Changes the protocol of a provisioned proxy by calling the upstream provider. After the switch, the local record is updated to reflect the new protocol, port, and credentials returned by the provider.

​
Path parameters

​
order_id
string
required
UUID of the order.

​
Body

​
new_type
string
required
Target protocol. Must be one of HTTP or SOCKS5.

​
Response

Updated proxy object after the protocol change. Same shape as the managed_proxy object in Get order.
This endpoint makes a live call to the upstream provider. The proxy may briefly be unavailable during the protocol switch.
