issue with activating tab inside a webpage

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi All,

 

I have a issue with some web automation.

On the webpage itself there are tabs made inside the page and need to activate one of these tabs to fill out some fields that are on this tab. If I do it manually I go with my mouse to that tab and left click on it to get it activated.

 

I have mapped the UI element of the tab itself and then tried several things but do not get the tab activated.

I tried click link on web page (with left click) ,not working.

Click button on web page also not working.

Hoover mouse on UI element and then give a left mouse click action and is also not working.

Any idea's that I can try out or is there a issue with the UI element selector ?

    On the click link on a web page action if you click on advanced you will see option to send a physical click you can try this and hopefully this will work
