Hi,
Using "click UI element in Window" (or "Populate text filled in window") command, I was trying to log into QAD.
However, i cannot select login box, as it the box is not recognised in RPA.
Is there any workarounds for this?
Hi @dogbural82
Have you tried with webpage actions ?
Hi @dogbural82 ,
As a last step option: you can use Send Keys and use the {Tab} to help you move between difficult to select fields. I only use it when there are issues that prevent perfect performance, but it does work well. Go to the login screen and press then tab key a few times and watch the cursor move through the fields; it is a nice work around.
I do see this occasionally where for whatever reason the PW field is next to impossible to select but I have successfully entered my userID. Send Keys {Tab} is the easy button.
Having said that, you will find a lot of people tell you never to do this. I'm not exactly sure why since it is an effective solution and is a Microsoft provided function within Power Automate Desktop. It comes down to personal perference.
