Bot managers

Akamai, Kasada, Imperva, F5, and PerimeterX are cookie-clearance systems: there is no widget to submit, just a challenge that must be cleared to earn trust cookies. Every one of these is IP-bound.

Cookie clearance, not tokens

Unlike widget captchas, these return cookies (for example _abck, x-kpsdk, TS*, _px*) rather than a form token. They are IP-bound: the clearance is only valid from the exit it was minted on. Use the ...Task proxy variant with your proxyType/proxyAddress/proxyPort, then keep making your own requests through that same exit with the returned cookies. The ...ProxyLess convenience variants solve on Capzy egress instead.

Example

An Akamai task body with a proxy:

akamai-task.json

{
  "clientKey": "capzy_YOUR_KEY",
  "task": {
    "type": "AntiAkamaiBMPTask",
    "websiteURL": "https://example.com/",
    "proxyType": "http",
    "proxyAddress": "1.2.3.4",
    "proxyPort": 8080,
    "proxyLogin": "user",
    "proxyPassword": "pass"
  }
}

Keep the exit fixed

Reusing clearance cookies from a different IP or User-Agent than they were minted with gets you re-challenged immediately. Pin the proxy exit and the User-Agent for the whole session.

See Using proxies for the proxy fields, and Getting the result for the polling loop that returns solution.
