However, it is some level of complexity down the hood. The basic idea is it helps you take care of the blocks when web scraping. But how does it work?<\/p>\n<p>Scraping Browser basically acts as a proxy for you. It is integrated into <a href=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/playwright-vs-puppeteer-vs-selenium\/\">Puppeteer and Playwright<\/a> to serve as the browser. But when you send a web request, the request goes to the tool, and from there, the tool takes care of all forms of blocks.<\/p>\n<p>From the beginning of the article, it was mentioned that Scraping Browser is an automation browser that makes use of the web unblocked and proxy infrastructure of Bright Data. These two are the major real power of Scraping Browser.
