Browser Compatibility
Agentic Workflow Studio runs entirely inside your browser.
Because of this, browser choice and settings directly affect how workflows behave.
This page explains:
- Which browsers are supported
- Known limitations
- Simple steps to fix common issues
Supported Browsers
Section titled “Supported Browsers”Agentic Workflow Studio relies on modern browser APIs for automation, DOM access, and local AI execution.
| Browser | Support Level | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Google Chrome | Fully supported | Recommended |
| Microsoft Edge | Fully supported | Chromium-based |
| Firefox | Partial support | Some automation nodes may not work |
| Safari | Not supported | Technical limitations |
Why Browser Choice Matters
Section titled “Why Browser Choice Matters”Some workflow nodes require advanced browser capabilities, such as:
- Accessing page content and HTML
- Simulating clicks and form input
- Waiting for elements to appear
- Running local AI models
- Storing workflows and knowledge locally
Not all browsers expose these features in the same way.
Chrome and Edge (Recommended)
Section titled “Chrome and Edge (Recommended)”These browsers provide full support for:
- Page interaction nodes (click, fill, scroll, submit)
- Data extraction nodes
- Triggering workflows from any webpage
- Local storage, vector databases, and RAG
- Marketplace workflows
If the Extension Does Not Appear
Section titled “If the Extension Does Not Appear”If you do not see Agentic Workflow Studio in your toolbar or right-click menu:
- Open the extension manager
chrome://extensions/oredge://extensions/ - Make sure Agentic Workflow Studio is enabled
- Refresh the webpage you are working on
If the issue persists:
- Disable other automation extensions temporarily
- Restart the browser
Firefox (Limited Support)
Section titled “Firefox (Limited Support)”Firefox uses stricter security rules that limit what extensions can do on webpages.
What May Not Work Properly
Section titled “What May Not Work Properly”Some workflows may:
- Fail to click elements
- Stop when extracting page content
- Not detect dynamic elements
- Be blocked on certain websites
These are browser limitations, not workflow errors.
Recommendation
Section titled “Recommendation”If a workflow does not behave as expected in Firefox:
- Try the same workflow in Chrome or Edge
- Use Firefox only for simple workflows or testing
Safari (Not Supported)
Section titled “Safari (Not Supported)”Safari does not currently support the extension APIs required to run Agentic Workflow Studio.
What You Can Do Instead
Section titled “What You Can Do Instead”- Use Chrome or Edge on macOS
- Build workflows in another browser and share them
- Follow workflow execution via exported data
Safari support may be reconsidered in the future, but it is not on the current roadmap.
Common Problems and Quick Fixes
Section titled “Common Problems and Quick Fixes”Workflows Do Not Start
Section titled “Workflows Do Not Start”- Refresh the page
- Make sure the extension is enabled
- Check that the workflow trigger matches the page
Click or Fill Nodes Fail
Section titled “Click or Fill Nodes Fail”- The page may load content dynamically
→ Add a Wait step before the action - The website may block automation
→ Try a different selector or browser
See: Wait node
You can also explore the available browser automation nodes here: Browser extension nodes
Data Extraction Returns Empty Results
Section titled “Data Extraction Returns Empty Results”- The content may not be visible yet
- The page may be protected
- The browser may block access
Try:
- Adding a delay or wait node
- Running the workflow manually step by step
- Testing in Chrome or Edge
Permissions and Access
Section titled “Permissions and Access”Some websites restrict extension access.
If a workflow does not work on a specific site:
- Open the extension settings
- Allow access to the current website
- Reload the page
This is required for:
- Form filling
- Page scraping
- Trigger-based workflows
Performance Tips
Section titled “Performance Tips”For smoother execution:
- Close unused tabs
- Disable heavy extensions temporarily
- Avoid running many workflows at once
- Prefer Chrome or Edge with default settings
When to Ask for Help
Section titled “When to Ask for Help”Before reporting an issue, check:
- Browser name and version
- Whether the issue happens in Chrome
- Which node fails
- Whether the page loads content dynamically
