Overview
Execute actions using connected user sessions
Once a user has connected their account to your application using Anon Link, you can begin automating actions on their behalf with the connected session.
Connect Users with Anon Link
User connects their account to your app using Anon Link.
Perform Actions with Anon Actions
Use the Anon Runtime SDK and Actions API to automate actions on the user’s connected account.
How it Works
Here’s an overview of how the user session execution flow works:
Retrieve the connected user session
Your backend server makes an API call to Anon to retrieve an authenticated session for the specified user and service.
Execute automation script
Your automation script is executed, allowing it to interact with the target website as the authenticated user.
Return the result
The Anon SDK captures the result of your automation script and returns it to your backend server for further processing.
Throughout the execution flow, Anon optimizes the session for performance and reliability. User sessions are intelligently routed through our global proxy network to avoid CAPTCHAs and rate limits. If a session expires or encounters issues, Anon will automatically attempt to refresh it or prompt your user to re-authenticate.
Anon manages the complex aspects of session handling so you can focus on building robust automations with minimal effort. Head over to our guide on running authenticated sessions to get started.
