The AlterCPA Pro / Cloud platform allows using proxies for postbacks, filters and exports, in integrations with advertisers, as well as in the operation of some built-in hacks (autologiner and fbpix).
Proxy entry structure
Any entry format can be roughly divided into three parts:
proto— the proxy protocol (HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, SOCKS4a, SOCKS5, SOCKS5h).host:port— the proxy address (IP or domain) and port number.-
user:pass— proxy authentication data. It can be onlyuser(depends on the proxy). Public proxies do not have authentication data.
Depending on the area of use and the proxy's characteristics, the entry format may vary.
Note. Pay special attention to SOCKS proxies with domains. Their protocol looks different than proxies with IP addresses.
Important! A proxy with an incorrect protocol or entry format will not work.
Format 1: proto://user:pass@host:port
Examples with different protocols:
- HTTP with IP address:
cathulhu:purrmeow@12.34.56.78:910 - HTTP with domain:
cathulhu:purrmeow@proxy-host.com:910 - HTTPS with IP address:
https://cathulhu:purrmeow@12.34.56.78:910 - HTTPS with domain:
https://cathulhu:purrmeow@proxy-host.com:910 - SOCKS4 with IP address:
socks4://cathulhu:purrmeow@12.34.56.78:910 - SOCKS4 with domain:
socks4a://cathulhu:purrmeow@proxy-host.com:910 - SOCKS5 with IP address:
socks5://cathulhu:purrmeow@12.34.56.78:910 - SOCKS5 with domain:
socks5h://cathulhu:purrmeow@proxy-host.com:910
Where applied: the fbpix hack.
Format 2: proto://host:port + user:pass
Entry in two separate fields.
Examples with different protocols:
- HTTP with IP address:
12.34.56.78:910 - HTTP with domain:
proxy-host.com:910 - HTTPS with IP address:
https://12.34.56.78:910 - HTTPS with domain:
https://proxy-host.com:910 - SOCKS4 with IP address:
socks4://12.34.56.78:910 - SOCKS4 with domain:
socks4a://proxy-host.com:910 - SOCKS5 with IP address:
socks5://12.34.56.78:910 - SOCKS5 with domain:
socks5h://proxy-host.com:910
Where applied: the autologiner hack, system-level proxies, integration-level proxies.
Format 3: proto://host:port:user:pass
Examples with different protocols:
- HTTP with IP address:
12.34.56.78:910:cathulhu:purrmeow - HTTP with domain:
proxy-host.com:910:cathulhu:purrmeow - HTTPS with IP address:
https://12.34.56.78:910:cathulhu:purrmeow - HTTPS with domain:
https://proxy-host.com:910:cathulhu:purrmeow - SOCKS4 with IP address:
socks4://12.34.56.78:910:cathulhu:purrmeow - SOCKS4 with domain:
socks4a://proxy-host.com:910:cathulhu:purrmeow - SOCKS5 with IP address:
socks5://12.34.56.78:910:cathulhu:purrmeow - SOCKS5 with domain:
socks5h://proxy-host.com:910:cathulhu:purrmeow
Where applied: the fbpix hack.
