InvokeBrowser
Invokes an operating system-level action on a browser session in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. This operation provides direct OS-level control over browser sessions, enabling mouse actions, keyboard input, and screenshots that the WebSocket-based Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) cannot handle — such as interacting with print dialogs, context menus, and JavaScript alerts.
You send a request with exactly one action in the BrowserAction union, and receive a corresponding result in the BrowserActionResult union.
