Apify

Apify is a cloud platform for web scraping and browser automation. It provides pre-built scrapers (Actors), a scalable infrastructure, and tools for managing crawling jobs. You can configure HypeProxy.io proxies for use with Apify Actors.

Setting Up HypeProxy.io with Apify

Using Proxy Configuration in an Actor

import { Actor } from 'apify';

await Actor.init();

const proxyConfiguration = await Actor.createProxyConfiguration({
    proxyUrls: [
        'http://username:password@fr.hypeproxy.host:port'
    ],
});

const crawler = new CheerioCrawler({
    proxyConfiguration,
    async requestHandler({ request, $ }) {
        // Your scraping logic here
    },
});

await crawler.run(['https://example.com']);
await Actor.exit();

In Actor Input (JSON)

{
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": false,
        "proxyUrls": [
            "http://username:password@fr.hypeproxy.host:port"
        ]
    }
}

Tips

  • Use HypeProxy.io mobile proxies for scraping social media and platforms with strict anti-bot protection.
  • Configure proxy rotation by adding multiple HypeProxy.io proxy URLs to the proxyUrls array.
  • Apify's auto-scaling works well with mobile proxies — requests are distributed across your proxy pool.
