04/24/2025, 1:00 PMHello All,
I'm trying to build a scraper which will login in to netflix of particular country and scrap top10 movies and tv shows list.
When I run this scraper even though I mentioned to login from Singapore (netflix.com/sg/login), the netflix page redirects to US page (netflix.com/login). Hence, either I might be doing something wrong or VPN is not functioning properly.

04/28/2025, 11:20 AMHi @nileshkanawade_49624,
the password is incorrect, check out [the docs](https://docs.apify.com/platform/proxy/residential-proxy#how-to-set-a-proxy-group)
Note that 'auto' is a username (I think it is something like 'groups-Datacenter'), for RESIDENTIAL group you have to specify password, that you find in [Apify console proxy tab](https://console.apify.com/proxy/http-settings) ||.||
