Hi All

 

I have a link that is not going through using either the recorder or UI element. I'm trying PAD to click on the  Link.pngGrid View link (Attached screenshot)

 

I tried recording and clicking the link on the web page. Also attached is an error in the screenshot.

    Hi Phil

     

    Thank you. Both options worked.

    Hi @satishkurra3207 

     

    The flow is failing because it can't find the ID of the element.  It's likely changed since you created the flow.  

     

    Try using Move mouse to image and select the image/icon beside the text Grid View.  In my example image below I'm moving the mouse to a play icon, then sending a left click.

    move-to-image.png

     

     

    Failing that, try using Move mouse to txt on screen (OCR)  and setting the Text to find to Grid View
