Headless Browser Automation using UiPath | Explained Open Browser & Use Application/Browser Activity

Hello,

What is Headless Browser?

A headless browser is a web browser without a graphical user interface. Headless browsers provide automated control of a web page in an environment similar to web browsers, but they are executed using a command-line interface or using network communication.

Headless execution is always faster than normal GUI execution. So we can use either modern or classic activities to achieve this by doing some web driver settings that are explained in the below video.

If you are looking for a headless execution as part of your automation, you can watch the video for a better understanding.

Please do share your valuable feedback … :slightly_smiling_face:
