- Sign up at Bright Data.
- In your Bright Data dashboard, navigate to 'Proxies & Scraping Infrastructure', then 'Scraping Infrastructure'. Create a new 'Web Unlocker' zone. Note your API token.
- In n8n, create a new 'Header Auth' credential for Bright Data:
- Navigate to Credentials > New.
- Search for and select 'Header Auth'.
- Set a 'Credential Name' (e.g.,
BrightData_Token
). - For the 'Name' field (header name), enter
Authorization
