Response
Successful Response
View model for representing a browser session.
Unique identifier for the session
Current status of the session (active/stopped)
active, stopped Timestamp when the session will timeout
Timestamp when the session was created and started
URL where the browser can be viewed live in real-time
Chrome DevTools Protocol URL for browser automation
Timestamp when the session was stopped (None if still active)
Amount of proxy data used in MB
^(?!^[-+.]*$)[+-]?0*\d*\.?\d*$Cost of proxy usage in USD
^(?!^[-+.]*$)[+-]?0*\d*\.?\d*$Cost of browser session hosting in USD
^(?!^[-+.]*$)[+-]?0*\d*\.?\d*$ID of the agent session that created this browser (None for standalone BaaS sessions)
Presigned URL to download the session recording, if recording was enabled. Only populated on GET /browsers/{session_id}: the upload starts when the browser stops, so it is never ready in the stop response.
False when a recording can never appear for this session: recording was disabled, or the browser stopped long enough ago that the upload is not coming. Only ever false from proof, so a failed recording lookup leaves it true. Clients polling for recordingUrl must stop when this is false.
Caller-supplied labels set when the browser was created.
