# Rotate the proxy password

`POST /api/v1/plans/{id}/password`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://hproxy.com`
- URL: `https://hproxy.com/api/v1/plans/{id}/password`
- Auth: API key in header `X-API-Key`

Replace the password behind a **residential** plan's lines with a fresh one, confirmed by the network before it is stored, and answer the new `username` and `password` once. Every line generated before the call stops working within seconds; generate again afterwards. Use it when a line has leaked. Throttled to three rotations per account every ten minutes, because each call cuts every line that account is running. No body. Residential Plus plans answer 400.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Response `200`

Success

- object

## Other responses

- `400`: Invalid input. The body names the field and the accepted set.
- `401`: Missing or invalid API key.
- `429`: Rate limited. Retry after the delay in the response.
