An account is required on Linode in order to generate proxies. No minimum deposit is required, however, a credit card on file is needed. Regions include India, Canada, Australia, United States, United Kingdom, Singapore, Germany, and Japan.
Once an account is created, go to the following page to access and create your API key.
Select Add a Personal Access Token to generate an API token.
In the next step, you will need to create a Label for your API key and enable Read/Write access to
All Options. Click the Select All to enable all features.
Your API token will now be available. Be sure to save this token in your Essentials settings under
the Linode option.
You can now select the arrow to navigate to the Proxy Region Selection.
To generate proxies, select Generate Proxies.
Select Lindoe and click Continue.
Input your Linode API key or select Use Default Settings to carry over your API saved in your
Linode Settings. Click Continue.
Select the number of proxies you want to generate. If you would like to set an expiration date for
the proxies to terminate, select the option and set a timeframe. If you do not wish to use this
option, unselect it. Click Generate.
Essentials will now look like this. Please note it may take a few minutes for your proxies to
generate and turn on.
Essentials will list all your proxies for each provider under your Proxy History in addition to
having the ability to copy your proxies directly to your bots, test proxies and also delete all
proxies.
Please note that your Linode account may have a limit on the number of proxies you can create, in
order to increase this limit you would have to contact their support and ask for a limit increase.
