π Country Targeting
Add thecountry_[ISO] flag to your username to target a specific country.
- Format:
country_[2-letter-code] - Example (France):
user_XXXX,country_FR - Reference:
https://dashboard.anyip.io/api/data/country
π Region & City Targeting
How to target a Region
You can specify a state or region within a country.- Format:
region_[name] - Note: You must specify the country first.
- Example:
user_XXXX,country_US,region_texas
How to find Region Names
You can find a list of regions via our API:https://dashboard.anyip.io/api/data/region/[COUNTRY_CODE]
country_US,region_californiacountry_US,region_newyorkcountry_GB,region_englandcountry_DE,region_bavaria
How to target a City
You can also target specific cities within a region.- Format:
city_[name] - Note: You must specify the country and region first.
- Example:
user_XXXX,country_US,region_texas,city_dallas
How to find City Names
You can find a list of cities via our API:https://dashboard.anyip.io/api/data/city/[COUNTRY_CODE]/[REGION_NAME]
country_US,region_california,city_losangelescountry_US,region_newyork,city_newyorkcountry_GB,region_england,city_londoncountry_DE,region_bavaria,city_munich
Why a city is missing from the list
The region and city lists show publicly available locations. Sometimes a city may not be available for a region, for example New York City, if access there is very limited. anyIP uses actual peer devices, and regions and cities are subject to change as peers join or leave the network. It is possible to try and target cities that are not on the lists. Add thecity_[name] flag with the country and region to your session.
Request a city
You can reach out to support from the dashboard if the city you are looking for is not on the lists. The support team will forward your request to the development team and add it to the request backlog. AnyIP is unfortunately not able to provide an estimated timeframe as to when the city will be added.How often locations are updated
Any-IP adds new IPs to their pools on a regular basis, including their United States residential IPs. There is no set schedule for when they do this or when new IPs are made available.π‘ Carrier & ASN Targeting
To target specific Internet Service Providers (ISPs) or Mobile Carriers using their ASN (Autonomous System Number), see the list below.- Format:
asn_[number] - Example (T-Mobile USA):
user_XXXX,country_US,asn_21928
- T-Mobile US: 21928
- Verizon US: 701
- AT&T US: 7018
- Vodafone UK: 13285
π GPS Coordinates
For more localized targeting, you can request an IP closest to given coordinates.- Format:
lat_[value],lon_[value] - Example (Eiffel Tower, Paris):
user_XXXX,lat_48.8584,lon_2.2945
We will assign the closest available peer to these coordinates. It is not guaranteed to be at that location.
πΊ Pre-defined Pools
We have pools that cover broader regions, and you can use them with thepool_XXX username.
π See the full Regional Pools Reference for complete country lists for all 19 available pools.
Verify the location of an IP
Depending on what IP geolocation service you use, the same IP can show different cities or countries. For example, one IP checker can show an IP target to Tel Aviv as being located in a different city in Israel. anyIP uses IP-API.com when verifying IP locations. To check your proxy IP against the same source:Narrow targeting and sticky sessions
Every flag you add (region, city, ASN) reduces the number of matching peers. If an IP in a sticky session goes offline, the session is assigned another available IP that matches your parameters. To increase the chance of keeping the same IP for longer, target the whole country withoutregion_, city_, or asn_. See Sticky vs. Rotating Sessions for session behavior.
If your targeting is too restrictive, you may receive a no_peers_available (502) from the proxy
β‘οΈ Performance: Choosing the Right Server
We have global entry nodes. Whileportal.anyip.io automatically sends you to the nearest one, you can specifically set the one you want to connect to if you are having latency issues.
Tip: If you are trying to scrape a US website from a server in Germany and want your request to go through our network closer to the target, connect to
portal-na.anyip.io to get better speeds.
