The Start Browser Profile endpoint allows you to launch existing regular profiles with automation, using folder_id and profile_id. It is essential for automation users.

Currently, the endpoint is in version 2. It is almost the same as the previous version, with enhancements regarding the accuracy of responses returned.

Before you start

1. Complete all three steps from this article, including “Using the bearer token”: they will allow you to sign in correctly
2. Navigate to the “Launcher” folder in your Postman workspace and select “GET Start Browser Profile”
3. Insert your values into the below variables in the script:
   1. folder_id, profile_id: find these values using our guides: DevTools, Postman or CLI
   2. automation: selenium/puppeteer/playwright (specifying this parameter will return the port for automation in the response)
   3. headless_mode: true/false

Running the script

1. Make sure the agent is connected, as it makes profile launching possible.
2. Click “Send” to execute the request: a “200” status means success.
