This guide assumes you have already created your first Mobile Proxy. The process is very similar to using Residential proxies, but with additional targeting capabilities.

​
Your Connection Credentials

Navigate to your proxy’s settings page in the My Proxies dashboard to get your Host, Port, Username, and Password.

​
Example: Getting an IP from T-Mobile in the US

Let’s make a request through a T-Mobile IP address in the United States on an Android device. We’ll do this by adding the -country-us, -carrier-tmobile, and -os-android parameters to your username. 
# Replace with your actual credentials
USERNAME="PROXY_USERNAME-country-us-carrier-tmobile-os-android"
PASSWORD="PROXY_PASSWORD"
HOST="proxy.2extract.net:5555"

curl "https://api.ipify.org?format=json" \
  --proxy "http://${USERNAME}:${PASSWORD}@${HOST}"
The response will be a JSON object containing an IP address from T-Mobile’s network in the US.
You’ve now mastered the basics of mobile targeting! For a full list of carriers and parameters, check out our Configuration Guide.
