ERR_PROXY_AUTH_REQUESTED

The proxy requested authentication (for tunnel establishment).

Chromium's description

The proxy requested authentication (for tunnel establishment).

Chrome shows it as net::ERR_PROXY_AUTH_REQUESTED, error -127. puppeteer and Playwright report the same name when a page fails to load in Chromium.

ERR_PROXY_AUTH_REQUESTED in the screenshot API

When the page itself fails to load with ERR_PROXY_AUTH_REQUESTED, the API answers 502 with the message The target website could not be loaded (ERR_PROXY_AUTH_REQUESTED). (target_unreachable). Not billed.

Only the page's own load can fail a render. An image, script or frame of the page that fails with a network error does not: the page is captured as the browser shows it without that resource.
