A: Andrew, That use case is difficult but if you are ok with small manual intervention every 24H then a flow can be designed to deal with the 2FA especially if after 2FA login there is a lo of data or actions that can be performed then its worth the Human intervention at the start of the automation. Please do a video screen recording of the flow and share it over a ticket and we can provide you with more contextualized guidance
Q: Could I use RTILA to click a button and download a file to Google Drive?
Or potentially send the file to a webhook for processing elsewhere
Secondly if RTILA has processed a page which is updated, can it detect where it left off? Eg if it is set to scrape a list of links on the page and new ones are added between runs. Does it only process the new ones
Q: Could I use RTILA to click a button and download a file to Google Drive? >>> Yes using Google Drive FTP as we have an FTP command, otherwise using the Web Interface you may need to also combine RTILA with Incogniton browser for the google account login session
Or potentially send the file to a webhook for processing elsewhere >>> Yes you can do this with our Webhook command see doc here: https://rtila.com/docs/webhook-send-request/
Secondly if RTILA has processed a page which is updated, can it detect where it left off? Eg if it is set to scrape a list of links on the page and new ones are added between runs. Does it only process the new ones >>> Yes but you need a database in between where RTILA can save to, read from and compare. You can use either Google Sheet as we have a command for it, or Directus/PostgreSQL
Q: RTILA Requesting Extensive Permissions on MacBook – Is This Normal?
I recently started using RTILA on my MacBook and noticed that it's requesting a lot of permissions, including access that requires my system password. Is this expected behavior? I'm a bit concerned about the level of access it's asking for. What are the potential risks of granting these permissions? Could it allow access to my personal files or sensitive data? Would appreciate any insights or experiences from others who have used RTILA.

What are the potential risks of granting these permissions? Could it allow access to my personal files or sensitive data? >>> No risk here. The good thing is that everything stays local in your computer. The only query/data that goes out is the check for your license validity. So any password you save within your automation browser sessions will be saved on your local computer/browser just like it happens with your regular browser like Safari.

A: AndrewM, yes we have but its not working well enough and we will be updating our Make integration once we do a full revamp of our Cloud API, after which we will be able to integrate with Zapier and any other App that uses REST API, which is also the case for Boost.space. That said you can already use our existing API features: Current Cloud Run API Doc: https://rtila.com/docs/rtila-cloud-api-documentation-updated/ Webhook Command: https://rtila.com/docs/webhook-send-request/ Bridge API command: https://rtila.com/docs/api-bridge-get-post-requests/
good question Andrew. RTILA is a Desktop App and uses your local resources to store and process data (except for the license check it has to connect to our server to verify your software license). So all your browsing data, password, files etc are stored on your local computer if you do store them as you can refuse to save passwords etc..
Q: Can it execute without opening browser
Can the execution without the browser showing open ? And also , can it work with api automation ? And api that is not web base?
Can the execution without the browser showing open ? >>> Yes, we have a Silent mode run, see doc here: https://rtila.com/docs/run-automations-in-silent-mode-no-browser-opening/
And also , can it work with api automation ? >>> Yes we have a Cloud RUN/API see doc here: https://rtila.com/docs/rtila-cloud-api-documentation-updated/ But not all project are able to run on the Cloud for security/privacy/session reasons. But we are also working on a paid option for self-hosted Cloud so that you can have your own local RTILA API/Cloud. Otherwise you can install and run RTILA Studion on a cheap Linux or Windows VPS and run your automations 247 for about $10/month for the VPS rental.
And api that is not web base? >>> Yes it is web based, REST API and webhooks
Q: I'm just about to order this but have another query
I have a need to access a site that requires a login.
The login uses captcha and 2fa. It also logs out after 24 hours.
Is there any way to automate the login so I can scrape the data without having to manually log in every 24 hours

Makes sense. Thanks for your quick reply
Q: You have a make integration available, do you also have a Boost.space integration?

Another question. If I have RTILA log in to a website for me. How safe is that login data. Is it all stored locally or processed elsewhere
