Identify Issue In Browser Mode

SimanchalaPatt1 — Thu, 13 Oct 2022 11:13:00 GMT

Hello All,

We are working on a web application where the requirement is to read A SINGLE ELEMENT from a DROPDOWN. With the use of BROWSER MODE, we can able to identify & read the element but in the output we are getting all the values present in the DROPDOWN. So it's getting store in a collection.

FYI: In the normal BROWSER MODE, usually while identifying a wen element, we used to get an OUTER & an INNER element to read. But here we are getting only the OUTER element.

Browser Used : EDGE 106.0
Blue Prism : V6.10.4

Kindly advise. Thanks

Hello Simanchala,

What you can do is the following:

In the read stage, use "Get Selected Items text", the output from this will be a collection.

Your selected value can be read from [YourCollection.Value]

Hello Mats,

Thanks for replying. Is there any other way to get the TEXT values directly instead of storing & reading from a collection?

Well, writing to a text dataitem or to a textdataitem nested in a collection does not make that much of a difference. 🙂
