Chrome UI mode selecting whole screen

[EstebanMontesi1]

I need to use chrome UI Spying mode however it is selecting the whole browser screen instead of specific elements the only mode that's currently working is browser mode however I need to use UI mode since sending keys on the browser spying mode is not working can someone advice.

Note: I do have the blue prism extension for chrome and I'm running its latest version.

Hi,

You might want to try adding command line parameter :

When I do this I get a chrome response of  404 page not found error

Are you using BP 6.7.x or BP 6.8 ?

IF so, you might want to add "" to embed the address field

Hi Esteban

Send Keys should be sent to the root element (i.e. the application) rather than individual elements that have been spied - regardless of spy mode. See p2 of the attached guide:

https://portal.blueprism.com/system/files/2018-02/Guide%20to%20Send%20Keys%20and%20Send%20Key%20Events.pdf

If UIA is not identifying the individual elements, I would recommend using region mode to position the cursor accordingly and then send keys to the application to input the text.

Hope this helps

Tim
