Your datacenter username and password are generated after an order is confirmed. Both HTTP/HTTPS and SOCKS5 connections use the same order credentials, but each protocol has its own port.

Find your credentials

  1. Sign in to the IpnProxy dashboard.
  2. Open Datacenter Access.
  3. Select an active order.
  4. Choose the protocol, session type, country and output format.
  5. Select Generate Proxies and copy the generated connection string.
The generator can return any of these formats:
  • hostname:port:username:password
  • hostname:port@username:password
  • username:password:hostname:port
  • username:password@hostname:port

Connection details

cURL examples

Using socks5h makes cURL resolve the destination hostname through the proxy instead of resolving it locally.

Troubleshooting

  • Confirm that the selected order has not expired.
  • Check that the application protocol matches the port you copied.
  • Remove spaces or line breaks accidentally copied with the credentials.
  • Generate a fresh connection string after changing the country, session type or output format.
  • Test the connection with the cURL examples above before configuring another application.
Treat proxy credentials like a password. Do not place them in public repositories, client-side code, screenshots or support messages visible to other users.
