The URL Node performs one deterministic action: navigating the browser to a specific web address. It is the simplest way to reposition your workflow, start a session, or jump between portals and domains.

Simple Navigation

Direct the browser to any URL instantly

Workflow Integration

Cleanly connect navigation to subsequent nodes

Start Node

Commonly used as the first step of a workflow

Universal Access

Navigate to any publicly accessible webpage

Configuration

URL

Provide the full URL the browser should open. A valid URL includes:
  • Protocol: https:// or http://
  • Domain: example.com
  • Path: /login, /dashboard, /products/42
  • Query parameters: ?id=123&type=user
Example:
https://example.com/login

Node Settings

Start Node

Toggle this option to mark the URL node as the entry point of your workflow.
  • The browser opens directly at this URL
  • No preceding nodes are required
  • Ideal when the workflow begins at a login page, dashboard, or landing page
What happens when the URL node runs:
  • The browser navigates immediately to the specified URL
  • The node waits for the page to finish loading
  • Redirects (301/302) are followed automatically
  • Control then moves to the next connected node

Transitions

Critical: URL Nodes Require Outcome Success TransitionsURL nodes can ONLY be connected to the next node using an Outcome Success transition type. This is the only acceptable transition type for URL nodes.
  • URL nodes cannot use AI Transitions or Selector Transitions
  • If a URL node doesn’t have an Outcome Success transition connecting it to the next node, it won’t work properly
  • Always ensure your URL node has one Outcome Success transition to continue the workflow
For more details, see Transitions.

Use Cases

Start the automation by navigating to a login page, dashboard, or target system.
Cleanly transition between sections, domains, or portals within a larger workflow.
Navigate to a stable “known good page” to recover from UI drift or unpredictable states.
