Automate API Reference

BrowserStack supports the use of REST API to access information about your tests via the command-line interface.

With the Automate APIs, you can get info about your Automate plan, project, build, and session details. The APIs are organized around REST and make use of the standard HTTP response codes. By default, all API responses are in the JSON format.

The following rate limits apply for API calls:

  • 1600 API requests per 5 minutes per user.
  • 160 API requests per second per IP address.

Use the following APIs as per your use-case
