bind launch-context(timezone,locale) with proxy
Dear all, I have bunch of proxies. Cloudflare and many other anti-bot protections check for the ip address and the timezone. I could see that because of this discripency my crawler is being detected as bot. How can I bind this launch context which has correct timezone and locale to a proxy+ browser ?
I have seen proxy configuration but how can I tell the browser being launched to use a specific context ?
Thanks in advance.

@Lukas Krivka any thoughts here ?
This is currently a bit tricky. For whole crawler you can easily set it up in
browserPoolOptions.fingerprintOptions but not sure how to bound the launch context to each session. There is probably a way with browser pool and session pool. @petrpatek.fascinating-indigoOP•3y ago

Is there an option for timezone in
fingerprintOptions ? I've never seen this one in docs or in type defs.I think not but you can hardcode this to launchContext

Ok, thanks. Had a thought I was missing something
