Power Automate UI Flow Filling in Web Forms with security

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi, 

 

I'm attempting to build a Power Automate UI flow that fills in a simple form on a website. 

The website consists of:

  • A log in page
  • Answering a Security Question (where you must enter 3 random characters from you predefined security answer which must be a minimum 4 characters)
  • A landing page
  • A form (the form in question, that I want the UI flow to be able to fill in) 

 

The UI Flow is able to securely log on to the website (using my credentials) then needs to fill in the answer to the security question. The question requires three characters, which can be any (and in any order) of the "First" "Second" "Third" "Fourth" "Second to last" or "Sixth" character (if it is a 6-character security answer, for example, which mine is not). I cannot find anywhere how you would develop a UI Flow that is able to read the element in the form that defines the character requirement, then enters the corresponding character. 

 

Can anyone help me with this?

 

Thanks for your help,

 

Tom

    Hello,

     

    The definition for the character requirements is just a text label, or textbox? Please take a screen of it or give more details.

     

    However, on a web page, you can use this action: "Get details of element on web page" to get the text / information of an element. Then you have the text you want, from there, you just need to parse the text to find information you need.

    Thanks and hope it can help you.
