OttoMagic - Browser Control via GPAL's REST API

Control your real browser with HTTP requests from any language, no driver needed. Plays back OttoMatic and GPAL workflows.

OttoMagic lets you control your browser with a REST API. Send HTTP requests to GPALRestAPI from any language (C#, Python, JavaScript, PowerShell, curl) and OttoMagic carries them out in the browser you already use, with your profile, logins and cookies intact. No WebDriver, no driver downloads, no separate automation browser. OttoMagic is the execution half of the GPAL automation toolchain. OttoMatic records what you do and generates GPAL code; OttoMagic and GPALRestAPI run that code against live pages. • Record and replay: install OttoMatic and OttoMagic. • Run workflows or call the API directly: install OttoMagic and GPALRestAPI. WHAT IT DOES • User input: clicks (left, double, middle, right), drag and drop, modifier keys, typing and key presses, targeted by selector. • Hard-to-reach elements: works inside shadow roots and nested iframes, so workflows keep running in web components and embedded content. • Element and page state: check whether an element is clickable, displayed, enabled or in view before acting, so workflows wait for the page instead of guessing with fixed delays. • Data extraction: read DOM attributes and properties, computed CSS, element positions and page content, and capture the network calls a page makes. • Full browser control: navigation, tabs and windows, scrolling, downloads with filename control, cookies, user agent and referrer headers. • Built-in controller: open /controller for a workflow builder page where you can create, save and load workflows and run them with just OttoMagic and GPALRestAPI, no GPAL code needed. REQUIREMENTS OttoMagic talks to GPALRestAPI on your machine through native messaging. Download GPALRestAPI separately: https://gpal.sditx.com/gpal-rest-api The browser starts GPALRestAPI when OttoMagic loads; it only has to be installed. Everything runs locally
