Hi Experts!

I am trying to automate my attendance, leaves, and overtime in our company website. My flow runs like this: Launch Microsoft Edge > Go to web page > Wait > Populate text field on web page. However, I get blank in parameter text box after I perform 'Add UI element'>'Ctrl + Left Click'>'Done' but the UI elements was recorded when I look into UI element tab.

It appears <input:password> 'txtPassword'

<input:password> 'txtPassword1'

<input:password> 'txtPassword2'

and so on and so forth without filling the text box parameter.

What seems to be the problem? How can I fix this?

Hi @wibblerubbler
Try using 'Populate text field in window' action instead of 'Populate text field on web page'.

Yasunm is correct, anytime you know a UI element has recorded, but you can't find it in the web version of a command, try the Windows UI version of the command.

Vice-versa, if you are trying the Windows version of the command and can't find it, then try the web version.
