Overview

This node operation lists browser sessions using the Firecrawl API. It allows users to retrieve information about browser sessions, filtering them by their current status such as active (running and accepting commands) or destroyed (terminated or expired). This is useful for monitoring and managing browser sessions in automated web scraping or crawling workflows.

Use Case Examples

  1. A user wants to monitor all active browser sessions to ensure their web scraping tasks are running smoothly.
  2. A user needs to audit destroyed sessions to troubleshoot issues with expired or terminated browser instances.

Properties

Name Meaning
Status Filter Filter sessions by their current status to show all, only active, or only destroyed sessions.
Use Custom Body Whether to use a custom request body for the API call.
Request Options Additional request options such as batching, SSL certificate handling, proxy settings, and timeout configuration.

Output

JSON

  • sessions - An array of browser session objects returned by the Firecrawl API, each representing a browser session with its details.

Dependencies

  • Firecrawl API with an API key credential

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the Firecrawl API credentials are correctly configured and valid to avoid authentication errors.
  • If filtering by status returns no sessions, verify that sessions exist with the specified status or try using the 'All' filter.
  • Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow to respond; adjust the timeout setting in Request Options accordingly.
  • If SSL certificate validation fails, enable the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option in Request Options to bypass certificate errors.
