How it works

To make Unlocker Proxy as simple as possible to integrate, we’ve designed a standard, proxy-style connection API that makes it seamless to move from residential proxies to Unlocker Proxy. Behind the scenes, Unlocker Proxy automates the key technologies needed to execute the request and bypass anti-bots, including:
  • Fingerprinting engine - automatic management of TLS fingerprints, canvas checking, headers, cookies, and more.
  • Fully-managed infrastructure - serverless cloud environments allow for flexible and infinite scalability, managed for you by Nimble.
  • Built-in Proxies - Nimble IP provides premium networking infrastructure with high quality and performance IPs.
Unlocker Proxy usage is charged according to the Nimble API pricing per Requests and not per GB Make sure you review your plan and monitor usage via your Nimble Dashboard.
