Browser Automation

Browser Automation That Connects the Unconnected

When systems don't provide an API, OnWebApp can interact with them through the browser—automating repetitive actions across the tools your business already uses.

Automate the work. Keep your existing systems.

What Browser Automation Enables

Turn Manual Browser Work Into Automated Workflows

Many business processes still depend on clicking through dashboards, portals, and web applications. OnWebApp uses browser automation as part of larger workflows to handle these repetitive interactions reliably.

Navigate web applications automatically

Open portals, dashboards and internal tools, move through the screens a person would normally click, and reach the right page reliably every time.

Enter and validate information

Fill in forms, check the values against business rules, and only submit once the data is actually correct.

Extract data from web interfaces

Read structured information out of web pages and feed it into the next stage of the workflow.

Upload and download documents

Handle files that only exist inside a web interface, from invoices and reports to attachments and statements.

Submit forms and requests

Complete and lodge requests through portals that have no API, applying the same validation a person would.

Move information between disconnected systems

Transfer data from one platform into another when the two cannot talk to each other directly.

Trigger actions based on workflow conditions

Start browser work automatically when a business rule is met, rather than on a fixed schedule alone.

Monitor browser-based processes

Track what ran, what succeeded and what needs attention, instead of finding out when something breaks.

Beyond APIs

When There's No API, Automation Doesn't Stop

Modern integrations often rely on APIs. But businesses still use legacy platforms, private portals, internal tools, and third-party applications that aren't designed for direct integration.

That's where browser automation becomes part of the OnWebApp automation layer.

API available?

Use a direct integration.

Where a supported API exists, it is always the cleaner, faster and more stable route.

Browser Automation
No API available?

Automate the browser interaction.

The same work a person does through the interface, performed reliably and re-run as often as needed.

Multiple systems involved?

Connect the entire process through a unified workflow.

APIs, browser steps and manual checkpoints handled as one connected process rather than separate jobs.

How It Fits Into OnWebApp

Browser Automation Is One Layer of a Larger System

Every automated process runs through the same path, whether it ends at an API, a database, or a browser.

1
Trigger

A schedule, a webhook, a new record, or a completed step in another workflow.

2
Workflow Engine

The process is loaded, its state tracked, and its branches resolved.

3
Business Logic

Rules, thresholds and required approvals are applied before anything is actioned.

API Integration / Browser Automation

The step is carried out through a direct API call, or through the browser when no API exists.

5
Data Processing

Extracted values are normalised, transformed and written where they belong.

6
Action

Records are updated, documents filed, requests submitted and the next step released.

7
Reporting & Monitoring

The run is logged, timed and surfaced on dashboards and alerts.

Browser automation doesn't operate in isolation. It works alongside OnWebApp's workflow engine, integrations, data processing, monitoring, and automation capabilities.

Example Workflow

From Customer Request to Completed Operation

A single request, carried through the layers above until the work is genuinely finished and visible.

1
Customer Request

A request enters the system.

2
Data Validation

Information is checked against business rules.

Browser Automation

A web portal is opened and the required information is entered.

4
Document Processing

Documents are uploaded or retrieved.

5
System Update

Results are synchronized with the relevant business systems.

6
Notification

The appropriate team receives an update.

7
Reporting

The complete operation becomes visible through dashboards and monitoring.

Built for Real Business Processes

Automate the Interfaces Your Business Already Depends On

Browser automation can support workflows involving:

Internal Portals

Automate repetitive operations inside company web applications.

Legacy Systems

Connect older systems that lack modern integration capabilities.

Administrative Work

Reduce repetitive data entry, form completion, and document handling.

Operations

Execute recurring browser-based procedures according to predefined rules.

Data Collection

Retrieve structured information from web interfaces and feed it into business workflows.

Automation With Control

Designed to Run as Part of a Controlled Workflow

OnWebApp doesn't treat automation as a simple browser script. Browser interactions can be connected to business rules, validation, monitoring, and reporting.

  • Conditional execution
    Run actions only when predefined conditions are met.
  • Validation
    Check information before submitting actions.
  • Monitoring
    Track workflow execution and operational status.
  • Error handling
    Detect failures and prevent incomplete workflows from silently passing through.
  • Auditability
    Keep operational events connected to the broader workflow.
Why It Matters

Less Repetitive Work. More Connected Operations.

Browser automation helps remove manual steps that slow down otherwise automated processes.

Reduce repetitive tasks

Let automated workflows handle routine browser interactions.

Bridge disconnected systems

Connect applications that cannot communicate directly.

Extend automation coverage

Automate processes beyond what traditional APIs can reach.

Create end-to-end workflows

Combine browser actions with APIs, databases, AI, documents, and business logic.

Technology

A Practical Layer Inside the Automation Stack

OnWebApp combines browser automation with:

Workflow orchestration API integrations Data processing AI-powered decision logic Document processing RPA Monitoring Business dashboards Notifications Reporting

The result is not simply an automated browser session—it is a connected business process.

Your Process Shouldn't Depend on Manual Clicking

If a critical workflow still requires people to repeatedly navigate the same screens, enter the same information, or move data between systems, OnWebApp can incorporate browser automation into a broader automated workflow.
