Hi,
I have created my own custom xpath in chrome browser automation everything working fine but in wait stage, if i wait for element it always condition is true even particular element not present in webpage.
in Application Moduler i have selected only Path/XPath attribute.
Example Xpath : //div[text()='Log In']
Blueprism 6.10.1
Q : Why wait stage condition is always true even if element is not present in webpage when i use custom XPath.

Hi Naveen - it's bug that will be fixed in the next release. The workaround is to tick one other attribute (such as Web Element Type) in addition to the xpath attribute. I don't know why that fixes it, I found it through experimentation when I had the same problem as you.

Hello ,
Web element Type need to used along with Web Path only before version 6.9. Fixed as bug in 6.9 Thanks for sharing that bug still persist in 6.10.1 as well.
