AI-generatedSummary
Waits for a selected browser element to reach a requested state by publishing a request to the configured MQTT topic and remote browser session. Use it before a click or typing action to synchronize with page rendering, or wait for a loading element to disappear.
Inputs
- Topic (required) — MQTT topic used to route the request to the client.
- QoS — MQTT delivery quality level; defaults to 1.
- Remote Port (required) — CDP port used to route the command to the browser session; defaults from
remote_portin the input item. - Target — Element selector; supports
css=,id=, andtext=prefixes. May be left blank if unused. - XPath — XPath selector for the element. May be left blank if unused.
- Wait Type — State to wait for:
present,visible,editable, or theirnot ...counterparts. Defaults topresent. - Timeout (sec) — Maximum wait time before an error; defaults to 30 seconds.
- Include Input Items — When enabled, attaches selected fields from incoming items as
payload.inputItems. - Include Input Fields — Comma-separated field paths to include when input items are enabled; supports nested paths and array indexes.
- Wait For Response — When enabled, waits for the MQTT response before returning; response timeout defaults to 60 seconds.
- Response Timeout (sec) — Maximum time to wait for the MQTT response when response waiting is enabled.
- Delay Next Step (ms) — Delay after receiving the response, or after publishing if response waiting is disabled; defaults to
rand(200,1000).
Output shape
A single result item per input item, subject to response-wait settings.
The node sends the wait request to the MQTT client. With Wait For Response disabled, it proceeds after publishing; when enabled, it waits up to the response timeout. The operation-scoped source excerpt does not show the exact returned result fields.
