Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

I am fresh to Power Automate Desktop. I have been trying to create a Bot for one of the function. I am using the action Click link on web page to click and capture a particular hyperlink but it is not clicking that link at all. The same Click link on web page action works as expected in other parts of the workflow.

This is the hyperlink I want PAD to click. It is an Ariba URL.

This is the action

Look in to the element selector and try to figure out if there is some dynamic element or something that changes when the fail happens vs when the flow is able to click the link.

So open the element selector by clicking the edit icon

And try Testing the element when the link is visible in your screen.

Is the page different when the flow fails vs when it succeeds to find the same link? If so the element referencing might change a bit on different page even if the element appears to be the same on the user.

For example if I have captured the link element: "Flows are not visible for users who sign in with their personal accounts" and have the Href attribute on and test the element it works fine.

But if I go on a different thread and test the same element it will fail even though there is that link. And thats because the Href is pointing to this thread and not the one I was testing it the second time when it failed:
