HARPA Grid — Browser Automation API

HARPA Grid lets you orchestrate real web browsers remotely. You can scrape pages, search the web, run built-in or custom AI commands, and send AI prompts with full page context — all through a single REST endpoint.

Prerequisites

The user must have:

1. HARPA AI Chrome Extension installed from https://harpa.ai
2. At least one active Node — a browser with HARPA running (configured in the extension's AUTOMATE tab)
3. A HARPA API key — obtained from the HARPA extension AUTOMATE tab. The key is provided as the HARPA_API_KEY environment variable.

If the user hasn't set up HARPA yet, direct them to: https://harpa.ai/grid/browser-automation-node-setup

API Reference

Endpoint: POST https://api.harpa.ai/api/v1/grid Auth: Authorization: Bearer $HARPA_API_KEY Content-Type: application/json

Actions

1. Scrape a Web Page

Extract full page content (as markdown) or specific elements via CSS/XPath/text selectors.

Full page scrape:

curl -s -X POST https://api.harpa.ai/api/v1/grid \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HARPA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "action": "scrape",
    "url": "https://example.com",
    "timeout": 15000
  }'

Targeted element scrape (grab):

curl -s -X POST https://api.harpa.ai/api/v1/grid \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HARPA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "action": "scrape",
    "url": "https://example.com/products",
    "grab": [
      {
        "selector": ".product-title",
        "selectorType": "css",
        "at": "all",
        "take": "innerText",
        "label": "titles"
      },
      {
        "selector": ".product-price",
        "selectorType": "css",
        "at": "all",
        "take": "innerText",
        "label": "prices"
      }
    ],
    "timeout": 15000
  }'

Grab fields:

Field	Required	Default	Values
selector	yes	—	CSS (.class, #id), XPath (//h2), or text content
selectorType	no	auto	auto, css, xpath, text
at	no	first	all, first, last, or a number
take	no	innerText	innerText, textContent, innerHTML, outerHTML, href, value, id, className, attributes, styles, [attrName], (styleName)
label	no	data	Custom label for extracted data

2. Search the Web (SERP)

Perform a web search. Supports operators like site:, intitle:.

curl -s -X POST https://api.harpa.ai/api/v1/grid \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HARPA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "action": "serp",
    "query": "OpenClaw AI agent framework",
    "timeout": 15000
  }'

3. Run an AI Command

Execute one of 100+ built-in HARPA commands or a custom automation on a target page.

curl -s -X POST https://api.harpa.ai/api/v1/grid \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HARPA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "action": "command",
    "url": "https://example.com/article",
    "name": "Extract data",
    "inputs": "List all headings with their word counts",
    "connection": "HARPA AI",
    "resultParam": "message",
    "timeout": 30000
  }'

• name — command name (e.g. "Summary", "Extract data", or any custom command)
• inputs — pre-filled user inputs for multi-step commands
• resultParam — HARPA parameter to return as result (default: "message")
• connection — AI model to use (e.g. "HARPA AI", "gpt-4o", "claude-3.5-sonnet")

4. Run an AI Prompt

Send a custom AI prompt with page context. Use {{page}} to inject the page content.

curl -s -X POST https://api.harpa.ai/api/v1/grid \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HARPA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "action": "prompt",
    "url": "https://example.com",
    "prompt": "Analyze the current page and extract all contact information. Webpage: {{page}}",
    "connection": "CHAT AUTO",
    "timeout": 30000
  }'

Common Parameters

Parameter	Required	Default	Description
action	yes	—	scrape, serp, command, or prompt
url	no	—	Target page URL (ignored by serp)
node	no	—	Node ID ("r2d2"), multiple ("r2d2 c3po"), first N ("5"), or all ("*")
timeout	no	300000	Max wait time in ms (max 5 minutes)
resultsWebhook	no	—	URL to POST results to asynchronously (retained 30 days)
connection	no	—	AI model for command/prompt actions

Node Targeting

• Omit node to use the default node
• "node": "mynode" — target a specific node by ID
• "node": "node1 node2" — target multiple nodes
• "node": "3" — use first 3 available nodes
• "node": "*" — broadcast to all nodes

Async Results via Webhook

Set resultsWebhook to receive results asynchronously. The action stays alive for up to 30 days, useful when target nodes are temporarily offline.

{
  "action": "scrape",
  "url": "https://example.com",
  "resultsWebhook": "https://your-server.com/webhook",
  "timeout": 15000
}

Tips

• Scraping behind-login pages works because HARPA runs inside a real browser session with the user's cookies and auth state.
• Use the grab array with multiple selectors to extract structured data in a single request.
• For long-running AI commands, increase timeout (max 300000ms / 5 min) or use resultsWebhook.
• The {{page}} variable in prompts injects the full page content — use it to give AI context about the current page.
