Best Practices for Using a curl Proxy: How to Set It Up and Avoid Common Issues?

7 Replies, 1586 Views

Curl proxy setups are a game-changer, but yeah, they can be a headache. I’ve been using them for testing webhooks, and the biggest issue I’ve faced is DNS resolution.

If you’re having DNS issues, try using `--resolve` in your curl command. It forces curl to use a specific IP for a domain, which can bypass some proxy issues.

Also, don’t forget to check your proxy’s location. I’ve had issues where the proxy was in a different region, and it messed up my requests.
