Hi Team,

I am working on an automation requirement where the power automate desktop client is installed in an local pc and it has to rdp a server/ machine, and it works until this point after that when i try to control or move mouse within RDP it does not seem to work within rdp it is recognizing everything as an image and not as an element or object or anything when i move a mouse over google chrome inside RDP and click on it it says move mouse on image1 and each such action is captured as image and when the flow is run again, it just says image not found i have tried both recording and capturing the individual image but nothing seems to work can someone please let me know if PAD does control RDP or this cant be achieved at all

Thanks

Shruthi

@shruthik The recorder switches automatically to image recording mode when a Citrix or Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) window is detected.

For reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/recording-flow
