Updated May 28, 2025
Pause browser execution until a specific URL substring is loaded, ensuring the page transition has completed before continuing with other browser actions.
Command
"waitForUrl"
Uses .includes() to check if the current URL contains the given substring. This does not return the response body — it only ensures the page has transitioned.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
url |
string | Yes | The starting URL to navigate to. |
waitForUrl |
string | Yes | Substring to wait for in the destination URL before continuing execution. |
Example
bash7 lines
Notes
Best suited for:
- Websites that redirect or dynamically change the URL after certain actions.
- Ensuring the next page has loaded before executing further browser actions.
- Waiting for final navigation steps before data scraping or input.
Using waitForUrl guarantees your scraping workflow proceeds only after the target page has been fully navigated to.
