I am using web form filling to populate a web form, element extract is below:
<input aria-invalid="true" aria-describedby="newName-field-error" class="icon-input__input error" data-semantic="name" id="newName" type="text" value="">
The element has been selected correctly, when I use "Populate text field on web page", I can see that the input field is updated with the correct text, however, using developer tools in Edge, the value property of the input field does not change, it remains blank. I have tried with both "emulate typing" both on and off, "If field isn't empty" replace text and append text. No setting has any effect.
I have tried using "Click link on web page" and clicking on the same input element before the "Populate" step and also after the "Populate" step, this has no effect.
If I use the WAD Web Capture, again the same behaviour occurs. The input field populates, but the value property does not update and then when I click on the submit button, the page assumes all the input fields are blank.
When debugging, if I break the Flow after the fields have been populated, the web page will only recognise the text if I alter a character. eg: if I click in the input field and delete the last letter, the "value" property then becomes populated with the text in the input field.
edit:
I also notice that when the Power Automate extension sends an event, the event is marked as untrusted, compared to a keystroke from the user marks the event as trusted. Is there a way to force Power Automate send trusted events?
