Forward

The Forward step is used to move the browser forward in its history stack, similar to clicking the browser's forward button. If there is no forward history available, the step will have no effect.

Snappit Forward Step

⏩ Purpose​

This step is useful for workflows that may need to return to a page previously visited via the Back step or for navigating forward in conditional flows.

🧭 Behavior​

  • Attempts to navigate one step forward in the browser history
  • If forward history exists, it proceeds and waits for the page to load
  • If no forward history exists, the step silently completes without action

✅ Use Cases​

  • Returning to a page after temporarily going back
  • Resuming a workflow after a conditional detour
  • Navigating dynamically based on user or workflow actions

The Forward step adds flexibility to workflows by allowing controlled, browser-native navigation behavior.
