Browser automation
Browser automation
The Browser automation tab sets the port the Runner talks to Chrome over during web automation. That conversation uses CDP (the Chrome DevTools Protocol).
What is the CDP port?
CDP is the channel the Runner drives Chrome through — opening pages, clicking elements, filling fields and every other browser action. The CDP port decides which local network address that happens on.
In most cases the default works untouched. You only need to change this port if something else on the machine is already using it.
Setting the CDP port
- In the admin panel, open the Browser automation tab.
- In CDP port, enter the port number you want.
- Click Save.
Restart required
A new CDP port only takes effect after the Runner is restarted.
