This action opens a link in a Chrome window.

Example input

Using a variable or table reference

Open in New Tab

To open the website in a new tab, simply check the checkbox shown below:

Note that when new tab is opened, the tab stays in the background. This is normal. The TaskBot makes a new tab active but it doesn't bring it to the front. This doesn't impede TaskBot run and doesn't impede it from operating in that new tab. If this is inconvenient for you because this impedes you from watching TaskBot perform its actions, either click manually on the tab that the TaskBot switched to or add Switch or Close Tab building block to close the tabs that are inactive.
