Question

Regarding Interacting with the browser page

Greetings,

I am a starter in Appian RPA and I got stuck in a small place where I am unable to interact with the browser component.

The Problem is as follows:

My primary objective is to open a website i.e https://zoom.us/signin using the " Open Browser method " under the browser module.

Entering Username and password in that website using " Interact with element " method  under browser module

Press the sign-in button --- where the problem occurred.

In order to press the button, we need to know the name of the element and I am unable to find any name on the inspect page. To try with the tag name I have tried by giving the name of the div in which the button places but yet not working.

The common issue that I am getting is "Unable to interact with the element because the component is currently hidden or disabled "

I have also tried pressing enter shortcut but I got ERROR:401.

SO I am kindly requesting you to help me out in this scenario where the name of the component does not exist, what do we have to do?

Make sure to check the box, "scroll to element' which helps the bot find hidden page elements. A few other solutions are to use 'Press keyboard shortcuts' and tab over to the sign-in button and then press enter.

Hi,

You can try task recorder available in Appian RPA for web based ui to fetch the correct selectors.
