    Do you need to extract the data or click on the image 

    Please explain your scenario clearly

    Hi, I need to click on the image, the image is a link that when clicked opens another web page.

    Use click link on web page activity 

    If it does not work use press button on web page 

     

    Hope this helps

    Thanks, the UI element was not being captured after I selected click link on web page or press button on web page, but when I captured the UI element first it worked correct, but now I am stuck again, after I get the click to work another page opens and that page has dynamic address that is valid only for the current session. On the new window I need to make selections that will populate the prior web page, but I don't know how to select the new page/window.

    You need to use Launch new {Browser} again, but instead of launching a new instance, you need to make it attach to a running instance. You can then use the title of the page, if that's static, since the URL is dynamic.

    When you have attached to it, you will have a new browser instance variable that you can use for further web UI actions.

    That's exactly why you need to use the Launch new {Browser}  action. You need to attach to the new window and create a new browser instance variable. Without doing that, PAD will not be able to interact with a new browser window/tab.

    Thanks, 

    When I create new browser action it requires URL and the URL from new window is too long and the last part changes every time. please see example below.
