firecrawl browser

Cloud Chromium sessions in Firecrawl's remote sandboxed environment. Interact with pages that require clicks, form fills, pagination, or login.

When to use

• Content requires interaction: clicks, form fills, pagination, login
• scrape failed because content is behind JavaScript interaction
• You need to navigate a multi-step flow
• Last resort in the workflow escalation pattern: search → scrape → map → crawl → browser
• Never use browser for web searches — use search instead

Quick start

# Typical browser workflow
firecrawl browser "open <url>"
firecrawl browser "snapshot -i"                       # see interactive elements with @ref IDs
firecrawl browser "click @e5"                         # interact with elements
