The Surfsky team continues improving our cloud-based headless browser. Recent updates include a significant number of improvements:
- We have introduced a new feature that allows users to scrape websites without writing any code using the Scraping API. To do so, simply launch a one-time profile and specify the necessary URL and parsing parameters. Surfsky will then provide the HTML content and optionally a screenshot of the specified URL. Additionally, we have added the Scraping API to Rapid API, which can be found here.
- Surfsky browser launch is now at least 30% faster thanks to instance preloading, which improves overall productivity and efficiency.
- We have updated the Surfsky browser kernel to Chromium 119. We strive to release Chromium kernel updates as soon as they become available, and our update release schedule is synchronized with global Chrome update statistics.
- We have fixed bugs related to SSH proxies, eliminating random connection errors when launching the browser with SSH.
- We have added a large pool of residential proxies. Now our users can run Surfsky without the need for their own proxies, thanks to our improved proxy infrastructure.
- We have improved the SSH proxy pre-check functionality, making it significantly faster and more reliable.
- We have fixed a bug related to stopping a persistent profile by using the stop method.
