Who it is for
People who already installed a client and have a profile URL from their provider.
Prerequisites
- A compatible client installed
- A working profile URL
- Do not publish the subscription URL
Import steps
- 1
Find the Profiles or Subscription entry in the client; the label differs between clients.
- 2
Paste the URL and save, then wait for the download to finish.
- 3
Select the new profile and refresh nodes or proxy groups once.
- 4
Confirm traffic works before enabling the system proxy, and only then consider TUN.
Common issues
Import succeeds but there are no nodes
Usually a format mismatch or an expired subscription. Read the error in the client log.
Next step
With a working profile, read up on what TUN mode solves.
