Launching Sessions
Instructions for launching and configuring sessions in Browsolate.
Built-in utilities
If EnableLauncherUI and PublicAPIAccess have been enabled at installation, a launcher page is available at
https://<aws_region>.<your_subdomain>.isolated.browsolate.com:5443/launcher.html
This page provides an easy-to-use interface for configuring and launching secure, isolated browsing sessions.
Advanced session options can be accessed by appending the advanced query parameter to the URL.
https://<aws_region>.<your_subdomain>.isolated.browsolate.com:5443/launcher.html?advanced
At its core, launching a session simply involves navigating the end-users browser to a properly formatted URL. The launcher page is designed to generate these URLs based on the session settings you define. However, you are not limited to using the launcher page; URLs can be programmatically constructed within your own application.
To create session URLs programmatically, follow the guide Creating an Isolated Link.

Browser Extensions
These extensions must be installed in developer mode.
For Chromium-based Browsers (Edge/Chrome)
Configure the extension with the root URL for your Browsolate instance.
You may either use the extension with the API (Enter management password), or include the base64 URL encryption key in the extension configuration.
