How do AI agents handle CAPTCHA or security checks in forms?

Most agents cannot bypass CAPTCHA by design. They rely on manual intervention or integrate with third-party solvers, but for enterprise use, it's best to use forms that don't require CAPTCHA or have an API alternative.

Can I automate forms that require file uploads?

Yes, many agents support file uploads by specifying a local path or URL. The agent will locate the upload field, click it, and provide the file path automatically.

What if the form layout changes after I set up the automation?

Agents with flexible field detection (e.g., using labels or placeholder text) can adapt to minor changes. For major redesigns, you may need to update the automation script or retrain the agent.
