Stealth Route

BrowserQL's stealth route provides advanced anti-detection capabilities specifically optimized for our BQL tool. This route combines BrowserQL's powerful automation features with comprehensive browser fingerprint mitigations and entropy injection for maximum effectiveness against bot detection systems.

Available Stealth Route​

  • Stealth Route (Recommended) - /stealth/bql
    Our recommended stealth route for BrowserQL users. This managed stealth environment provides advanced anti-detection and realistic fingerprinting with comprehensive browser fingerprint mitigations and entropy injection for maximum effectiveness against bot detection systems.

Using the Stealth Route​

To use the stealth route with BrowserQL, you can select the Stealth browser in the BQL IDE settings, or when running programmatically, simply specify the stealth endpoint:

# Stealth (Recommended)
curl -X POST \
  https://production-sfo.browserless.io/stealth/bql?token=YOUR_API_TOKEN_HERE \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "query": "query { goto(url: \"https://example.com\") { status } }"
  }'

Additional Bot Detection Strategies​

To further enhance your ability to bypass bot detection with BrowserQL:

  • Use Residential Proxies: Many sites monitor IP addresses and may block data-center IPs or enforce rate limits. BrowserQL supports built-in residential proxies with country selection and proxy reuse options. For setup details, see our Proxies documentation.
  • Enable Human-like Behavior: Configure mouse movements and typing patterns to appear more natural and human-like.
  • Block Ads: Using ad-blocking can make your sessions appear more like real users, as most humans use ad blockers.
  • Advanced Techniques: If standard stealth features aren't enough, contact us at support@browserless.io. We can assist with advanced solutions and specialized infrastructure available on our enterprise plans.
