Does it support WSS proxies?

Published Updated

No, ScrapingBypass currently does not support the WSS (WebSocket Secure) proxy protocol for connecting to the proxy host.

Currently, we exclusively support the following industry-standard proxy protocols:

  • HTTP
  • SOCKS5

Technical Recommendation

If your application requires WebSocket connections (WS or WSS) to a target website, you can still route that traffic through our proxies. However, your client or scraper must be configured to connect to the ScrapingBypass gateway using the HTTP or SOCKS5 protocol. Most modern libraries (such as Puppeteer, Playwright, or Python websockets) support tunneling WebSocket traffic through standard HTTP/SOCKS5 proxies.

Important Connectivity Notes

  • HTTPS-over-Proxy: Please note that we do not support direct connections to the proxy host via HTTPS. Always use HTTP or SOCKS5 to establish the proxy tunnel.
Does it support SSL or SMTP? Does it support TCP or UDP protocols?
