Instance Management
Start, stop, and restart browser instances attached to a container. Use these operations to bring a browser worker online, shut it down cleanly, or recycle it after a configuration change.
Hoody Browser
Section titled “Hoody Browser”The Hoody Browser service provides programmatic access to headless browser instances running inside the Hoody platform. Use it to render pages, evaluate JavaScript, manage tabs, and inspect runtime health for browser workers provisioned on your containers.
All Browser endpoints require authentication via the global cookie session, including the health check endpoint at GET /api/v1/browser/health, which is not exempt from the platform’s auth requirements.
Available operations
Section titled “Available operations”Browser Interaction
Drive a running browser instance: open pages, navigate to URLs, run JavaScript in the page context, and capture screenshots or other rendered output.
Instance Control
Inspect instance metadata, list and close open tabs, and perform other lifecycle controls on an existing browser worker without restarting it.
Health & Metrics
Query the browser service for its current health status and operational metrics, useful for liveness probes and dashboards.
