API keys are long-lived, account-level credentials you use to authenticate with the ProxyScrape Account API. Use them for scripts, automation, and server-side integrations. You can create and manage API keys from the dashboard or programmatically via the API. The dashboard is the easiest way to get started.

​
What are API keys?

  • 64-character secrets — Each key is a 64-character string returned once when you create it. Store it securely; you cannot retrieve the full secret again.
  • Account-level — Keys are tied to your ProxyScrape account (or subaccount) and can access multiple products according to the permissions you grant.
  • Multi-product — A single key can have permissions for datacenter, residential, residential_unlimited, SERP API, and subaccount management, depending on what your account is allowed to use.
