City

ByteZero mobile proxies let you refine your proxy location to a specific city. By appending the city parameter to your credentials, you ensure that your traffic originates from a mobile IP located in the desired city. For optimal accuracy, it is recommended to use city targeting in combination with country targeting. All geo-location details are retrieved from ipinfo.io.

How It Works

To target a city, include the city parameter in your credentials. Provide the city name in English. For cities with multiple words, replace spaces with underscores.

Query Parameter

Parameter	Description	Example
city	City name in English. For multi-word cities, replace spaces with underscores. It is best used together with the `cc` parameter for improved accuracy.	city-new_york, city-los_angeles

Example Credential Structure

For example, if you wish to target New York in the United States, your credentials should be formatted as follows: user-USERNAME-cc-US-city-new_york:PASSWORD

This instructs ByteZero to select a mobile proxy IP from New York when processing your requests.

Making a Request

When using city targeting, direct your traffic through the ByteZero mobile proxy endpoint: mobile-bridge.bytezero.io

Your request will then retrieve geo-location data from ipinfo.io.

cURL Example

Python Example

import requests

proxy = {
    'http': 'http://user-USERNAME-cc-US-city-new_york:PASSWORD@mobile-bridge.bytezero.io:7777',
    'https': 'http://user-USERNAME-cc-US-city-new_york:PASSWORD@mobile-bridge.bytezero.io:7777'
}

response = requests.get('https://ipinfo.io/', proxies=proxy)
print(response.text)

By combining the city parameter with the cc parameter, you can precisely control the geographic origin of your ByteZero mobile proxy requests.
