🔐 Authentication
X2Proxy uses username/password authentication for all proxy connections. This method is universally supported across all tools, browsers, scripts, and programming languages.
Keeping Credentials Secure
- Store credentials in environment variables rather than hardcoding them in scripts or configuration files.
- Rotate your password periodically from the dashboard.
- Use sub-accounts to isolate credentials per project or team member — see Sub-Accounts.
- Never commit proxy credentials to version control repositories.
