Remove the proxy option from the input schema and create the proxy config with the datacenter option in your code.

@toludare just advanced to level 5! Thanks for your contributions!

you mean just disable clients to edit proxy config?

verbal-lime•9/30/25, 8:25 PM

Remove it from the input so the user/client cannot set their own value.

thanks for your solution, i cost some of my creator plan money to help clients use resident proxy, I put in a lot of hard work and even had to pay for them.

You're welcome. Sorry for that.

You generally don't want to give users more options than are totally necessary. If you have a generic scraper where some pages might be fine with datacenter while others needs residentials, you can switch to PPE and charge for residential page as separate event, see e.g. https://apify.com/vdrmota/contact-info-scraper/pricing
