Showcasing this week: real-time request logs, right inside the dashboard ๐Ÿ“Š Every request your scraper fires, you see it as it happens. Nothing extra to set up, no third-party tools to wire in.

Logging is async, so it doesn't add latency. Logs on, logs off, scrapers run at the same speed. We built this for the people actually debugging the pipeline at 2am, not the marketing slide.

The quick rule: Fixed cloud infra โ†’ whitelist your server IP. Serverless or dynamic โ†’ username and password. Need both at once โ†’ Byteful supports both natively, no extra config.

The auth method you pick for your proxy setup quietly decides whether your scraper scales cleanly or breaks at the worst time. Two options. Each fits a different kind of infrastructure. Here's when to use which ๐Ÿงต

Best for cloud functions, serverless, and heavily distributed systems where the exit IP changes constantly. Avoid if you can't securely store, manage, or rotate tokens across your stack.

Credentials: You pass a username and password directly inside the proxy connection string. The standard method for distributed scraping and any dynamic environment where your exit IP shifts.

Good for static setups. Dedicated cloud servers or VMs with fixed IPs. Avoid in dynamic, or large setups. It breaks on serverless platforms like AWS Lambda or any environment where the exit IP rotates.

IP Whitelisting: You register your server's static IP with the provider. The proxy gateway auto-accepts requests from that IP. No credentials, no tokens in your HTTP headers, no extra config per request.

A slow or poorly configured proxy setup breaks your pipeline before requests even reach the target server. Authentication is where most of those silent failures start. Worth getting right.

Two small dashboard details that save more time than they shouldโšก Smart file naming: exports are named based on your selection. No more "list (3).csv" Smartpath onboarding: first time using it? The dashboard explains what it does right there. Video, docs, one click.
