Type

Type text into an element, sending key events as the text is entered.

terminal 
pinchtab type e8 "Ada Lovelace"
curl -X POST http://localhost:9867/action \  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \  -d '{"kind":"type","ref":"e8","text":"Ada Lovelace"}'
Response 
{
  "success": true,
  "result": {
    "success": true
  }
}

Notes:

  • use fill when you want to set the value more directly
  • top-level type expects a ref, not a CSS selector
