Route your tool
through one gateway.

Every guide points a different runtime at the same endpoint, gw.databay.co:8888. Pick the tool you use and copy a setup that keeps country, session and browser identity aligned.

Choose the guide that matches your runtime

Each runtime attaches proxy settings in a different place. Every guide below maps the tool's native controls to the same gateway, then keeps pool, country and session aligned.

  • Multi-profile browser

    Incogniton

    Per-profile HTTP or SOCKS5 setup, bulk profile creation, country targeting and stable sessions.

    Profile editor -> Databay gateway -> pinned residential exit

    Playwright

    Launch-level and per-context proxies across Chromium, Firefox and WebKit, with rotation patterns.

    Browser process -> isolated contexts -> independent exit sessions

  • Crawler framework

    Scrapy

Shared contract

The tool changes. The gateway grammar does not.

Every guide resolves to the same three decisions: where traffic enters, which pool and geography it should use, and whether the exit must stay attached to an identity.

  • One endpoint for HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5
  • Pool and geography selected in the username
  • Sticky identity for up to 120 minutes
  • Country targeting across 200+ countries, no surcharge
Browse proxy locations
01 / Gatewaygw.databay.co:8888

One host and port for HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5.

02 / Routing policyUSER-zone-{pool}-countryCode-{cc}-sessionId-{identity}

Pool, geography and persistence live in the username.

03 / Verificationcurl --proxy http://gw.databay.co:8888 https://httpbin.org/ip

Check the exit from the same runtime that will run the job.

Control plane

Automate the setup around the runtime

Use the REST API to provision proxy users, manage IP whitelists, read bandwidth and query locations. Your browser or crawler still connects over the same gateway.

  • Create, update and delete proxy users
  • Monitor bandwidth usage and traffic logs
  • Manage IP whitelists for static workers
  • Query countries, cities and ASNs across 200+ countries

Setup FAQ

Gateway questions, answered

Which protocols do Databay proxies support?
HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5, all on the same gateway (gw.databay.co:8888). Pick whichever your tool speaks; there are no separate endpoints or protocol surcharges.
Do I need a special client or SDK?
No. Databay uses standard proxy protocols, so any software with proxy support (browsers, scrapers, automation frameworks, even OS-level network settings) connects without extra libraries. The guides above are configuration, not custom code.
How do sticky sessions work?
By default every new connection gets a fresh IP from the pool. To keep one IP, add a session parameter to your proxy username and the gateway pins that IP for up to 120 minutes on residential and mobile pools.
Can I target specific countries?
Yes, append a country code to the proxy username (for example USER-zone-residential-countryCode-us) to exit from any of 200+ countries. Geo-targeting is included at no extra cost.
