Bypassing the "Cannot access contents of url "chrome-error://chromewebdata/"." Error

[doroness]

Hi
I'm using Automa to check URLs. Some don't exist anymore (e.g. http://thisdontexcists.com/). I'm trying to run some JS code that uses the {{activeTabUrl}}. IF the URL produces the "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN" - the following error is logged.

Cannot access contents of URL "chrome-error://chromewebdata/". Extension manifest must request permission to access this host.

Is there a way to avoid this? i.e if-then statement or somehow provide the needed permission? (so the flow won't stop).

It's currently not possible to bypass that, but I had added a HTTP request block with a fallback, so you can use that to check if the web exists or not

Hi. Thank you. That sounds good. I'm using the chrome extension(version 0.17.4), and I don't see that block. How can I use it?
