Connecting Oxylabs proxies
IMPORTANT!
When using some Oxylabs proxy types (Residential Proxies, Mobile Proxies, Shared Datacenter Proxies) some key domains might become unavailable, e. g., Google and its services.
You can find more information about this in the Oxylabs Documentation.

Login and password fields
You can find the login and password in your Oxylabs personal account.
Click on the proxy type you would like to add to an Octo Browser profile in your personal Oxylabs account, and go to the Users tab.
Then create a user with a login and a password, or use an already existing user.
Here’s a login field example
customer-Login-sessid-1234ABC
customer - necessary to use at the beginning of the login string
Login - username of the user you’ve created
sessid - session ID necessary for the IP address to stay constant
1234ABC - session ID string, use random values
You can learn more about all possible login field parameters in the Oxylabs documentation.
Fill in the data in the corresponding fields in the profile proxy settings:
