General topic with questions and answers about the new algorithm for applying a fingerprint in BAS
In BAS version 27.7.0 they introduced mandatory use of active FingerprintSwitcher key when applying a paid fingerprint. That is, to use even a paid fingerprint downloaded and saved to a file, you must specify the FingerprintSwitcher key. The rule was introduced because of the massive problem of fingerprint resale.
To get and use free fingerprints you don't need to enter the key.
In the actions that apply the fingerprint "Apply fingerprint", "Browser Settings" and "Create or switch to regular profile (deprecated)" a new "FingerprintSwitcher key" field has been added to enter the key.
For convenience, two new actions have been added to the "Fingerprint switcher" module:
- "Override Key" - This action will override any FingerprintSwitcher key for all actions that use fingerprint ("Get Fingerprint", "Apply Fingerprint", "Browser Settings" to switch profile, etc.). The action works in within a single thread, overwriting the key in all actions that use it. If the script performs functions in new threads, for example through actions "Call function asynchronously" or "Call function in several threads", then you will need to create an additional action in them to automatically replace the key "Override Key".
- "Disable override key" - this action will disable the FingerprintSwitcher key override set using the action "Override Key".
To summarize: If you receive the error "FingerprintSwitcher key is missing", then you need to put the active FingerprintSwitcher key in this action.
Clarifications (I will replenish them):
- Any active key for using paid fingerprints is suitable, not just the one that was used to get a specific fingerprint.
- To verify the key license, 1 request will be made in 10 minutes from the entire application. The number of threads does not matter.
- For FingerprintBusiness, you need to write the word "business" in the actions instead of the key. It can also be used in the "Override Key" action.
- If you no longer have red rectangles for selecting items in the browser after applying the fingerprint, then you are using a third-party fingerprint module. You need to remove it from the project, you can do this using the GhostZ script: remove_module.xml (need to specify the name of the
FingerprintSwitcher module)
