Control and interact with a live browser session on any scraped page — click buttons, fill forms, navigate flows, and extract data using natural language prompts or code. Replaces the old firecrawl-browser command. Use when the user needs to interact with a webpage beyond simple scraping: logging into a site, submitting forms, clicking through pagination, handling infinite scroll, navigating multi-step checkout or wizard flows, or when a regular scrape failed because content is behind JavaScript interaction. Also useful for authenticated scraping via profiles. Triggers on "browser", "instruct", "click", "fill out the form", "log in to", "sign in", "submit", "paginated", "next page", "infinite scroll", "interact with the page", "navigate to", "open a session", or "scrape failed".

firecrawl instruct

Interact with scraped pages in a live browser session. Scrape a page first, then use natural language prompts or code to click, fill forms, navigate, and extract data.

When to use

  • Content requires interaction: clicks, form fills, pagination, login
  • scrape failed because content is behind JavaScript interaction
  • You need to navigate a multi-step flow
  • Last resort in the workflow escalation pattern: search → scrape → map → crawl → instruct
  • Never use instruct for web searches — use search instead

Quick start

bash
# 1. Scrape a page (scrape ID is saved automatically)
firecrawl scrape "<url>"
 
# 2. Interact with the page using natural language
firecrawl interact --prompt "Click the login button"
firecrawl interact --prompt "Fill in the email field with test@example.com"
firecrawl interact --prompt "Extract the pricing table"
 
# 3. Or use code for precise control
firecrawl interact --code "agent-browser click @e5" --language bash
firecrawl interact --code "agent-browser snapshot -i" --language bash
 
# 4. Stop the session when done
firecrawl interact stop

Options

OptionDescription
--prompt <text>Natural language instruction (use this OR --code)
--code <code>Code to execute in the browser session
--language <lang>Language for code: bash, python, node
--timeout <seconds>Execution timeout (default: 30, max: 300)
--scrape-id <id>Target a specific scrape (default: last scrape)
-o, --output <path>Output file path

Profiles

Use --profile on the scrape to persist browser state (cookies, localStorage) across scrapes:

bash
# Session 1: Login and save state
firecrawl scrape "https://app.example.com/login" --profile my-app
firecrawl interact --prompt "Fill in email with user@example.com and click login"
 
# Session 2: Come back authenticated
firecrawl scrape "https://app.example.com/dashboard" --profile my-app
firecrawl interact --prompt "Extract the dashboard data"

Read-only reconnect (no writes to profile state):

bash
firecrawl scrape "https://app.example.com" --profile my-app --no-save-changes

Tips

  • Always scrape first — interact requires a scrape ID from a previous firecrawl scrape call
  • The scrape ID is saved automatically, so you don't need --scrape-id for subsequent interact calls
  • Use firecrawl interact stop to free resources when done
  • For parallel work, scrape multiple pages and interact with each using --scrape-id
