Has anyone got puppeteer working on netlify node 18?

hello! has anyone had any luck getting puppeteer working in netlify functions?

I’ve tried every possible combination of puppeteer, puppeteer-min, @sparticuz/chromium-min, chrome-aws-lambda and @sparticuz/chromium on many different versions but I always get errors when I deploy (works fine locally with netlify dev) from ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE to browser closed! to libssl errors

any working versions/combinations would be much appreciated!

Mind sharing a minimal reproduction so we can check?

As this thread showed up first when trying to solve my puppeteer problems, I would like to point out that there’s a netlify plugin now that installs Chromium and automatically adds an environment variable that you can then use to specify the executable path. The plugin is found here: Chromium | Netlify Integrations
