problem writting in address bar

[Rodrigo]

Hello everyone!

I am a begginer using Blueprism and this is my first question.

My goal is to write a path in the address bar of this window.

I have already identified this element as shown in the following image

I have a navigate element with the following infotmation

But if I put an Write block

The this error appear

I will be very grateful if someone tells me how to solve this problem.

Regards!

Hi Rodrigo,

Instead of write stage you could use the navigate stage.

Just pass the global send keys to write the path in address bar.

Hi Rodrigo,

Also, you can go with an alternate solution. 

You can write the complete path in the File name and it will save the file at the desired location. Ex - C:\Users\abcde\Documents\Dashboard.xlsx

Ho Rodrigo,

If you're doing a 'Save As', as in your example for an Excel file, I'd advise using the 'Save As' action as available on the BP VBO for the file you are saving, eg Word or Excel.

This way you don't have to map the elements on the 'Save As' panel. The found mapping may even differ between various Windows and Office versions, rendering your object not working as expected. The BP VBO will always work.

Happy coding!
