+## Multiple browser contexts
+
+Multiple [browser contexts](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/core-concepts/#browser-contexts)
+to be launched at startup can be defined via the `PLAYWRIGHT_CONTEXTS` [setting](#settings).
+
+### Choosing a specific context for a request
+
+Pass the name of the desired context in the `playwright_context` meta key:
+
+```python
+yield scrapy.Request(
+    url="https://example.org",
+    meta={"playwright": True, "playwright_context": "first"},
+)
+```
+
+### Creating a context during a crawl
+
+If the context specified in the `playwright_context` meta key does not exist, it will be created.
+You can specify keyword arguments to be passed to
+[`Browser.new_context`](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/api/class-browser#browsernew_contextkwargs)
+in the `playwright_context_kwargs` meta key:
+
+```python
+yield scrapy.Request(
+    url="https://example.org",
+    meta={
+        "playwright": True,
+        "playwright_context": "new",
+        "playwright_context_kwargs": {
+            "java_script_enabled": False,
+            "ignore_https_errors": True,
+            "proxy": {
+                "server": "http://myproxy.com:3128",
+                "username": "user",
+                "password": "pass",
+            },
+        },
+    },
+)
+```
+
+Please note that if a context with the specified name already exists,
+that context is used and `playwright_context_kwargs` are ignored.
+
+### Closing a context during a crawl
+
+After [receiving the Page object in your callback](#receiving-the-page-object-in-the-callback),
+you can access a context though the corresponding [`Page.context`](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/api/class-page#page-context)
+attribute, and await [`close`](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/api/class-browsercontext#browser-context-close) on it.
+
+```python
+def parse(self, response):
+    yield scrapy.Request(
+        url="https://example.org",
+        callback=self.parse_in_new_context,
+        meta={"playwright": True, "playwright_context": "new", "playwright_include_page": True},
+    )
+
+async def parse_in_new_context(self, response):
+    page = response.meta["playwright_page"]
+    title = await page.title()
+    await page.context.close()  # close the context
+    await page.close()
+    return {"title": title}
