PowerBuilder 2022 Spy Mode

Hi, 

We have a custom in house CMS application built on Power Builder 2021. We have been using Active Accessibility to spy elements.

After upgrading to Power Builder 2022 we can no longer spy large cohorts of elements.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Does UIA mode capture anything Eoin? And what's the difference between 2021 and 2022, has there been a change in bitness, or the underlying technology?

Hi Eoin - this may be connected to the fact that Powerbuilder turns off accessibility by default in the 2022 edition.

Blue Prism's UIA and AA spying is reliant upon accessibility frameworks for automations, so you may be able to restore them by enabling this setting to ACCESSIBILITY=1
