---
A browser profile is a snapshot of browser state: cookies, local storage, session data. Create a profile from a completed run, then load it into future workflow runs to skip login and setup steps.
For conceptual background, see [Browser Profiles](/optimization/browser-profiles).
<Note>
Python uses `snake_case` (e.g., `create_browser_profile`); TypeScript uses `camelCase` (e.g., `createBrowserProfile`). Parameter tables show Python names. TypeScript names are the camelCase equivalents.
</Note>
Create a profile from a completed workflow run.
<CodeGroup>
```python Python
profile = await client.create_browser_profile(
name="production-login",
workflow_run_id="wr_abc123",
)
print(profile.browser_profile_id) # bpf_abc123
```
```typescript TypeScript
const profile = await skyvern.createBrowserProfile({
name: "production-login",
workflow_run_id: "wr_abc123",
});
console.log(profile.browser_profile_id); // bpf_abc123
```
</CodeGroup>
### Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `name` | `str` | Yes | Display name for the profile. |
| `description` | `str` | No | Optional description. |
| `workflow_run_id` | `str` | Conditional | The workflow run ID to snapshot. The run must have used `persist_browser_session=True`. Required if `browser_session_id` is not provided. |
| `browser_session_id` | `str` | Conditional | The browser session ID to snapshot. Required if `workflow_run_id` is not provided. |
| `request_options` | `RequestOptions` | No | Per-request configuration (see below). |
You must provide either `workflow_run_id` or `browser_session_id`.
### Returns `BrowserProfile`
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `browser_profile_id` | `str` | Unique ID. Starts with `bpf_`. |
| `name` | `str` | Profile name. |
| `description` | `str \| None` | Profile description. |
| `created_at` | `datetime` | When the profile was created. |
### Example: Create a profile from a login workflow
<CodeGroup>
```python Python
# Step 1: Run a workflow with persist_browser_session
run = await client.run_workflow(
workflow_id="wpid_login_flow",
parameters={"username": "demo@example.com"},
wait_for_completion=True,
)
# Step 2: Create a profile from the run
profile = await client.create_browser_profile(
name="demo-account-login",
workflow_run_id=run.run_id,
)
# Step 3: Use the profile in future runs (skip login)
result = await client.run_workflow(
workflow_id="wpid_extract_invoices",
browser_profile_id=profile.browser_profile_id,
wait_for_completion=True,
)
```
```typescript TypeScript
// Step 1: Run a workflow with persist_browser_session
const run = await skyvern.runWorkflow({
body: {
workflow_id: "wpid_login_flow",
parameters: { username: "demo@example.com" },
},
waitForCompletion: true,
});
// Step 2: Create a profile from the run
const profile = await skyvern.createBrowserProfile({
name: "demo-account-login",
workflow_run_id: run.run_id,
});
// Step 3: Use the profile in future runs (skip login)
const result = await skyvern.runWorkflow({
body: {
workflow_id: "wpid_extract_invoices",
browser_profile_id: profile.browser_profile_id,
},
waitForCompletion: true,
});
```
</CodeGroup>
<Info>
Session archiving is asynchronous. If `create_browser_profile` fails immediately after a workflow completes, wait a few seconds and retry.
</Info>

### Request options
Override timeout, retries, or headers for this call by passing `request_options` (Python) or a second options argument (TypeScript).
<CodeGroup>
```python Python
from skyvern.client.core import RequestOptions
request_options=RequestOptions(
timeout_in_seconds=120,
max_retries=3,
additional_headers={"x-custom-header": "value"},
)
```
```typescript TypeScript
// Pass as second argument to any method
{
timeoutInSeconds: 120,
maxRetries: 3,
headers: { "x-custom-header": "value" },
}
```
</CodeGroup>
| Option (Python) | Option (TypeScript) | Type | Description |
|-----------------|---------------------|------|-------------|
| `timeout_in_seconds` | `timeoutInSeconds` | `int` / `number` | HTTP timeout in seconds. |
| `max_retries` | `maxRetries` | `int` / `number` | Retry count. |
| `additional_headers` | `headers` | `dict` / `Record<string, string>` | Extra headers. |
| `additional_query_parameters` | - | `dict` | Extra query parameters. |
| `additional_body_parameters` | - | `dict` | Extra body parameters. |
| - | `abortSignal` | `AbortSignal` | Signal to cancel the request. |
| - | `apiKey` | `string` | Override API key. |
