Can n8n Cloud Support Web Navigation via Chrome Extensions?

Based on the current n8n documentation, there isn’t a built-in feature in n8n Cloud (or in the self-hosted versions) that directly supports navigating the web in Chrome or interacting with a specific Chrome extension. n8n is designed primarily as a workflow automation tool, integrating with various services and APIs, rather than providing browser automation or direct control of browser extensions.

If your use case depends on interfacing with a Chrome extension for web research or data gathering, you might consider one of these approaches:

• External Automation Tools: Use a dedicated browser automation tool (such as Puppeteer, Selenium, or a similar framework) to perform the Chrome navigation and extension interaction. You can then integrate its output or API with an n8n workflow.
• Custom Integration: Develop a custom solution that runs your browser automation script and then triggers an n8n workflow (via Webhook or another method) once the data is ready.
