Third-Party - OctoBrowser How To Set Up Proxies

Welcome to our tutorial! We're going to guide you through the process of setting up proxies in the OctoBrowser app. Whether you're interested in using HTTP Proxies or SOCKS5 Proxies, we've got you covered.

Step 1: Locating Your Proxy Details

To start, you'll need to find your proxy details including the proxy IP, port, username, and password. This information is typically located within your proxy service account, outside of the OctoBrowser.

1. Log into your proxy account.
2. Navigate to the section where your proxy details are listed, which could be under sections like Dedicated Proxies or Shared Proxies, depending on what you have purchased.

3. This will send you to the list of available proxies to purchase. To access your proxies, click on the button in the upper-right corner of the table labeled My Dedicated Proxies or My Dedicated SOCKS.

After navigating to your proxies, you'll be presented with a detailed view. In the main table, you'll find the IPs and ports for your proxies. On the right sidebar, the Proxy Credentials section displays your username and password. It's important to note that you have the option to change your proxy password if necessary.

Keep in mind that these Proxy Credentials are global. This means that any changes you make will apply to all your proxies, regardless of their type or service category.
