options as FxOptions
fx = FxOptions()
fx.set_preference("network.proxy.type", 1)
fx.set_preference("network.proxy.http", "proxy.eveses.com")
fx.set_preference("network.proxy.http_port", 12321)
fx.set_preference("network.proxy.ssl", "proxy.eveses.com")
fx.set_preference("network.proxy.ssl_port", 12321)

Notes for Selenium

Whitelist the machine's IP in the cabinet if you use the Chrome flag.

Selenium Wire is the usual workaround for authenticated Chrome, at the cost of an in-process mitm proxy.

The geo and the session live in the username, not in the host or the port. Every configuration on this page stays exactly as it is when you move country — you edit one string. 199 countries are addressable, with city and state tokens inside most of them.

FAQ

How do I set a proxy in Selenium?›
Point it at proxy.eveses.com on port 12321 for HTTP, or 32325 for SOCKS5, and authenticate with your Eveses proxy username and password. The exact syntax is in the snippet above. Chrome's `--proxy-server` flag cannot carry a username and password — Chrome shows a native auth dialog that Selenium cannot type into. Either whitelist your IP in the dashboard and use the flag unauthenticated, or ship a tiny extension that answers the auth challenge.
How do I choose the country Selenium exits from?›
Append a geo token to the USERNAME rather than changing the host: eveses_user_country-de reaches Germany, eveses_user_country-us the United States. 199 countries are addressable this way, and city or state tokens narrow it further. Nothing else in your Selenium configuration changes.
How do I keep the same IP across requests in Selenium?›
Add a session token — eveses_user_country-us_session-ab12cd34_lifetime-30m — and every request carrying that username exits from the same address until the lifetime runs out. Drop the token and each request rotates to a fresh IP.
What does this cost?›
Residential traffic is billed by the gigabyte from your Eveses wallet: $7.35/GB at 1 GB, falling to $2.57/GB in volume. There is no per-tool charge, and the same credentials work in every tool at once.
