  3. (optional) In
    Incognito mode
    , select either:
    • True
      . Web browser runs in the incognito mode and does not store cache.
    • False
      . Web browser does not run in the incognito mode and stores cache. This mode applies only to the native presentation engine and does not apply to the web presentation engine.
    TIP: By default, a web browser object runs in the incognito mode. You can disable the incognito mode to embed progressive web apps (PWAs) into your project and then use the PWAs without the Internet access. Disabling the incognito mode works only in the native presentation engine.

    Each header must follow this format:

    . Separate headers by entering them in multiple lines.
    header_a:value_a header_b:value_b
