Hi @Wong_Chee_Mun

Welcome to UiPath Forum.

The below topic will definitely give you an idea on how to use it and where to use it

How to use "Navigate to" in a opened browser?

Hi, Is it possible to use “Navigate to” in a opened browser? I intend to use invoked workflow and it needs to open a website in a opened browser. If it is possible, how can I do that?

Hope this will be helpful. Thank you.

While using the Open Brower you will this as a output (Type: Browser)

and use the same variable in NavigateTo activity as a browser input.

Thank you.

Hi @Wong_Chee_Mun

Welcome to Uipath Forum
Here browser variable is returned by the activity
Store the Output in the Variable Uipath.core.Browser

1. Attach browser Activity
   
   
2. Navigate To
   
   
3. Variable panel

Hi,

I think it’s useful when use Invoke Workflow file. If we pass Browser instance, same browser-tab is always used in both caller and callee. The following is simple example.

Caller

Callee

Hope this helps you,

Hi,

There are some activities which has Browser type input such as AttachBrowser, CloseTab, GoBack, GoForward, GoHome, NavigateTo and RefreshBrowser, as the following.

These activities can manipulate target browser (tab) even outside OpenBrowser /Attach Browser activity container if use Browser instance. (in same workflow or other workflow such as the above sample.)
