Browser close reasons
A browser session may close for a variety of reasons, occasionally due to connection errors or errors in the headless browser instance. As a best practice, wrap puppeteer.connect
or puppeteer.launch
in a try/catch
↗ statement.
To find the reason that a browser closed:
-
In the Cloudflare dashboard, go to the Browser Rendering page.
Go to Browser Rendering -
Select the Logs tab.
Browser Rendering sessions are billed based on usage. We do not charge for sessions that error due to underlying Browser Rendering infrastructure.
Reasons a session may end |
