Supported Proxy Connection Strings

Setting up proxies in Kameleo is quick and easy. You can use the standard connection string format supported by most proxy providers to speed up your configurations.

Kameleo’s Built-in Proxy Manager supports HTTP, SOCKS5, and SSH proxies. It handles authentication and advanced settings automatically when possible.

Using Connection Strings

Instead of filling in each field manually, you can paste a properly formatted string directly into Kameleo:

username:password@hostname:port

Example:

user:pass@server.com:6666

When pasted, Kameleo automatically extracts the details:

Host: server.com
Port: 6666
Username: user
Password: pass

Technical Notes

Keep in mind:

Passwords with special characters may need URL encoding
IPv6 addresses must be enclosed in square brackets
Domains with ports require the port number after the colon
Kameleo tries to detect proxy types automatically based on port conventions

This parsing feature saves time, especially when managing many browser profiles.
