How to split one object into few objects

PatrykLiberski — Thu, 18 Jul 2019 09:25:00 GMT

Hello, I'm using Blueprism and I have to create a robot for a web application. So far I've had all of my subpages spied in one object, but now I must split that object into 5 different objects, each object for one subpage for example :
Now I got this : Web App - Object and I must split it into
Web App - Login Page
Web App - Main Page
Web App - Settings Page etc.

Everything worked when I had just one object but now it's not.
I spied elements again for my new objects in my application modeler.
Also I tried the "Sharable option" and of course published all of my pages.

For example my Web App - Main Page action cannot be used by my Settings Page. I can choose it from the list but then I get this error :

Internal : Failed To perform Step 1 In Navigate Stage 'Click' on page 'click' - Not Connected

What should I do and what should I write in application modeler when I'm asked for the URL of my start page? I've tried the main url for example web.com, my subpages url : web.com/main and also I tried to leave it blank.

Please help me to solve this problem

Do you have an attach page in all of the objects? Unless you use the shareable option, you need to attach to the app with each of the objects individually.

Hi,

I agree with David on adding Attach Page to each object.
"Not Connected" message suggests that you need to launch the application or attach to the application which is already running.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your answer. I tried it but then it is not possible to attach.
Also I need to provide in application modeler an URL for the rest of the objects and which URL should it be? the main object contains the main url for example web.com, so the login object should containg web.com/login and the settings object web.com/settings?

Hi,

Generally Speaking, the main object which launches the application should have the URL for launch.
On the other hand, the subsequent objects which attach the application already running don't use the URL for attachment.
The subsequent objects might use the URLs to navigate to other screens, but don't use the URLs to attach the application anyway.

What conditions do you use to attach the application? Such as Window Title?

Hi,

Is this application launched by the main object already?
Can you show me the Navigate Stage for attachment?

Okay.

Do you have multiple screens shown at the same time?
Otherwise, you need to specify only "Process Name".
If Yes, why don't you use wildcard in the value of Window Title, like "*swq.symphonyhp.com*"?

Patryk - It's great you got it working! When you did the split, how was that done? Did you copy/paste from one studio to the other?

Or did you save the Object and Rename it, then delete the pages not needed?

I've noticed that when attaching to Internet Explorer with Window Titles you have to add " - Internet Explorer" to the end of the parameter for it to work, otherwise using wildcard usually works as @Tetsuji Junicho suggested.
