Maybe it worth mentioning we have a tool in the console to help you configure the connection URL: https://console.lightpanda.io/tools/script-generator


Example using [Playwright](https://playwright.dev/).
```sh copy
export LPD_TOKEN="your token here"

I would move the env var export on each puppeteer/chromedp/playwright tabs, b/c we don't use it for CDP URL and it doesn't make sense for this sepcific (but default) tab.

nearest your script (it could be nearest you or nearest your server...)

- `wss://euwest.cloud.lightpanda.io/ws` (west Europe)
- `wss://uswest.cloud.lightpanda.io/ws` (west US)

The cloud serves Lightpanda by default. Add `browser=chrome` to run Google Chrome instead, or `browser=lightpanda` to force Lightpanda. To route traffic through a proxy, see [Configure a proxy](/guides/configure-a-proxy).

I don't think we should mention chrome. Or we must add chrome is offered for debug purpose only.

A token is shown once, when you create it. Save it somewhere safe. If you lose it, revoke it and create a new one.

**Sessions and logs.** Every browser you run on the cloud is a session. The console lists your recent sessions and lets you open one to inspect what happened, including its CDP logs and container logs. Reach for this when a script behaves differently on the cloud than it did locally, or when a session ends earlier than you expect.

CDP Logs are available only for Chrome for now. I won't mention it here.
