Why Residential proxies are not saved

This is normal behavior. Residential proxies are dynamic, and storing generated sessions in Proxy List simply makes no sense.

Why it works this way

Residential proxies differ from Datacenter and ISP proxies because proxy IP addresses are hosted on real residential devices.

Each generation creates a new session with a unique identifier, to which an IP is temporarily bound. That is why the list is not saved: it becomes outdated immediately after rotation.

Old sessions do not disappear

When you generate new proxies with different settings, the old ones continue to work and do not change their parameters. Each session exists separately from the others.

Example

Suppose you generated German proxies:

relay-eu.proxyshard.com:8080:plan-limited-country-de-sid-aaaaaaaaa:xxxxxxxxx

Let's break down the connection string:

Part	Value
relay-eu.proxyshard.com	Load balancing server (relay)
8080	Server port
plan-limited	Proxy tariff (limited - regular, unlimited - unlimited, premium - premium)
country-de	Connection country: Germany (de)
sid-aaaaaaaaa	Unique session ID to which the IP address is bound
xxxxxxxxx	Connection password

If after that you generate, for example, US proxies, a new string with country-us and another sid will appear. But the German session sid-aaaaaaaaa will not go anywhere and will continue working with the same IP until the session expires.

If you need a permanent IP, use Datacenter or ISP proxies Proxies from these sections have a static IP and are issued only to one user
