Presses a key or a combination of keys
Name of key to press, such as ArrowLeft
. See for a list of all key names.
Use the "Detect" button to have Browserflow detect and complete any key combination
If the key press will trigger a URL change (e.g. pressing Enter
to submit a form), select this option to wait for the new page to load before proceeding
If you have the choice between pressing a key or clicking to perform an action (e.g. pressing Tab
to select an element or clicking on it), go with using as it will properly wait for elements to load and therefore be more reliable compared to Press Key, which may press the key before the page can process it.
Note that OS-level shortcuts (e.g. Command + V
to paste on Mac OS) won't work because these key presses are simulated at the browser level, not at the OS level (see for a longer explanation)
