Using Proxy And User Agent In BotChiefEditor?

Hi i was wondering how to use the Proxy And User Agent In BotChiefEditor?

Using a variable doesn't seem to be working. Is there a tutorial or video for this somewhere?

Hi, there are some way you can set proxy and UserAgent.

UserAgent>>

1. you can set this directly in the editor for your module.

2. you can use SetUseragent action to set useragent when the bot is running.

Proxy >>

1. You can leave the proxy empty and set the proxy when run the bot in botchief or outputted alone program.

2. You can use proxySet action to set proxy when the bot is runing.

I know what both of these do but what i want to know is how to set them up.

For example if i setup a variable and set the value as a IP it doesn't always let me select it, if it does it still does not work. However for a proxy you need a IP and a Port and when the ProxySet just takes a single variable it's not clear how to make it work.

Could you provide some steps or a video on how i can setup a Proxy so that if i use the visit url option it's actually using the proxy because im confused as to how i can set it up when there is just a variable input and not a input for the IP and Port. It would have been easy if you could just input the values rather than needing to setup variables.

Also is it possible to have a list of IPs and randomly pick one?

Thanks for your help

I think i just figured it out you just use it like IP:Port and it seems to work but a bit slow connecting though thats probably the proxy i guess.

Good to see you got it work.

Yes, the format is ip:port or ip:port:username:password

And you can put your proxies in a table and use them orderly or randomly

how do i set it to use a SOCKS5 proxy? I've tried all, like socks5.IPADRESS:80, tried socks5://ipadress.80... can't figure how to use it, is there a way? TY! :)

BotChief can only use http proxy now, can't use socks5 proxy.
