Solution does not work on different version - Attach

Hi,

I have a UI Automation solution developed for learning purpose using Blue Prism 7.3 and the Edge browser, with the Blue Prism 7.3 browser extension.

The solution works perfectly on another system with the same versions of Blue Prism and the Edge browser extension. However, when I try to run it on a different system with Blue Prism 7.4.1 and the Edge browser extension 7.4.1, it doesn't work as expected.

My solution consists of two objects: one for login and basic operations, and another for specific operations. While running the process, the login object works fine without any issues. However, when the process reaches the steps involving the second object, it fails. It appears that the attach functionality is failing or there is an issue related to it.

Can anyone please suggest a solution or provide assistance?

Thanks,
Dipin Dev P

Hi @DipinDevP,

Please follow the steps below as a resolution:

  1. In the Application Modeller of the second object, ensure that the launch method is set to "My application is already running" during the Application Modeller wizard setup.
  2. Since the first object attaches successfully, review how the attach is being performed in both objects. Is the second object using a different attach method (e.g., “Window Title”, “Process Name”, or “Application ID”)? If so, align the attach criteria with that used in the login object to ensure consistency.
  3. Launch or attach the browser in the first object, retrieve the Browser ID (using an output parameter or data item), and pass it to the second object. Use this same Browser ID for the attach in subsequent objects.
  4. If the above steps do not resolve the issue, consider combining all actions into a single object that launches the Edge browser and performs all required steps.

If this solution helped resolve your issue, kindly mark this response as the best answer.

Have you checked the Application Manager mode to make sure it says embedded?

Thanks @saha1sourav2 @david.l.morris for your suggestions!

Attach is working by changing the Child Index, still I need to figure out how this is happening.

I am facing another issue now. Context is same, but the issue is different - there were elements spied using UIA method in my solution, which is working fine in other machines, but not in the machine that I mentioned in above post. Can anyone please help with possible reasons and solution suggestions.
