I was trying to follow this course for RPA Windows Automation: https://academy.appian.com/#/online-courses/b08d47ca-0cac-42a4-803d-7384e0127dc4
The course stated to select the Element Selector to Name instead of Automation ID in Interact Element Action, and select the parameterized variables they told to create for the Element Selector Name. The problem is this doesn't work on my end. When I switch the Element Selector to Name and select the parameterized variable, the bot is unable to find the element as shown here:
However, when I deselect the Parameter checkbox in the variables, I was able to proceed with the Action, but the value of the clicked number in the calculator doesn't save in the variables:

Hello,
In order to save the value of the number in the calculator, you would need to use a "Get Attribute" action and specify the target variable in the "Outputs". The "Interact with element" action doers not save any values into the variables.
