Actions

Pass an actions array on any scrape, extraction, crawl, or search request to drive the page before content is captured. Useful for logins, filters, pagination, and infinite-scroll sites.

Supported actions

click — click an element by CSS selector
type — fill an input with text
press — press a keyboard key (e.g. "Enter")
scroll — scroll by pixels in either direction
wait — wait for a selector or a fixed timeout
screenshot — capture a screenshot at this step
execute_js — run inline JavaScript in the page
extract — re-extract after actions complete

Example

actions-example.ts

await stack0.extraction.extractAndWait({
  url: "https://example.com/search",
  mode: "markdown",
  actions: [
    { type: "type", selector: "input[name=q]", text: "playwright" },
    { type: "press", key: "Enter" },
    { type: "wait", selector: ".results", timeout: 5000 },
    { type: "scroll", direction: "down", pixels: 1200 },
    { type: "screenshot" },
  ],
});

Proxy & Stealth

Every scrape accepts stealth: true (default) and proxy: "residential" | "datacenter". Stealth runs the page through playwright-extra's evasion patches; proxy uses your configured provider via the WEBDATA_PROXY_SERVER environment variable.
