Restricting Zyte Smart Proxy Manager IPs to a specific region#
Zyte Smart Proxy Manager (formerly Crawlera) can be restricted to use proxies of a particular region in the following ways:
Selecting a region with region-specific API keys#
Make sure that you have a Smart Proxy Manager account.
2. Now, go to your Zyte Smart Proxy Manager Dashboard in Zyte, and click the “Create Account” button:
3. Next, under the “Create New Smart Proxy Manager Account”, select the regions from where you want to use the IPs, and create a new account.
Finally, find the API key for this new user in your project’s Smart Proxy Manager “Setup” page.
Note
Creating region-specific extra accounts doesn’t entail additional charges.
Selecting a region with the header#
Add X-Crawlera-Region
to request headers, with a country code in ISO format as the header’s value. For instance, to select
a French IP, use it as X-Crawlera-Region: FR
(or in lowercase, X-Crawlera-Region: fr
).
Note
This header is not available on legacy Crawlera plans (C10, C50, etc.)
