# Browser

The Browser connection gives your assignments direct access to any website or web application, letting them navigate pages, fill out forms, click buttons, and complete multi-step processes just like a person would. This is especially valuable for systems that lack API access, such as internal portals, ERPs, and vendor platforms.

## Setup

No setup is needed. The Browser connection is automatically available to all Duvo users.

## Capabilities

* **Navigate websites** — Go to any URL, follow links, and move through multi-page workflows.
* **Fill out forms** — Enter data into text fields, dropdowns, date pickers, and other form elements.
* **Click and interact** — Press buttons, select menu items, and use any interactive page element.
* **Extract information** — Read and capture data from web pages for use in downstream steps.
* **Upload and download files** — Attach files to web forms or download documents, reports, and exports from portals.
* **Authenticate with stored logins** — Sign into protected sites using logins saved in My Logins, without exposing passwords. Sites that require HTTP Basic Auth (browser-level username/password prompts) are handled automatically using matching stored credentials.
* **Complete end-to-end processes** — Chain actions across multiple pages to finish entire business workflows in a single job.

## Key Benefits

* **Universal access** — Work with any website or web application, including systems that have no API or modern connection options.
* **Human-like interaction** — Perform the same clicks, form fills, and navigation a person would, with no technical integration required.
* **Secure authentication** — Use stored logins to access protected sites while keeping credentials safe.
* **Full auditability** — Every browser action is tracked, giving you a clear record of what the assignment did and when.
* **Flexible automation** — Automate virtually any browser-based task without custom development or vendor cooperation.

## Works Well With

* **Gmail / Outlook** — Gather data from a web portal, then draft and send a summary email with the results.
* **Google Sheets** — Extract information from vendor websites or internal dashboards and write it directly into a spreadsheet for reporting.
* **Snowflake** — Pull reference data from a database, then use the browser to enter it into a legacy system that only has a web interface.
