Credentials

Each proxy has one or more proxy users (users[] on the proxy object). This endpoint gives them new, random 16-character passwords. The old password stops working with the node's next config pull (seconds).

New password

POST /proxies/{id}/password

Ability: manage · Who: anyone on the account except team viewers; sub-users for their assigned proxies.

Body field	Type
`username`	string	optional — only this proxy user; omit to change all users of the proxy
