Sensor-based device check. A warmed browser session produces the cookies the origin expects.

proxyURL	stringrequired	Proxy the challenge is solved through, as http://login:password@host:port. The solution is bound to this exit IP.
apiURL	stringoptional	Endpoint called with POST from the warmed browser session, when the flow needs one.

    "proxyURL": "http://login:password@host:port",

Collect the solution

Poll every few seconds. Until the task closes the response carries only a status; the solution appears once it does.

  "clientKey": "YOUR_API_KEY",
  "task": {
    "taskId": "6f1c8b32-0a5e-4a19-9a1f-3b0d54c2a1e7",

The solution is bound to the proxy that produced it. Replay it from the same exit IP, and from the same user agent when you sent one.
