This extension helps you create browser automations in Edge. It can be installed from Studio, the Command Prompt, or from the Microsoft Store. Please note that Edge support is currently an experimental feature. If you encounter any issues, please consult the troubleshooting guide for Studio.

Before you develop automation projects in Edge, it's important to know that Microsoft is planning to make Edge a Chromium-based browser. As such, current automation projects in Edge are not going to be compatible with a Chromium-based Edge browser.
