firecrawl interact

Interact with scraped pages in a live browser session. Scrape a page first, then use natural language prompts or code to click, fill forms, navigate, and extract data.

When to use

  • Content requires interaction: clicks, form fills, pagination, login

  • scrape failed because content is behind JavaScript interaction

  • You need to navigate a multi-step flow

  • Last resort in the workflow escalation pattern: search → scrape → map → crawl → interact

  • Never use interact for web searches — use search instead

Options

Option Description --prompt <text> Natural language instruction (use this OR --code) --code <code> Code to execute in the browser session --language <lang> Language for code: bash, python, node --timeout <seconds> Execution timeout (default: 30, max: 300) --scrape-id <id> Target a specific scrape (default: last scrape) -o, --output <path> Output file path

Profiles

Use --profile on the scrape to persist browser state (cookies, localStorage) across scrapes:

Copy & paste — that's it
# Session 1: Login and save state
firecrawl scrape "https://app.example.com/login" --profile my-app
firecrawl interact --prompt "Fill in email with [email protected] and click login"

# Session 2: Come back authenticated
firecrawl scrape "https://app.example.com/dashboard" --profile my-app
firecrawl interact --prompt "Extract the dashboard data"

Read-only reconnect (no writes to profile state):

Copy & paste — that's it
firecrawl scrape "https://app.example.com" --profile my-app --no-save-changes

Tips

  • Always scrape first — interact requires a scrape ID from a previous firecrawl scrape call

  • The scrape ID is saved automatically, so you don't need --scrape-id for subsequent interact calls

  • Use firecrawl interact stop to free resources when done

  • For parallel work, scrape multiple pages and interact with each using --scrape-id
