Runway Proxy: When You Need One for Runway's App and API

Runway may open fine without a proxy. Here's when a fixed IP helps — and what Runway's terms don't allow.

Live

Runway live connectivity

Every hour we open Runway through Proxy302 residential IPs in several countries. These are the latest checks.

Only the first three octets of each IP are shown. Checked on dynamic residential IPs through the public Proxy302 entry.

When Runway needs a proxy — and when it doesn't

Runway's terms are built around one person per account: you may not share your account, password or API keys with anyone, and you may not hold more than one account per platform at a time. Bots, scrapers and other automated access to the service are prohibited; the developer API is the programmatic route.

Runway also makes no promise that the service is available or appropriate outside its own locations, says people who use it from other countries do so at their own volition, and bars use in US-embargoed countries. GreatFire doesn't currently list runway.com as blocked from mainland China, so you may not need a proxy just to reach it.

A static ISP IP earns its place in two cases: you want your one account to sign in from the same address every time, or an API job should leave from one known address. Runway's output links are temporary, so download what you keep soon after a task finishes.

Set up a Runway proxy in 5 minutes

  1. Open the AI subscriptions setup

    The Configure button opens static ISP in the console with Use case set to AI subscriptions. Keep Billing on Per IP and term, leave Choose a platform empty (there's no Runway preset), check Region (United States is suggested), keep Protocol on HTTP and set Term to 1 month, set Quantity to the number of IPs you need (one for each account, up to 100 at a time), then click Review cost and generate.

    Expected result The IP appears in My assets; Copy all copies host, port, username and password.

  2. Connect your browser

    Install the Proxy302 browser extension (Downloads and setup at the bottom of /guides) and sign in with Log In to Your Account. In My assets, click Use extension on this IP's row, then press Connect in the extension. Confirm the country on ipinfo.io, then sign in to Runway.

    Before continuing If your network can't reach the proxy directly, start the helper tool first (Connect → Helper tools) and tick Use Helper in the extension.

  3. API jobs

    Run the read-only check below with your API secret. Then send generation requests through the same proxy and download each output soon after the task succeeds.

  4. Teams

    Each member uses their own Runway account and their own IP; Runway's terms don't allow shared logins or API keys.

Test the Runway API through the proxy

Scroll horizontally with the arrow keys to read all content.

# Read-only check of your API tier and credit balance, through the proxy (HTTP line).
curl -x "http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT" \
  "https://api.dev.runwayml.com/v1/organization" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $RUNWAYML_API_SECRET" \
  -H "X-Runway-Version: 2024-11-06"

GET /v1/organization only reads your tier and credit balance, so it's a safe first test of the key and the route. Generation calls use the same headers; their output URLs are temporary, so download results soon after a task succeeds.

Quick fixes

An output link stopped working

Check How long ago did the task finish?

Fix Runway's output URLs are temporary. Download results right after a task succeeds; for API jobs, store them yourself.

Uploads or previews stall in the browser

Check Is this browser really using the proxy, and is a second VPN or proxy on as well?

Fix Keep exactly one layer. If the live panel on this page shows recent successes from your exit country, the issue is local.

A teammate wants your login

Check Would two people use one account or one API key?

Fix Runway's terms prohibit sharing accounts, passwords and API keys. Give the teammate their own account and IP.

You're asked to sign in again on every visit

Check Do you switch between this IP, a VPN and your own connection?

Fix Keep the account on one static IP.

Runway proxy FAQ

Does Runway work from mainland China without a proxy?

GreatFire doesn't currently list runway.com as blocked from mainland China. Use a proxy when you want one fixed sign-in address or a known exit for API jobs.

Can several people share one Runway account through one IP?

No. Runway's terms prohibit sharing your account, password or API keys and allow only one account per platform per person.

Can a proxy help me pay for Runway?

No. A proxy changes your network exit only; payment needs a method Runway accepts.

Can I automate the Runway web app?

No — the terms prohibit bots, scrapers and other automated access. Use Runway's developer API for programmatic work.

Static or rotating proxy for Runway?

Static, so your account and API jobs always use the same address.
