# computer_action

> Mouse, keyboard, and screenshot controls for browser sessions

Execute computer actions on a browser session. Pass a single action for simple operations, or pass multiple actions to batch them into one request for lower latency.

<Tip>Always include a `screenshot` as the last action so you can see the result. `screenshot` and `get_mouse_position` return data, so they must come last.</Tip>
