# Assign a proxy to profiles

Assign a proxy from your Proxy Library to one or more browser profiles, from the Proxy Library or from the profiles list.

Go to **Proxy Library**, click the three-dot icon (⋮) next to a proxy and choose **Assign profiles**. You can also start from the profiles list and pick a saved proxy for one profile or for many profiles at once. Each profile uses one proxy, so assigning a new proxy replaces the one the profile had.

### Assign one proxy to several profiles

Use this when you want to choose, from the proxy's side, which profiles use it.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Open Assign profiles

Open **Proxy Library** in the left-side menu. Click the three-dot icon (⋮) next to the proxy, or right-click the proxy, and choose **Assign profiles**.

For a proxy you bought in the Proxy Shop, open the **Incogniton Proxies** tab and use the same **Assign profiles** option in the proxy's menu.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Tick the profiles

The **Edit profiles** window lists all your profiles. Profiles that already use this proxy are ticked and shown at the top. Use **Search profiles...** to find a profile by name, proxy, group, tag or browser version, and **Select all** to tick every profile in the list.

Untick a profile to take this proxy away from it. That profile is then set to no proxy.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Save

Click **Save**. The **Assigned Profile** column of the proxy updates.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Assign a saved proxy to one profile

In the profiles list, click the proxy cell of the profile. The **Edit proxy** window opens.

1. Click **Select from Proxy Library**.
2. Click the proxy you want in the list. Its details fill the form and the window shows **Using a proxy from your Proxy Library**.
3. Click **Save**.

You can do the same from the profile editor: see the last section of [Attach external proxy](/proxy-management/integrating-proxies.md).

### Assign one saved proxy to many profiles

1. In the profiles list, tick the checkboxes of the profiles.
2. In the action bar at the bottom of the screen, click the **More actions** icon.
3. Open **Proxy** and choose **Assign Proxy**.
4. In **Select from Proxy Library**, click the proxy. It is assigned to every selected profile straight away.

### Permissions you need

Team members need the **Set proxy to profiles** permission in their role. They also need **Edit/Delete profiles in all groups**, or **Edit/Delete profiles in group** for the group the profile is in. Profiles they may not edit are skipped. See [Roles and permissions](/team-features/roles-and-permissions.md).
