    Open advanced settings in populate and apply the below changes:

     

    1. If field isn't empty - Change from default value to "Replace text"

     

    2. Populate text using physical keystrokes - 

     

    Try with Enable this toggle button

     

    If not working again then disable it and try.

    After tried the above approach, If you still facing any issues, allow your PAD to open notepad to type the text, then ctrl+A, ctrl+C, ALT+F4, and then after open your web page allow PAD to send the keys ctrl+V.

    Hi @And9612 ,

     

    Is it a Captch. If its a Captch Unfortunately, directly reading and solving Captcha verification using Power Automate Desktop (PAD) isn't possible or recommended due to the evolving nature of Captchas and security concerns.

     

    You need to keep a manual intrevention at that point.

    You can also try with website developer team to eleiminate captch.

     

    You can extract it using OCR but i have doubt while pasting,just try manually taking or copying that number and pasting that number in captch box does it work let me know.

     

    If it work try that with send key action.

    with ocr i solve the problem, i use an application to extract the ocr numbers, but the main problem is when it copy the number and paste in that box even with that toggle button of Populate text field using Physical keystrokes do not fill there.
