Web_Scraper_Problem.png

I'm trying to build a process to scrap automatic excel reports from a website. Unfortunately I'm not able to fix the failed to get window error, which occurs when the "Save as" windows appears. I can't click anything in this new window. I tried: browser automation/focus window/click UI elemnt/wait till new window and bring to front/get window  using all this different methods without luck.

 

Error Message: Click failed(failed to get UI Element)

    Can you send screenshots of the window and errors you are getting?

     

    Have you tried various combinations of Send Keys?

    unfortunately send keys didn't work. I used a work around : changed the google settings download to specific folder. Then get files in descending order and then move files....works for me, maybe not the best solution, but eventually it could help someone else.
