OpenAPI Specification

selenium-session-api-openapi.yml Raw ↑
openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: Selenium WebDriver (W3C Wire Protocol) Cookies Session API
  description: Selenium WebDriver implements the W3C WebDriver protocol — a platform- and language-neutral HTTP wire protocol used by out-of-process programs to remotely instruct browsers. This OpenAPI definition lists common endpoints exposed by a WebDriver remote end (e.g. a Selenium Grid node, selenium-standalone, or a browser-specific driver such as chromedriver/geckodriver). No authentication is defined by the W3C protocol itself; deployments typically front the endpoint with a reverse proxy or run on a private network.
