Overview
This node is designed to close a browser instance managed by the Playwright automation library. It is useful in automation workflows where a browser session needs to be terminated after completing tasks such as web scraping, testing, or interaction automation. For example, after running a series of automated browser actions, this node ensures the browser is properly closed to free up system resources.
Use Case Examples
- Automated web scraping workflow where the browser is opened, data is extracted, and then the browser is closed using this node.
- End of an automated testing sequence where the browser session is closed to clean up.
Output
JSON
status- Indicates the status message confirming the browser has been closed
Dependencies
- Requires Playwright browser management through an external BrowserManager module.
Troubleshooting
- If the browser does not close, ensure that the BrowserManager is properly initialized and that there is an active browser session to close.
- Errors may occur if the node is executed without a prior browser instance being opened; ensure the workflow includes a browser launch step before this node.
