Humans-in-the-loop can access the live view of Kernel browsers in real-time to resolve errors or take unscripted actions. To access the live view, visit the browser_live_view_url provided when you create a Kernel browser: 
import Kernel from '@onkernel/sdk';

const kernel = new Kernel();

const browser = await kernel.browsers.create();
console.log(browser.browser_live_view_url);

​
Query parameters

The browser_live_view_url supports additional query parameters to customize the live view:
  • readOnly (bool): when set to true, the view will be non-interactive.
Example: 
https://api.onkernel.com/browser/live/<TOKEN>?readOnly=true

​
Kiosk mode

Kiosk mode provides a fullscreen live view experience without browser UI elements like the address bar and tabs. You can enable kiosk mode when creating a browser by setting the kiosk_mode parameter to true. 
const browser = await kernel.browsers.create({
    kiosk_mode: true
});

​
Browser persistence

browser_live_view_url becomes invalid once the browser is deleted manually or via timeout.
