One-time profiles

One-time profiles are disposable profiles that are created and immediately launched with a single API request and automatically deleted after they are stopped.

Such profiles streamline the workflow: you don't have to make separate requests to create, launch, stop, and delete a profile. They are useful for activities such as web scraping, where the user only needs to visit a web resource with a fresh browser fingerprint, collect the data, and delete the profile.

One-time profiles are available with all subscriptions with API access.

One POST one-time profile request counts as four requests when calculating RPM/RPH limits.

Detailed API documentation is available here.

To stop a one-time profile, you can close its browser window manually (by clicking the "cross" button) or initiate profile stoppage using Puppeteer, Playwright, or similar libraries: for example, using await browser.close(). Once stopped, the profile is automatically deleted and does not appear on your Profile List or in the Trash.
