Simple Internet Explorer question

[mark_a_longden]

Firstly, apologies if this is embarrassingly simple and you all report me to my employer for not being able to use Blue Prism properly :) We're obliged to use IE for most of our stuff here, and part of what I need to do is navigate to different pages inside a wider site. Because mapping is not always the easiest system, I thought rather than navigating through the site via the "main page / data / etc." system, I'd just use the URLs and go straight to them. Works fine when doing the job manually, but I'm stumped as to how to do it in Blue Prism. I've made it as far as mapping the address bar, then using a Navigate to click on it, then writing to it, but then...it's refusing to map the little arrow at the far-right of the address bar, and I can't find a way inside BP of doing it (this might just be me, of course). If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it.

Hi Mark - we all need to start somewhere.With web applications it's a different tactic - you don't model the IE window, you model the web app inside IE. When you do that there is a Navigate method where you just give it the URL and BP steers IE to the page automatically.Here you can download a full working example of a web based solution. From memory it doesn't do the navigate thing, but it will give you a good idea of how web integration works https://portal.blueprism.com/learning/lifecycle-orientationThis is another general guide https://portal.blueprism.com/system/files/Browser%20Automation%20Guide.pdf
