Create Feishu Document Automation

Create Feishu Document Automation

Purpose

Automate the process of creating new documents in Feishu (Lark) workspace by using browser automation to navigate the UI, authenticate, and create documents with specified titles and content.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

• User asks to create a new document in Feishu
• User wants to automate document creation in their Feishu workspace
• User needs to quickly create documents without manual UI interaction

Prerequisites

• Access to Feishu workspace (https://leiniao-ibg.feishu.cn)
• Valid authentication credentials for the workspace
• Browser automation capability via agent-browser

Workflow

Step 1: Load Browser Automation Skill

Load the office:agent-browser skill using the Skill tool to access browser automation commands.

Step 2: Navigate to Feishu Drive

Open the Feishu Drive homepage:

agent-browser open https://leiniao-ibg.feishu.cn/​drive/​home/

Wait for page to load:

agent-browser wait --load networkidle

Step 3: Verify Authentication

Take a snapshot to check if already logged in:

agent-browser snapshot -i

If login is required, wait for user to complete authentication manually or handle authentication flow based on the page state.

Step 4: Create New Document

Click the "新建" (New) button (use snapshot to locate the element ref):

agent-browser snapshot -i
# Locate "新建" button ref (e.g., @e1)
agent-browser click @e1

Wait for dropdown menu to appear:

agent-browser wait 1000

Take another snapshot to locate the "文档" (Doc) option:

agent-browser snapshot -i
# Locate "文档" button ref (e.g., @e2)
agent-browser click @e2

Step 5: Select New Document Type

Click the "新建空白文档" (New Doc) option from the submenu:

agent-browser wait 1000
agent-browser snapshot -i
# Locate "新建空白文档" button ref (e.g., @e3)
agent-browser click @e3

Step 6: Wait for New Tab

Wait for the new document to open in a new tab:

agent-browser wait --load networkidle

Check tabs to ensure new document page opened:

agent-browser tab

If multiple tabs exist, switch to the newest tab (usually the last one):

agent-browser tab 2  # Adjust index based on tab list

Step 7: Enter Document Title

The page should automatically focus on the title input field. If the title field is focused by default, type the title directly:

agent-browser type @e1 "Document Title Here"

If not automatically focused, take a snapshot to locate the title input:

agent-browser snapshot -i
# Locate title input ref (e.g., @e1)
agent-browser fill @e1 "Document Title Here"

Step 8: Enter Document Content

Press Tab or click to move to the content area:

agent-browser press Tab

Or locate and click the content editor:

agent-browser snapshot -i
# Locate content editor ref (e.g., @e2)
agent-browser click @e2

Type the document content:

agent-browser type @e2 "Document content goes here..."

For multi-line content, use newlines in the input:

agent-browser type @e2 "First paragraph

Second paragraph

Third paragraph"

Step 9: Verify and Save

Take a final screenshot to verify the document was created successfully:

agent-browser screenshot

Feishu documents auto-save, so no explicit save action is required. The document is now ready to use.

Step 10: Close Browser (Optional)

Close the browser session when done:

agent-browser close

Error Handling

Authentication Issues

If authentication fails or login is required:

1. Pause the workflow
2. Inform the user that manual login is needed
3. Wait for confirmation before proceeding
4. Resume workflow after authentication

Element Not Found

If snapshot cannot locate expected UI elements (button refs):

1. Take a full snapshot without -i flag for debugging
2. Check if UI has changed or language settings differ
3. Use semantic locators as fallback:

   agent-browser find text "新建" click  # Find "新建" (New) button
   agent-browser find text "文档" click  # Find "文档" (Doc) button
   agent-browser find text "新建空白文档" click  # Find "新建空白文档" (New Doc) button
   

Timeout Issues

If page loading takes too long:

1. Increase wait timeout: agent-browser wait --load networkidle --timeout 10000
2. Check network connectivity
3. Verify Feishu service availability

Customization

Different Workspace

To use with a different Feishu workspace, replace the URL in Step 2:

agent-browser open https://your-workspace.feishu.cn/​drive/​home/

Document Templates

To use a specific document template instead of blank document:

1. Navigate to template gallery after clicking "Doc"
2. Locate and click the desired template
3. Proceed with title and content entry

Best Practices

1. Session Reuse: For multiple document creations, keep the browser session open and reuse authentication state
2. Error Screenshots: Take screenshots at each critical step for debugging
3. Wait for UI: Always wait for network idle after navigation to ensure UI elements are loaded
4. Explicit Waits: Use explicit waits (e.g., agent-browser wait 1000) after clicking dropdown menus
