# init(bundleIdentifier:profileIdentifier:)

Creates a web history instance to delete web-usage data associated to the
bundle identifier and profile identifier you specify.

```
init(bundleIdentifier: String, profileIdentifier: STWebHistory.ProfileIdentifier?) throws
```

## Parameters

`bundleIdentifier`

The bundle identifier.

`profileIdentifier`

The identifier of the current browsing profile.

## Discussion

The default value for `bundleIdentifier` is `Bundle.main.bundleIdentifier`.
This is the recommended identifier to use, except for example, if a helper
process is presenting web UI and you want to group that web-usage under the
main app’s bundle identifier.

The default value for `profileIdentifier` is `nil`. This identifier can be used to delete
browsing history for a specific profile. Using `nil` will only delete web history reported
without a profile identifier.
