firecrawl interact (formerly browser)

Cloud browser automation for pages requiring clicks, forms, login, and pagination.

- Supports interactive workflows: click elements, fill forms, navigate multi-step flows, handle pagination and infinite scroll

- Persistent profiles survive session close, enabling login-then-work patterns where authentication state is retained across reconnects

- Core commands include open, snapshot -i (element discovery with @ref IDs), click, fill, type, scrape, scroll, wait, and eval for JavaScript execution

- Session management with configurable TTL, inactivity timeout, and read-only reconnect mode for parallel or sequential browser work

firecrawl interact (formerly browser)

The browser command is deprecated. Use scrape + interact instead. Interact lets you scrape a page and then click, fill forms, and navigate without managing sessions manually.

Interact with scraped pages in a live browser session. Scrape a page first, then use natural language prompts or code to click, fill forms, navigate, and extract data.

When to use

- Content requires interaction: clicks, form fills, pagination, login

- scrape failed because content is behind JavaScript interaction

- You need to navigate a multi-step flow

- Last resort in the workflow escalation pattern: search → scrape → map → crawl → interact

- Never use interact for web searches - use search instead

Quick start

# 1. Scrape a page (scrape ID is saved automatically)
