Tasks (Collapsed)
A task is an automation that can do almost anything you do manually on the web. For example:
- Open a webpage,
- Log in,
- Click on buttons,
- Fill out forms,
- Extract structured data from a webpage into a spreadsheet,
- Take screenshots,
- Monitor specific parts of webpages for visual or content changes.
Tasks are created either using 1-Click Automations or using Browse AI Recorder and its click-and-extract interface. Every task has a few variables (like the webpage address) that you can adjust every time you run it.
Tasks Operations
Task Execution (Collapsed)
Every time Browse AI runs a task for you, it counts as one execution. For example, if you set up a monitoring task to monitor a webpage for changes daily, Browse AI will have to execute the task every day or about 30 times per month for you.
Note: Task executions used to be called jobs. The word job is still used in some API endpoints and parameters for backwards-compatibility.
