Programmatic control over every IP and session

Dashboards are great for humans; agents and pipelines need an API. LightningBytes exposes session control, IP rotation, manual changes, geo-targeting and subuser management through a clean HTTP API, so your code owns the full proxy lifecycle without a human in the loop.

How the developer API works

Own the full IP lifecycle from code

Automation needs to control its own IPs: create a sticky session for a login flow, rotate IPs across parallel workers, change an IP when a target throttles, or set geo-targeting per request. Doing this by hand in a dashboard doesn't scale, and agents can't do it at all.

LightningBytes exposes session lifecycle, rotation, fresh IPs on demand via session id regeneration, geo-targeting and subuser management through a clean HTTP API. The same settings you set in the dashboard are scriptable, so scrapers, agent frameworks and CI pipelines can manage their own proxy state end to end.

  • Create and rotate sessions
  • Fresh IP on demand
  • Set country/state/city per request
  • Manage subusers and allocations
Features

Everything that powers developer api

Pre-filtered clean IPs, precise targeting and full protocol support, built for reliable work at scale.

Session control

Create, rotate and regenerate session ids from code, sticky or rotating per call.

Fresh IP on demand

Regenerate a session id via the dashboard when a target throttles, with no manual dashboard work.

Per-request rotation

Fan out parallel workers across fresh clean IPs from a single API call.

Geo per request

Set country, state or city on each request for region-accurate data.

Subuser management

Create subusers, allocate traffic and rotate secrets programmatically.

Clean IPs by default

Every API-provisioned IP comes from the quality-filtered, ethically sourced pool.

Unlimited concurrency

Run as many API-driven sessions in parallel as your workload needs.

HTTP(S) and SOCKS5

API control is protocol-agnostic across both product lines.

Why the developer API matters

Anything you can do in the dashboard, your code can do, so automation owns its own proxy lifecycle.

No human in the loop

Agents and pipelines create, rotate and change IPs themselves via a clean HTTP API.

  • Session control via API
  • Fresh IP on demand

Region-accurate at scale

Set geo-targeting per request so parallel workers each get the right local data.

  • Geo per request
  • Unlimited concurrency

Manage at scale

Create subusers and allocate traffic programmatically across teams and workloads.

  • Subuser management
  • Secret rotation
