For the purpose of this tutorial, let's assume you have a proxy server with authentication. Replace the placeholder values (PROXY_URL, PROXY_USERNAME, PROXY_PASSWORD) with your actual proxy URL, username, and password.
This script defines a function make_request_with_proxy() that sends a GET request to a target URL through a proxy server with authentication. Replace the target_url with the URL you want to access through the proxy.
In this tutorial, you've learned how to make HTTP requests using the requests library in Python with proxy authentication. This can be particularly useful when working with environments that require proxy servers for external connectivity. Customize the script according to your specific proxy server details and use cases.
