To set a proxy for curl, you can use the -x or --proxy flag followed by the proxy URL. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Open a terminal or command prompt.
  2. Use the following syntax to set the proxy for curl: curl -x
  3. Press Enter to execute the command.


Curl will now use the specified proxy server to access the URL you provided.


Note: In addition to the -x or --proxy flag, you may also need to specify other proxy-related options such as authentication credentials, proxy type, etc. Refer to the curl documentation or the documentation specific to the proxy server you are using for further information.
