Hi Pranav,

Sometimes depending on how the underlying application/web page has been built it may not register a standard Blue Prism "click". I have seen this kind of behaviour more often with an application not registering text being entered into an input field but also see it sometimes when clicking icons or buttons.

A few things to look into just off the top of my head:
  • try changing the element type in Application Modeller and see if that gives you any different options for interacting with the element and if they have any more success
    • e.g. I have changed an element from a "standard" checkbox to a ".NET" checkbox before and found that allowed certain actions to work
  • try modelling the element using AA or UIA mode and test the interaction/click methods available there
  • use a global click action
    • make sure to Activate Application and Focus the element first of course
  • are there any keyboard shortcut options available you could make use of?

Hope that helps.

Regards,
Jared
