VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

To add a go to page step to our automation, we can click the green plus icon inside of the automation. When we're looking at all of our steps, then in the middle here, we will see the option, go to page from here. We can either use a variable from our trigger or a scrape step or some other step. Um, or we can enter the URL we want to go to and make it always be the same one.

In this case, I'm just going to enter being. com as an example. Then we could save this step. Now this automation would go to Google. Then the second step is going to be going to Bing. We can also add go to page steps when we're recording our automation. Which I'll go into the recording view really quick.

Okay. We can add a go to page step here very similarly by clicking the green plus icon, then scroll down to go to page again, where we're performing the same thing of adding a URL. Um, maybe that's coming from a variable. Maybe it's not.
