Automation Browser

Posted on by Nathon

In various places within the Power Automate Desktop app dialogs and Power Automate website, Power Automate Desktop refers to the "Automation Browser" as the preferred browser to use for automation. However, I have searched everywhere for it and can't seem to find where to get that browser. I need to perform steps like clicking a link that results in a download file. Unfortunately that doesn't work properly with the various browser extensions. The documentation says that only works with the Automation Browser.

Does anyone know where to find the Automation Browser?

Its not in Chrome or any other browser.
Drop in one of these browser actions, it will become clear to you..

can you provide a larger screen shot. I'm not able to figure out where that browser automation is?

I want to make sure it set up in my office. I may already have the automation browser but i would like to double check.

When I am on EDGE i see the power automate icon - so i assume i have the automation browser.

BUT When I use Chrome (my preferred browser) I dont have that. I want to make sure I have the browser for chrome so that I dont have strange compatibility issues.
