  waitForNavigation(options?: {
    timeout?: number;
    waitUntil?: PuppeteerLifeCycleEvent | PuppeteerLifeCycleEvent[];
  }): Promise<HTTPResponse | null>;
}

Parameters​

ParameterTypeDescription
options{ timeout?: number; waitUntil?: PuppeteerLifeCycleEvent | PuppeteerLifeCycleEvent[]; }(Optional) options to configure when the navigation is consided finished.

Returns:

Promise<HTTPResponse | null>

a promise that resolves when the frame navigates to a new URL.

Remarks​

This resolves when the frame navigates to a new URL. It is useful for when you run code which will indirectly cause the frame to navigate. Consider this example:

const [response] = await Promise.all([
  // The navigation promise resolves after navigation has finished
  frame.waitForNavigation(),
  // Clicking the link will indirectly cause a navigation
  frame.click('a.my-link'),
]);

Usage of the History API to change the URL is considered a navigation.
