Go To Web Page

Open an HTTP(S) address or move back and forward in the assigned tab. Use saved Values in URLs and wait for navigation before the next step.

Use Go To Web Page to open a saved http(s) URL in the assigned tab and wait for load, or to move Back or Forward in this tab’s session history. Add it from Add Step when later steps should open a different URL than Start, or return to the previous page.

The graph always begins with Start, not this step. Tab & Startup in Add New or Edit binds the Chrome tab. Start stores the landing URL. Play and Repeat navigate there with tabs.update, not a reload. Picking links for For Each Link also writes that page as the Start URL.

A URL opens the address saved on the step and interpolates Values with {{name}}. Back and Forward move this tab’s session history. Start and every Go To mode wait for the tab to finish loading. They do not reload the current page.

How to add it

Add Step → Go To Web Page. Choose A URL, Back, or Forward. For a URL, type or pick an http(s) URL.

Use Refresh Page to reload the current page. Start remains the initial destination for the graph. Back and Forward use this tab’s session history, without reading Chrome’s browsing-history database. If the URL does not change, or the destination is not HTTP(S), the step fails.

The side panel tour shows the Start card. Walking through links uses Start as the listing page Play re-scrapes.
