Optexity is a platform for building and running browser automations using AI-assisted element location and robust execution.
Parameters & Credentials
Do I need to build new automation for each user or login credentials?
Do I need to build new automation for each user or login credentials?
No. Use Parameters to run the same automation with different values. Pass credentials at runtime via the inference request.
How do I access parameter values?
How do I access parameter values?
Use the
{parameter_name[index]} syntax. For single values use {username[0]}. In loops, use {variable[index]} for the current iteration. See Parameters for details.How do I handle passwords and secrets securely?
