Localization

You can specify a country code for your proxy to route traffic through a specific geographic location. This is useful for accessing region-specific content or testing localized experiences.

The country_code parameter accepts the following country codes in lowercase: us (United States), uk (United Kingdom), fr (France), it (Italy), jp (Japan), au (Australia), de (Germany), fi (Finland), ca (Canada). This parameter works with both anchor_residential and anchor_mobile proxy types.
