Can I take a full-page screenshot using the agent?

Yes! Use the `take_screenshot` tool and in the `options` field, provide a JSON string like `{"fullPage": true}`. Browserless will capture the entire length of the page.

How do I convert a web page to a PDF?

Simply ask the agent to `generate_pdf` and provide the URL. It will use Browserless to render the page and return the generated PDF file (usually as a binary response or link).

Does the integration allow scraping specific data fields?

Yes. Use the `run_scrape` action and provide the URL along with an `elements` array containing the selectors and names for the data you want to extract.

Browserless + AutoGen FAQ

Common questions about integrating Browserless MCP Server with AutoGen.

How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?

Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Browserless tools during their conversation turns.

Can different agents have different MCP tool access?

Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
