Profiles let Nextbrowser remember a website login once and reuse it across future tasks. Instead of re‑typing credentials on every run, you can launch a browser that is already authenticated for the target site.

​
Why use Profiles?

  • Skip repetitive logins. Start tasks inside an authenticated session.
  • Control. Select any profiles per task and manage them centrally.
  • Data Scraping from specific forums, platforms which involves loging in

​
How it works

When you save a profile, Nextbrowser remembers your signed‑in state for that site. When you start a task and pick that profile, the browser opens already logged in.
Security
• Cookies are encrypted at rest and scoped to the owning user.
• Metadata (like domain and name) is stored so you can list and manage profiles.
• Sessions may expire; you can refresh by re‑saving the profile.

​
How to use it

​
1) Create a Profile

  1. Go to Profiles → Create Profile.
  2. A clean browser opens in Profile Mode. Navigate to your target site and log in (complete MFA if prompted).
  3. Click Save Profile. Name it clearly (e.g., “Acme CRM — marketing@acme.com”).

​
2) Use a Profile in a Task

  1. Create a new task as usual.
  2. In **Session / Profile **logo from the chatbar, select your saved profile from the dropdown.
  3. Start the task. The browser launches with cookies preloaded and begins already signed in.

​
3) Manage Profiles

  • Rename to keep your list tidy.
  • Delete profiles you no longer need.
  • Re‑save/refresh a profile if the session has expired or you changed the password.

​
Best practices

  • Name consistently. Include domain and account email (e.g., drive — ops@company.com).
  • Minimal scope. Create separate profiles per brand/account to isolate access.
  • Refresh after password/MFA changes. Re‑save to avoid login loops.
