Hi all, How to directly use the same signed in browser without always opening new browser window? ie if we start a workflow it always open a guest user(Chrome) and not the signed in one. ---

Hi @Nidhi_Prem, Welcome to the community. Unfortunately, that’s the only way Web Automation works with AutomationEdge. In real-life scenarios, if the bot can control and access an already open browser with user credentials, there a risk of the bot being able to misuse the credentials and hence a security liability. Hence, the decision. ---
