Global Send Key not available for a Internet Explorer web application text box

GaneshMurai — Wed, 27 May 2020 20:38:00 GMT

Trying to develop an RPA for a web application.
I have extracted all the data I need to enter into various fields on the web application.
I am able to write the data on various elements of the web application.
However, as I enter data, I want to TAB out.
However, I am not getting the "Global Send Keys" options.
My Blue Prism version is latest 6.7.1

Any help appreciated!

Hi Genesh,

If you are spying with HTML then you won't get Global Send Keys here. What you need to do is to Activate Window, focus on element and then Send Keys to application (in your case it will be Maximo Preview Site element).

Best regards,

Hi Michal,

You were right, it was a simple thing to use tap Alt till I get the UI Automation mode.
I wasn't aware of this earlier, learning something new everyday 🙂

Thanks for your help!
Regards,

Ganesh
