Process too fast to get data items

Hello all,

I am writing an action that will grab five elements from the web browser and append them to a CSV file. Using a Read Stage, I am getting the five elements with "Get Current Value", which stores each element in its own Data Item.

This method works when I press the 'Go' button, even when Debug Speed is set to fast. However, when I run the process from Control Room, all the Data Items are empty after running the process.

I was thinking to try 5 Read Stages (one for each web element) with Wait Stages in between, but wasn't sure if this would make a difference. Is this a good idea or is there another way to go about it?

Hi Gracie - it sounds like the object is not keeping in sync with the app. Try adding a wait stage to confirm that the web page is ready and then do the reading.
