# Keyboard.press() method
Shortcut for [Keyboard.down()](./puppeteer.keyboard.down.md) and [Keyboard.up()](./puppeteer.keyboard.up.md).
#### Signature:
```typescript
class Keyboard {
press(
key: KeyInput,
options?: {
delay?: number;
text?: string;
commands?: string[];
}
): Promise<void>;
}
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| --------- | --------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| key | [KeyInput](./puppeteer.keyinput.md) | Name of key to press, such as <code>ArrowLeft</code>. See [KeyInput](./puppeteer.keyinput.md) for a list of all key names. |
| options | { delay?: number; text?: string; commands?: string\[\]; } | <i>(Optional)</i> An object of options. Accepts text which, if specified, generates an input event with this text. Accepts delay which, if specified, is the time to wait between <code>keydown</code> and <code>keyup</code> in milliseconds. Defaults to 0. Accepts commands which, if specified, is the commands of keyboard shortcuts, see [Chromium Source Code](https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:third_party/blink/renderer/core/editing/commands/editor_command_names.h) for valid command names. |
**Returns:**
Promise&lt;void&gt;
## Remarks
If `key` is a single character and no modifier keys besides `Shift` are being held down, a `keypress`/`input` event will also generated. The `text` option can be specified to force an input event to be generated.
Modifier keys DO effect [Keyboard.press()](./puppeteer.keyboard.press.md). Holding down `Shift` will type the text in upper case.
