Browser → Wire: Request New Action

AI-generated

Summary

Request the creation of a new Wire automation action for a specified website by providing the website URL and a natural-language goal describing the desired action or data extraction. Optionally associate the new action with an existing catalog, set its visibility to private or public, and force creation even if similar actions exist.

Inputs

  • Website URL (required) — The website to build an action for; its domain is automatically extracted.
  • Goal (required) — A natural-language description specifying what the action should do or extract, to guide the scraper synthesis.
  • Catalog ID — Optional catalog identifier to attach the new action to an existing catalog instead of creating a new one.
  • Visibility — Sets the action's visibility; either Private (default) or Public.
  • Force — Boolean to indicate whether to build the action even if similar actions already exist for the domain; otherwise, the request is rejected with ACTION_EXISTS.

Output shape

A single JSON object indicating success status and details of the build request response, including any assigned identifiers or status.

The operation returns immediately with the build request response; no polling or waiting for the build process completion occurs in this operation.

Examples

Example 1: Create a new Wire action for a website to extract product details

Set Website URL to the target site, provide a specific Goal describing the extraction target (e.g., product name, price, availability), optionally specify an existing Catalog ID, set Visibility as desired, and toggle Force if needed.
