# Restricting Proxy Users #### Restricting Proxy Users to specific Services ProxyUsers can be created with a username and password for basic authentication and then restricted to certain services on an account. For example, if you wanted a ProxyUser to have access to a your Residential Bandwidth service but not your Datacenter Proxies service then you can use the restricted\_services field in the ProxyUser Create API Route to only allow it to access the the service\_id of the Residential Bandwidth service. #### Restricting Proxy User Traffic You can also set usage limits across product ranges, i.e residential traffic across all residential bandwidth services. This will mean the proxy\_user can access up to X amount of bytes through the service and then will be restricted. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
