Spying iframe element with browser mode

[lawalabibat]

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to interact with an iframe element on a portal using Browser Mode, but the element is not being identified in any mode except UIA. I initially built the process using UIA, but the response time is very slow, even after optimizing attributes like UI Enabled, ID, and Parent UIA Name.

To improve performance, I’m restarting the build of the process and aiming to use Browser Mode this time. However, the iframe element is still not being recognized. I tried spying a different web element that is detectable via Browser Mode and then modifying attributes to match the required element, but it still doesn’t highlight. The attributes I checked include Web XPath, Page Address, Element Type, Web Name, ID, and Match Index.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue or found a workaround for this? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps others can share their best-practice experience and suggestions for working with iFrames in BPE, but I wanted to share our Knowledge Base documentation on this topic in case you hadn't already reviewed it: "How to interact with iFrame web applications" 

It describes how to work with dynamic attribute values, and includes sample .bpobject and .html files to help demonstrate a known effective approach to identify static attributes to differentiate the elements accurately. Although this uses UIA mode which you stated you did not wish to use due to its performance constraints, it may be the case with some iFrame webapps that this is the only option and browser mode won't be able to spy/identify elements properly.
