View Session

Overview

Browserbase records all browser sessions executed through its platform, enabling you to debug, monitor, and understand exactly what your agents did on the web. Viewing a recorded session is essential for troubleshooting failed tasks, validating that automation worked as intended, and learning from session behavior. The session live view provides an interactive window where you can inspect network activity, logs, and the visual timeline of the session to identify issues or verify successful execution.

Before you begin

  • A Browserbase account with access to the dashboard at www.browserbase.com
  • Must be logged in to your Browserbase account
  • At least one completed or recorded browser session (the session from April 22, 12:53:55 PM must already exist in your account)
