v2.99.1​

  • Bug fixes.
  • Dependency updates.

v2.99.0​

  • Dependency updates.
  • Add a hosted agent endpoint (/chromium/cli) where Browserless runs the LLM and drives the browser to complete a task, streaming progress to the CLI; LLM usage is billed as separate agent units.
  • Move the /unblock endpoint onto the BrowserQL stack, adding configurable waits, an optional WebSocket endpoint, and screenshots that honor the requested image format.
  • Add an Arkoselabs/FunCaptcha solver, detect captchas inside same-origin iframes, and improve rotate-captcha accuracy with honest solve reporting.
  • Make screenshots and PDFs best-effort after captcha solving, so a post-solve page navigation no longer fails the whole request.
  • Improve stealth realism so sessions more closely resemble a real-world browser (on by default).
  • Honor the operator argument in the waitForResponse, waitForRequest, if, and ifnot BQL mutations.
  • Return partial results from the BQL response() mutation when an individual response body is unavailable.
  • Bypass the limiter for BQL reconnect requests so in-progress sessions aren't dropped when a worker is under load.
  • Adjust consumption for requests that fail validation (for example a missing url).
  • Add OpenTelemetry session metrics (completed/rejected/active) and per-endpoint http.route span labels.

v2.98.1​

  • Updates to @browserless.io/browserless at v2.51.1 — Node.js 24.16.0, NPM 11.16.0, and puppeteer-core 25.1.0.

v2.96.1​

  • Improve /smart-scrape reliability against protected sites with target-aware proxy selection and improved captcha detection and solving.
  • Improve /unblock reliability with a request-wide timeout deadline, more robust browser startup, and waitUntil support for finer navigation control.
  • Fix copy-paste in LiveURL when the viewer is embedded in a cross-origin iframe (such as the Browserless account app).

v2.96.0​

  • Improve adblock list build resilience by falling back to a bundled snapshot when the upstream source is unreachable.

v2.95.2​

  • Fix in-page WebSocket connections for /function and /download endpoints being blocked on HTTPS deployments due to mixed-content restrictions.

v2.95.1​

  • Dependency updates.
  • Add Browserless.refreshProfile CDP method to update an existing profile's auth state in place without creating a duplicate.
  • Updates to @browserless.io/browserless at v2.49.0.
  • Reduce production Docker image size by removing development tooling from the final image.

v2.95.0​

  • Dependency updates.
  • Fix billing and Browser Session Ended tracking for persistent session and reconnect WebSocket connections (/session/connect/:id and /reconnect/:id); each WebSocket connection is now billed independently, restoring usage accounting for persistent-session traffic.
  • Add POST /profile/upload and POST /profile/refresh endpoints to create a profile from a pre-captured auth state or replace an existing profile's state in place, with server-side sanitization of cookies, origins, and IndexedDB plus a diagnostics field describing what was filtered or truncated.
  • Fix LiveURL OAuth login for authenticated profiles, and default the browser type to stealth when creating a profile without specifying one.

v2.94.1​

  • Dependency updates.
  • Cap live viewers at 5 per session ID on /live/<id> and return 429 Too Many Requests once exceeded, freeing slots automatically when viewers disconnect.
  • Include captcha detection and classification in snapshot captures, giving agents better visibility into security challenges encountered during automation.
  • Add an optional profile parameter to crawl requests for authenticated scraping; crawls now end early on critical errors, truncate oversized error messages, and return 503 if the profile service is unavailable.

v2.94.0​

  • Updates to @browserless.io/browserless at v2.48.3.
  • Dependency updates.
  • Fix agent snapshot generation when pages contain malformed or empty HTML attributes, so snapshots no longer fail on attribute encoding edge cases.
  • Add an optional profile parameter to /scrape requests for server-side hydration of authenticated browser profiles; requests that use a profile now require an API token and return clearer validation errors.
  • LiveURL sessions now show distinct end-of-session messages for timeouts versus manual closures, and the message is delivered before the socket disconnects so users actually see it.
  • Credit limit error messages now link to https://browserless.io/account/upgrade instead of the generic account page, and have minor grammar fixes.

  • Update @browserless.io/browserless to v2.48.2
