The Continent object represents a geographical continent in the Byteful system. It serves as the highest level in the geographic hierarchy and contains essential information about continents including their identifiers, names, and aliases.
Key Attributes
| Attribute | Type | Description |
|---|
continent_id | string | Unique identifier for the continent (e.g., eu for Europe) |
continent_name | string | Full name of the continent (e.g., Europe) |
continent_alias | string | Alternative identifier or shorthand for the continent |
Object Relationships
The Continent object sits at the top of the geographic hierarchy in the Byteful API:
- Countries: Each continent contains multiple countries
- Subdivisions: Indirectly related through countries
- Cities: Indirectly related through countries and subdivisions
- Proxies: Proxies can be filtered or grouped by continent through their country associations
| Endpoint | Description |
|---|
GET /public/user/continent/retrieve/{continent_id} | Retrieve a specific continent by ID |
GET /public/user/continent/search | Search continents using various filters |
GET /public/user/country/search?continent_id={continent_id} | Find countries within a specific continent |
Example Response
{
"data": {
"continent_id": "eu",
"continent_name": "Europe",
"continent_alias": "eu"
},
"message": "Continent successfully retrieved."
}
Usage Notes
- Continents provide the broadest geographic categorization in the system
- The
continent_id typically uses a two-letter code (e.g., eu, na, as)
- When filtering proxy locations, using continent-level filtering provides the broadest geographic targeting
- The continent object is primarily used for reference and categorization rather than direct operations
- For more precise geographic targeting, use the country, subdivision, or city objects instead
Continent Codes
The system uses the following standard continent codes:
| Code | Continent |
|---|
af | Africa |
an | Antarctica |
as | Asia |
eu | Europe |
na | North America |
oc | Oceania |
sa | South America |
