Using GrabzIt behind a Proxy

In order to use GrabzIt from behind a proxy you must specify your proxy connection settings. To make this even simpler we have made a wizard below. Just enter the proxy details in the form below and then press the Generate button to create the proxy address. If you want to create captures from a proxy server in another part of the world then you need to follow these instructions instead.

IP Address

Port

Username

Enter the username if required

Password

Enter the password if required

Using the Proxy Address

Once you have generated the proxy address above, an example of using a local proxy will appear for every programming language we currently support with local proxies, below. The JavaScript API will not be effected because all of its requests will go via the browser.

ASP.NET
Java
Node.js
PHP
Python
Ruby

GrabzItClient grabzIt = new GrabzItClient("Sign in to view your Application Key", "Sign in to view your Application Secret");
grabzIt.SetLocalProxy("");

grabzIt.URLToImage("http://www.spacex.com");
grabzIt.Save("http://www.example.com/Home/Handler");

GrabzItClient grabzIt = new GrabzItClient("Sign in to view your Application Key", "Sign in to view your Application Secret");
grabzIt.SetLocalProxy("");

grabzIt.URLToImage("http://www.spacex.com");
grabzIt.Save("http://www.example.com/handler");

var grabzit = require('grabzit');

var client = new grabzit("Sign in to view your Application Key", "Sign in to view your Application Secret");
client.set_local_proxy("");

client.url_to_image("http://www.spacex.com");
client.save("http://www.example.com/handler", function (error, id){
    if (error != null){
        throw error;
    }
});

$grabzIt = new \GrabzIt\GrabzItClient("Sign in to view your Application Key", "Sign in to view your Application Secret");
$grabzIt->SetLocalProxy("");

$grabzIt->URLToImage("http://www.spacex.com");
$grabzIt->Save("http://www.example.com/handler.php");

grabzIt = GrabzItClient.GrabzItClient("Sign in to view your Application Key", "Sign in to view your Application Secret")
grabzIt.SetLocalProxy("")

grabzIt.URLToImage("http://www.spacex.com")
grabzIt.Save("http://www.example.com/handler.py")

grabzIt = GrabzIt::Client.new("Sign in to view your Application Key", "Sign in to view your Application Secret")
grabzIt.set_local_proxy("")

grabzIt.url_to_image("http://www.spacex.com")
grabzItClient.save("http://www.example.com/handler/index")
