or pass false
to use proxy. static_bypass_regex
/.*?\.(?:txt|json|css|less|gif|ico|jpe?g|svg|png|webp|mkv|mp4|mpe?g|webm|eot|ttf|woff2?)$/

Zyte SmartProxy Playwright will block ads defined by block_list
using @cliqz/adblocker-playwright
package. block_list
['https://secure.fanboy.co.nz/easylist.txt', 'https://secure.fanboy.co.nz/easyprivacy.txt']
Block list to be used by Zyte SmartProxy Playwright in order to initiate blocker enginer using @cliqz/adblocker-playwright
and block ads headers
{'X-Crawlera-No-Bancheck': '1', 'X-Crawlera-Profile': 'pass', 'X-Crawlera-Cookies': 'disable'}
List of headers to be appended to requests
Some websites may not work with block_ads
and static_bypass
enabled (default). Try to disable them if you encounter any issues.
When using the headless: true
mode, values generated for some browser-specific headers are a bit different, which may be detected by websites. Try using 'X-Crawlera-Profile': 'desktop' in that case:
const browser = await chromium.launch({ spm_apikey: '<SPM_APIKEY>', headless: true, headers: {'X-Crawlera-No-Bancheck': '1', 'X-Crawlera-Profile': 'desktop', 'X-Crawlera-Cookies': 'disable'} });
