# Making Requests

> Learn how to make requests using AntsData's Datacenter Proxies.

To send your first request, you can run the following curl command and replace the username, password and ip\_address with yours. The target website <Tooltip tip="IP data provider">IPinfo.io</Tooltip> will return information about your current IP address.

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Rotating theme={null}
  curl -U "customer-<username>:<password>" -x "proxy.antsdata.com:30002" "https://ipinfo.io"
  ```

  ```bash Static theme={null}
  curl -U "customer-<username>:<password>" -x "<ip_address>:62000" "https://ipinfo.io"
  ```
</CodeGroup>

With the whitelist setting, you can simply use the following command:

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Rotating theme={null}
  curl -x "proxy.antsdata.com:30002" "https://ipinfo.io"
  ```

  ```bash Static theme={null}
  curl -x "<ip_address>:62000" "https://ipinfo.io"
  ```
</CodeGroup>
