# Protocols #### HTTP Our tutorial documents include code examples demonstrating how to connect to proxies using the HTTP protocol, and general libraries and third-party software also support this protocol. #### HTTPS You can also enhance security through the HTTPS protocol, which provides fully encrypted connections. Therefore, you must add "https\://" to your proxy entry point. For example: [**https://host:port.**](#http)Please note that before modifying the code to use the HTTPS protocol, be sure to check, as some programming libraries (due to outdated versions) and certain third-party tools may not support the HTTPS protocol. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://doc.thordata.com/doc/proxies/datacenter-proxies/protocols.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
