​
Context

A flow is the base building block of Oversteer. It is a essentially a saved set of steps that can be used to deterministically run and accomplish web tasks.

​
Implementation

Within the Oversteer dashboard, navigate to the Create tab and follow the instructions. Once the flow creation is kicked off, wait and watch to see the steps be generated. If the flow is successful, you can continue to Running a Flow. Otherwise, try creating the flow again, possibly with a more descriptive, step-by-step prompt.

​
Configuration

​
Required

  • Starting URL: The initial page the flow should start on. Ideally, this URL is very relevant to the page where the task must be executed.
  • Prompt: The goal that the flow will attempt to achieve. Ideally, this prompt conveys task intent and includes step-by-step instructions of how to do it.

​
Optional

  • Browser profile: The browser profile the flow will use. Recommended for flows that need authenticated sessions. To do so, users must create a browser profile that is logged in to the desired website and select that at flow creation.
  • Browser location: The location of the browser proxy used. Recommended for websites that require a certain geographical location to access.
  • Structured output: Structured JSON schema of what the flow should output. Recommended for web scraping, extraction, and monitoring tasks.
  • Sensitive data: Sensitive data, such as login information, that the agent may need to complete the task. This data is securely encrypted and protected.
