Puppeteer Launch Incognito
The best way to accomplish your goal is to launch the browser directly into incognito mode by passing the --incognito
flag to puppeteer.launch()
:
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
args: [
'--incognito',
],
});
Alternatively, you can create a new incognito browser context after launching the browser using browser.createIncognitoBrowserContext()
:
const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
const context = await browser.createIncognitoBrowserContext();
You can check whether a browser context is incognito using browserContext.isIncognito()
:
if (context.isIncognito()) { /* ... */ }
the solutions above didn't work for me:
an incognito window is created, but then when the new page is created, it is no longer incognito.
The solution that worked for me was:
const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
const context = await browser.createIncognitoBrowserContext();
const page = await context.newPage();
then you can use page and it's an incognito page
