## Query parameters
## Live view configuration

The `browser_live_view_url` supports additional query parameters to customize the live view:
Configuring the live view by setting query parameters on your `browser_live_view_url`.

```
https://api.onkernel.com/browser/live?w=1024&h=768&r=60&readOnly=false&jwt=

```

- `w` / `width` (num): sets the width of the VM's screen in pixels.
- `h` / `height` (num): sets the height of the VM's screen in pixels.
- `r` / `rate` (num): sets the live view frame rate in frames per second. The default is 30.
- `r` / `rate` (num): sets the live view framerate in frames per second. The default is 30.
- `readOnly` (bool): when set to `true`, the view will be non-interactive.

### Framerate

By default framerate is set to 30 fps, however, we support framerates between 30 - 60 fps by increments of 10.

## Browser persistence

If you [marked](/launch/browser-persistence) a browser for persistence, `browser_live_view_url` remains active after the invocation ends. It remains active until you [terminate the browser](/launch/browser-termination).
