# configuredForTor(socksEndpoint:) Build a persistent `URLSessionConfiguration` that routes every HTTP/HTTPS request through a SOCKS5 proxy. ``` static func configuredForTor(socksEndpoint endpoint: HostPort) -> URLSessionConfiguration ``` ## Parameters `endpoint` SOCKS5 proxy endpoint, typically [`socksEndpoint`](/documentation/Tor/TorClient/socksEndpoint). ## Return Value A configuration with the SOCKS5 proxy installed. All other defaults of `URLSessionConfiguration.default` are preserved. ## Discussion Starts from `URLSessionConfiguration.default` (which persists cookies, caches, and credentials to disk) and installs a SOCKS5 proxy dictionary pointing at `endpoint`. Suitable for long-lived sessions where Apple’s default URL loading behaviour — HTTP pipelining, URL cache, cookie storage — is desired. ### Example ```swift let client = TorClient(configuration: .ephemeral()) try await client.start() try await client.waitUntilBootstrapped() let config = URLSessionConfiguration.configuredForTor( socksEndpoint: await client.socksEndpoint! ) let session = URLSession(configuration: config) let (data, _) = try await session.data( from: URL(string: "https://check.torproject.org/api/ip")! ) ``` > Important: The returned configuration **persists cookies, > caches, and credentials to disk** via the default shared > containers. For privacy-sensitive sessions, use > ``doc://Tor/documentation/Tor/Foundation/URLSessionConfiguration/ephemeralConfiguredForTor(socksEndpoint:)`` instead.
