Proxifier is a network gateway that allows applications that do not support working through proxy servers to operate through a SOCKS or HTTPS proxy. Using Proxifier with Nimble, you can selectively route specific applications through residential IPs without redirecting all your traffic through the proxy network.

Follow these steps to integrate Nimble

1

Install Proxifier

  • Download and install Proxifier from proxifier.com
  • Launch Proxifier after installation
This guide uses Windows as an example, but macOS follows the same configuration steps.
2

Add Nimble proxy server

  • Navigate to ProfileProxy Servers
  • Click Add to create a new proxy server
  • Enter the following server details:
    • Address: ip.nimbleway.com
    • Port: 7000
    • Protocol: HTTPS
3

Configure authentication

  • Enable the Authentication checkbox
  • Select Username and Password
  • Enter your credentials:
    • Username: your pipeline username
    • Password: your pipeline password
  • In the Nimble User Dashboard, navigate to the Pipelines page to get your credentials.
4

Verify connection

  • Click Check to test the connection
  • You should see a success message confirming the proxy is working
  • Click OK to save your configuration
We recommend you do not set Nimble IP as your default proxy server to avoid routing all traffic through the proxy unnecessarily.

Adding proxy rules

You can configure which applications use the Nimble proxy:
  1. Go to ProfileProxification Rules
  2. Click Add to create a new rule
  3. Configure the rule:
    • Name: Give your rule a descriptive name
    • Applications: Select specific applications to route through the proxy
    • Target hosts: Optionally specify domains or ports
    • Action: Select your Nimble proxy server
This allows you to route only specific applications (like browsers or scraping tools) through Nimble while keeping other traffic direct.

DNS configuration

For optimal performance, configure DNS resolution through Nimble:
  1. Go to ProfileName Resolution
  2. Select Resolve hostnames through proxy
  3. Click OK to save
This ensures DNS queries are also routed through Nimble’s infrastructure.
