Why people use Webshare
Webshare Proxy Management for Scraping and Data Collection
This Connector puts those controls into your AI client. You can just tell your agent to authorize a new server IP or swap out a dead proxy from your pool. Instead of manual navigation, you get a direct line to your proxy infrastructure, letting you manage your network as fast as you can type.
What Vinkius changes
You turn your AI agent into a dedicated proxy administrator that handles the tedious network configuration for you.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.

Before you connect
Questions about Webshare.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Does the Webshare MCP help with web scraping?
Yes, it helps manage the proxy infrastructure needed for scraping. You can use it to handle IP rotation, whitelist new scraping nodes, and swap out blocked IPs automatically.
Can I use this to see if my proxies are working?
Yes, your AI agent can pull live health statuses for your entire proxy pool. This lets you quickly identify and replace nodes that are no longer responding.
How do I whitelist a new server IP with Webshare MCP?
You can simply tell your AI client to authorize a specific IP address. The Connector will update your whitelist instantly so your new server can start working without passwords.
Can it help me avoid being blocked by websites?
Yes, by using the replacement capability, you can have your agent automatically swap out IPs that get flagged or blocked, helping you maintain a consistent connection.
Does this work with other proxy providers?
No, this Connector is specifically built for the Webshare proxy network. You would need a different MCP for other providers.
Can I see my bandwidth usage through the AI?
Yes, your agent can retrieve your historical bandwidth stats and your current remaining quota, so you can monitor your costs in real-time.
Can I authorize my current IP address to use proxies via chat?
Yes. The authorize_new_ip capability allows you to immediately whitelist a new IPv4 address in your Webshare account, so you can start using your proxies from that machine without a password.
How do I replace a proxy that has been blocked by a target website?
Use the request_proxy_replacement capability and provide the unique proxy_id. Your agent will instruct Webshare to cycle that specific IP for a new one, subject to your account's replacement quota.
Can I check how much bandwidth I have left this month?
Absolutely. The get_account_profile capability provides real-time info on your plan limits and remaining bandwidth quota, so you can monitor consumption and avoid interruptions.
