Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://docs.gpmautomate.com/automate-en/action-guides/navigation/back-url.md). # Back URL Back URL is the action of instructing the browser to return to the previously visited webpage in the browsing history, similar to clicking the back arrow button in the top left corner of the Chrome or Firefox browser. This action works automatically and does not have any accompanying configuration parameters. #### Real-world example: Returning to the product list after checking details When you script data scraping or enhance interaction (buff follow/like), the usual flow is: from the summary list page, you click on a detail link to check information or press the follow button. After completing the task on that detail page, instead of using the Go to URL action to re-enter the address of the list page from the beginning (which requires the website to reload all data from the server, taking a lot of time): * How to apply: You just need to insert the Back URL action. * Result: The browser immediately goes back one step to the previous list page instantly, allowing the script to run smoothly, saving network bandwidth, and optimizing the processing speed of the flow. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.gpmautomate.com/automate-en/action-guides/navigation/back-url.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
