How to Use curl with Proxy for Secure and Anonymous Requests?

20 Replies, 2009 Views

Hey, I’ve been using curl with proxy for a while now, and it’s been a lifesaver. The `-x` flag is correct, and it works with HTTPS proxies as long as the proxy supports it.

For authentication, `-U` is fine, but you can also use `--proxy-user`. If you’re dealing with sensitive data, avoid hardcoding credentials in the command.

Also, check out https://httpbin.org/ for testing your curl commands. It’s a great tool for debugging and learning.
