Definition and Usage

The Handle webpage pop-up command checks for pop-ups during web automation and manages them before continuing with actions such as clicks or inputs. This ensures that workflows run smoothly without being interrupted by unexpected pop-ups. You can either close the pop-up automatically or handle it using a custom process.
