# Using Prompts

Simplest way to run OF-Scraper

Running the prompt menu allows you to to utilize the program while passing minimal arguments

***

## Getting to the main menu

The simplest method is to execute this command

```
ofscraper
```

Basically, any command lacking the --action command will automatically go to this menu\\

> **Go to main menu options**

## Action Menu

> ℹ️ **New in 3.7 all possible scraping combinations can be done via this menu**

use this menu to perform scraping actions or combination\\

**Browse and pick media (check table)** opens the check table for the creators you pick. See [Content Check Modes](/ofsc/content-check-modes.md).

***

## Going back and stopping

* **Esc** cancels the current prompt and returns to the menu it came from, changing nothing. On the main menu it does nothing.
* **Ctrl+C once** stops the current downloads, or the fetch of posts, messages, stories and other content, without quitting. From the menu you're taken back to the menu; a command-line run ends with exit code 130, and `--daemon` shuts down. Files that didn't finish keep their part files and resume on the next run.
* **Ctrl+C a second time** quits.
* A Fansly livestream recording is closed cleanly when stopped, so what was recorded is kept.

***

## Profile Menu

<figure><img src="https://1773136583-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FudoXDTUCa7EtVSFuAxcT%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-7483b06cb61fde3934f375bfd428d752ffc04159%2Fimage%20(2)%20(1).png?alt=media" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Use this option to

* add profiles
* change the default profile
* rename a profile
* delete profile

Each profile corresponds to a single account. So, if you aim to have multiple accounts, you'll require multiple profiles

***

## Edit config.json

<div align="center" data-full-width="false"><figure><img src="https://1773136583-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FudoXDTUCa7EtVSFuAxcT%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-00007ccde80bc3ee450b4f41fc76475a847cf0c4%2Fimage%20(4).png?alt=media" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

<figure><img src="https://1773136583-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FudoXDTUCa7EtVSFuAxcT%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-b0e707cc118fb85d4a06a603173f3dc580423aca%2Fimage%20(5).png?alt=media" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

To bypass the hassle of finding the config file's location, utilize this to modify settings directly from within the script.

Your prior choices will be available, allowing you the chance to edit them conveniently.

***

## Edit auth.json

> ℹ️ **if the authentication fails, the authentication menu will pop up, prompting you to enter new settings**

<figure><img src="https://1773136583-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FudoXDTUCa7EtVSFuAxcT%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-ddc8177dd1f6110fe4d27ff43438a3f7f158702e%2Fimage%20(6).png?alt=media" alt="" width="560"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Typically this is not a setting that needs to be access manually

However, you have the option to directly modify the authentication JSON using this method.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://cloakedkeys.gitbook.io/ofsc/using-the-scraper/using-prompts.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
