Recording sequences | Leapwork Docs

Starting a Recording

1. Open your browser and navigate to the application you want to test.

2. In Go, click Record.

3. Choose the hostname you want to capture. You can record:

   • All URLs or
   • Hostname-only (recommended for cleaner recordings).

4. Click Start recording, then interact with your application (for example, refresh a page or submit a form).

5. Click Stop when finished to stop the recording.

Go automatically lists each network request as a step. You can expand any step to view details such as:

• Request and response payloads
• Headers and parameters
• Timing metrics and status codes

Manually adding HTTP call

If you already have API requests defined, you can import them directly:

1. Right-click on an empty space inside a sequence

2. Click add HTTP call

3. Go now adds an empty HTTP call for you to add:

   1. Method - choose between GET, POST, PUT and DELETE
   2. URL
   3. Expected request:
      1. Parameters
      2. Headers
      3. Host
      4. Cookies
   4. Expected response:
      1. Status code
      2. Cookies

Manually adding cURL

If you already have API requests defined as cURLs, you can import them directly:

1. Right-click on an empty space inside a sequence

2. Click Paste cURL as HTTP step

3. Paste a bash or CMD cURL command.

4. Go automatically converts it into a structured HTTP step that can be edited, parameterized, and reused.

Previewing Your Recording

Click Preview to execute your sequence. Go will:

• Run each recorded step.
• Display real-time execution progress with green indicators for success.
• Show per-step response times and results.

Once validated, rename your sequence for easy reference.
