Browser Contexts
Memoh can give a bot access to a headless browser through the Browser Gateway. A Browser Context stores the browser environment a bot should use, such as viewport size, locale, timezone, and mobile behavior.
Once a browser context is assigned to a bot, the bot can use browser tools to open pages, click elements, fill forms, capture screenshots, and inspect page content.
Concept: Browser Gateway
The Browser Gateway is powered by Playwright and provides browser automation for bots. In practice, a browser context acts like a reusable browser profile configuration for one or more bots.
Typical use cases include:
- Navigating websites
- Clicking buttons and links
- Filling and submitting forms
- Reading rendered page content
- Capturing screenshots or PDFs
Creating a Browser Context
Manage contexts from the Browser Contexts page in the sidebar.
- Navigate to the Browser Contexts page.
- Click Add Browser Context.
- Fill in the following field:
- Name: A display name for this browser context.
- Click Create.
Configuring a Browser Context
After creating a context, select it from the sidebar and update its settings.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The display name shown in the UI. |
| Viewport Width | Browser viewport width in pixels. |
| Viewport Height | Browser viewport height in pixels. |
| User Agent | Optional custom browser user agent string. |
| Device Scale Factor | Optional device pixel ratio. |
| Locale | Optional locale such as en-US or zh-CN. |
| Timezone ID | Optional timezone such as UTC or Asia/Shanghai. |
| Is Mobile | Enables mobile-style browser behavior. |
| Ignore HTTPS Errors | Allows navigation to sites with invalid HTTPS certificates. |
Managing Contexts
- Edit: Select a context and update its configuration.
- Delete: Remove a context you no longer use.
Assigning a Browser Context to a Bot
- Navigate to the Bots page and open your bot.
- Go to the Settings tab.
- Find the Browser Context dropdown.
- Select the context you created.
- Click Save.
After saving, the bot can use that browser context when browser tools are invoked.
Bot Interaction
When a browser context is configured, the bot can use built-in browser tools such as:
browser_action: perform actions like navigation, click, fill, select, scroll, tab management, screenshot, or PDF exportbrowser_observe: inspect the current page and gather information for the model
This lets the bot interact with real websites instead of relying only on static HTML or search results.
