# Session Id

`sessid` - Connect to a specific IP address for 30 minutes. The value for `sessid`can be any string or number.

It's not a replacement for Sticky proxies, but rather an alternative when you want to connect to a specific IP address for an average of 30 minutes.

{% hint style="info" %}
Real people provide residential IPs, and if the IP provider you are using goes offline, your IP will be automatically replaced with another available one.
{% endhint %}

**Example:**

```
curl -x "http://login__cr.au;sessid.123:password@gw.dataimpulse.com:823" https://api.ipify.org/
```

Using `__cr.au;sessid.123` signifies that the client wants to connect to an IP address labeled as 123 in Australia (e.g., IP 154.6.151.212).

```
curl -x "http://login__cr.au;sessid.45:password@gw.dataimpulse.com:823" https://api.ipify.org/
```

Similarly, `cr.au;sessid.45` indicates the client's request for an IP address labeled as 45 in Australia (e.g., IP 38.55.106.76).

When you connect to the proxy via `__cr.au;sessid.123` you will consistently be assigned the IP address 154.6.151.212 for the entire 30-minute duration.  Likewise, connecting with `__cr.au;sessid.45` will result in the IP address 38.55.106.76 being assigned.

{% hint style="info" %}
Ensure that the port is specified in the settings as 824 for Socks5 or 823 for HTTPS.
{% endhint %}
