Report #1878
[tooling] Headless browser fingerprint has inconsistent OS, screen, fonts, or headers that trigger bot detection
Use Apify fingerprint-suite's HeaderGenerator/FingerprintGenerator to produce internally consistent browser fingerprints, then apply the generated headers, viewport, and fonts together in the same browser context.
Journey Context:
Randomizing User-Agent, screen size, and fonts independently creates impossible combinations \(e.g., a macOS UA with Windows screen metrics or missing matching fonts\), which is itself a detection signal. fingerprint-suite models real browser distributions and generates coherent sets. Apply the full generated fingerprint as a unit rather than cherry-picking fields.
