Follow these steps to configure and integrate the Scrapingbypass API V1 into your automated workflows.
1. Account Registration
Create your developer account at the Scrapingbypass API Dashboard:
https://console.scrapingbypass.com/#/proxy/account
2. Purchase Credit Packages
Access the Billing or Package section in the dashboard to acquire credits.
- Trial Access: New users can typically apply for a trial credit package via the "Promotion" or "Trial" tab in the dashboard to test technical compatibility before a full purchase.
- Billing Logic: V1 consumes 1 credit per successful request.
3. Using the Code Generator
The Code Generator is the primary tool for debugging and generating integration snippets.
- Distinguishing V1 vs. V2: * V1: Used for standard bypass requirements. It is selected by default or identified when the
partparameter is absent.- V2: Specifically designed for complex JavaScript challenges and Turnstile. You can switch between versions via the toggle in the dashboard's configuration panel.
- Validation: Use the "Test Request" button to ensure the target URL is successfully bypassed and the expected HTML/JSON payload is returned.
4. Integration into Custom Scripts
Once your test passes in the Code Generator, migrate the logic to your production environment:
- Copy the Generated Code: Select your preferred language (Python, Node.js, Go, etc.) from the generator and copy the snippet.
- Replace Placeholders: Ensure your
Proxy-Authorization(User-Pass) andAPI Keyare correctly mapped to your environment variables. - Endpoint Configuration: Point your requests to the V1 API endpoint as specified in the generated code:
http://api.scrapingbypass.com/v1/get(or the equivalent POST endpoint). - Error Handling: Implement retry logic for 403 or 503 errors to handle transient network issues, keeping in mind that failed requests do not consume credits.
Integration Tip
Always maintain consistent User-Agent and TLS Fingerprint settings between your test environment and your production script to ensure the highest bypass success rate.
