How to Set Up Proxies in Incogniton

To set up BirdProxies in Incogniton, generate a residential or ISP proxy in your dashboard, create a browser profile, open the profile's proxy tab, enter your host, port, username, and password, then check and save. It takes about five minutes per profile.

Incogniton is an anti-detect browser for managing multiple accounts with isolated fingerprints. Pairing each profile with its own BirdProxies IP gives every account a clean residential network identity that matches its fingerprint, which keeps your accounts from being linked together.

• •
  A BirdProxies proxy - a residential proxy or an ISP proxy. Both work with Incogniton.
• •
  Your credentials in `host:port:user:pass` format, generated in the BirdProxies dashboard.
• •
  Incogniton installed with at least one profile created.

Residential proxies are billed by traffic and can be sticky or rotating. ISP proxies provide a fixed static IP, which is best for long-lived accounts that should always appear from the same address.

• •
  One proxy per profile Never share an IP across accounts. Isolation is the whole point of Incogniton.
• •
  Sticky vs rotating Use a sticky session for logged-in accounts to keep the IP stable. Use rotating proxies for scraping or research.
• •
  Match the geo Pick a proxy in the same country as the account's expected location so IP and timezone align.
• •
  Prefer ISP for long-term accounts A static ISP proxy keeps a permanent IP that builds trust over time.

• •
  Connection failed Re-check the host, port, username, and password. Confirm the proxy is active in your dashboard.
• •
  Wrong country shown Regenerate the proxy with the correct geo target.
• •
  Authentication error Enter special characters exactly, or regenerate the credentials.
• •
  Slow performance Switch to a sticky session or an ISP proxy for steadier speeds.

Is BirdProxies compatible with Incogniton?

Yes. Incogniton supports HTTP and SOCKS5 proxies with username and password authentication, which is the format BirdProxies residential and ISP proxies use.

HTTP or SOCKS5?

HTTP is the simplest and most compatible. Use SOCKS5 only if your workflow specifically needs it.

Do I need a separate proxy per profile?

For multi-account work, yes. One dedicated proxy per profile keeps accounts from being linked by a shared IP.

My proxy will not connect, what should I check?

Verify the host, port, username, and password match your dashboard exactly, and that the proxy is active. Special characters in the password must be entered precisely.
