Summary

Retrieve detailed information about a specific Task using its unique Task ID from the Browser Use Cloud API, supporting multiple API versions (v2, v3, v4).

Inputs

  • API Version (required) — Select which version of the Browser Use Cloud API to utilize for the Task retrieval: 'v2' (legacy), 'v3', or 'v4' (recommended). Defaults to 'v2' for node version 1 and 'v4' for version 2.
  • Task ID (required) — The unique identifier string of the Task to fetch. This is required when operating with API version v2.

Output shape

a single record representing all available details of the specified Task, with fields depending on the chosen API version

The output shape and available fields may vary by API version; for example, v4 returns data related to runs and sessions. The Task ID input is mandatory for v2, while higher versions may handle identifiers internally or via sessions/runs. Errors during retrieval produce detailed messages with context for debugging.

Examples

Example 1: Fetch a Task using the v2 API version

Set API Version to 'v2' and provide the Task ID string to retrieve its details.

Example 2: Fetch Task details with recommended v4 API version

Set API Version to 'v4'. Task ID input is not shown for v4 in the UI but selected tasks are accessed via run/session handling internally.
