Copy link

If you need clipboard write, add this to your rails helper:

  config.before(type: :system, enable_clipboard_write: true) do
    # In case the permission name changes, check the following link for the new name:
    # https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol/tot/Browser/#type-PermissionType
    page
      .driver
      .browser
      .execute_cdp(
        "Browser.grantPermissions",
        origin: page.server_url,
        permissions: ["clipboardSanitizedWrite"]
      )
  end
