| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
agent_config |
string | no | Agent behavior configuration |
api_integration |
string | no | Name of the integration making this API call (e.g., “dify”, “zapier”, “n8n”). Used for analytics. Example: “dify” |
browser_profile |
string | no | Browser profile for execution. LITE uses standard browser, STEALTH uses anti-detection browser. |
capture_config |
string | no | Configure which data to capture during the run. |
credential_item_ids |
array | no | Scope vault credentials to specific credential URIs. Requires use_vault to be true. If omitted with use_vault: true, all enabled items are used. |
goal |
string | yes | Natural language description of what to accomplish on the website. Example: “Find the pricing page and extract all plan details” |
output_schema |
string | no | Optional provider-supported structured-output schema subset for the run result. Unsupported fields are rejected before the request is accepted. |
profile_id |
string | no | Browser Context Profile ID to use when use_profile is true. |
proxy_config |
string | no | Proxy configuration |
url |
string | yes | Target website URL to automate. Example: “https://example.com” |
use_profile |
boolean | no | Opt-in to the default Browser Context Profile if Browser Context Profiles are enabled; legacy callers are silently ignored when the profiles feature is disabled. Returns 400 when enabled but no default profile is set. |
use_vault |
boolean | no | Opt-in to vault credentials for this run. When true, enabled vault items are included. Defaults to false. Example: true |
webhook_url |
string | no | HTTPS URL to receive webhook notifications for run lifecycle events. Must use HTTPS. |
Providers and prices

| TinyFish Search API | tinyfish-automation-run |
$0.016 per result |

Output
The run’s result holds the provider’s answer. Signed in, looot inspect tinyfish-automation-run prints its fields.
Run it
Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.
