I have an 'On Block Error' section that looks for problems when entering text into a WEB form. I assign a variable called 'TransactionStatus' a text description depending on where the failure occurs. If no errors occur I assign the text 'Success' to the 'TransactionStatus' variable. If any failures occur then the 'On Block Error is set to continue the flow run and Go to the end of the block. I then test the TransactionStatus variable and see if it is anything but Success, if so then I run a flow to look for errors on the web page, close the web browser, and then relaunch it. As a test, I pulled my network cable and the browser showed 'No Internet' and text, which included 'ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED'. I am testing if the web page contains using 3 types of errors ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED, ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED, and ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT. The problem is everything is fine until I get to the 'If Web contains' test it doesn't see the text even though it is right there on the page. I suspect the loss of the Internet means the flow fails, is this true? Is there another way to handle a loss of internet or other browser condition that would be fixed by shutting the browser down and ten restarting with the same instance name?
Thanks For Your Help
Power Automate Desktop cannot run offline. You need internet connectivity to run your flows. So, if you lose internet connectivity, your flow will likely fail anyway, or not start at all.
If your browser is closed, or the page does not load, what you've done should work fine.
