Hot to Configure a Proxy in The Extension

The plugin supports proxies with authentication (with the login and the pass) and without it. But due the impossibility of writing the login and the pass of SOCKS 5 protocol, you can set up only HTTP(S) ip-address. For using SOCKS 5 IPs, install program Proxifier.

Configuring with a click of a button

If it's all clear with standard setting up a proxy server, where is the promise of configuring with a once click? You will see it down. It is called “Add new proxy (from API)”. Get your API-key in Your Account in the tab “API keys”. There are both general key for all proxies and API for separate orders. It enables you to deal with problems with structuring and organisation of work with a large amount of proxy servers

So, copy your key, insert in a field and choose or certain ip-addresses of the list of your orders or an account, or add all IPs to the general list and then choose a proper proxy from it.
