# Keyboard.sendCharacter() method
Dispatches a `keypress` and `input` event. This does not send a `keydown` or `keyup` event.
**Signature:**
```typescript
class Keyboard {
sendCharacter(char: string): Promise<void>;
}
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| --------- | ------ | -------------------------------- |
| char | string | Character to send into the page. |
**Returns:**
Promise&lt;void&gt;
## Remarks
Modifier keys DO NOT effect [Keyboard.sendCharacter](./puppeteer.keyboard.sendcharacter.md). Holding down `Shift` will not type the text in upper case.
## Example
```ts
page.keyboard.sendCharacter('嗨');
```
