 To run <ApiLink to="class/PlaywrightCrawler">`PlaywrightCrawler`</ApiLink> with your Chrome profile, you need to know the path to your profile files. You can find this information by entering `chrome://version/` as a URL in your Chrome browser. If you have multiple profiles, pay attention to the profile name - if you only have one profile, it's always `Default`.
 
+You also need to use the [`channel`](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/api/class-browsertype#browser-type-launch-option-channel) parameter in `browser_launch_options` to use the Chrome browser installed on your system instead of Playwright's Chromium.

 :::warning Profile access limitation
 Due to [Chrome's security policies](https://developer.chrome.com/blog/remote-debugging-port), automation cannot use your main browsing profile directly. The example copies your profile to a temporary location as a workaround.

 ### Sitemap request loader
 
-The <ApiLink to="class/SitemapRequestLoader">`SitemapRequestLoader`</ApiLink> is a specialized request loader that reads URLs from sitemaps following the [Sitemaps protocol](https://www.sitemaps.org/protocol.html). It supports both XML and plain text sitemap formats. It's particularly useful when you want to crawl a website systematically by following its sitemap structure.
-
-:::note
-The `SitemapRequestLoader` is designed specifically for sitemaps that follow the standard Sitemaps protocol. HTML pages containing links are not supported by this loader - those should be handled by regular crawlers using the `enqueue_links` functionality.

-The loader supports filtering URLs using glob patterns and regular expressions, allowing you to include or exclude specific types of URLs. The <ApiLink to="class/SitemapRequestLoader">`SitemapRequestLoader`</ApiLink> provides streaming processing of sitemaps, ensuring efficient memory usage without loading the entire sitemap into memory.
