    Hi.

     

    Your Original Post doesn't leave much info on what exactly you are having issues with, so if you could explain a little more in detail and maybe provide some pictures of your flow I might be able to help you out 🙂

    If you could post a picture or copy/paste the part of the flow that fails as well as some details on the UI Element you have defined that would be helpful 🙂

    Could you try to go into the UI Elements pane (Right side of PAD program) and press "Add UI Element" and see if it works from there?

    I know that there are some field types in Oracle that you cannot access as they are defined as Tables of Data and not actually Forms. I don't think thats the case here, but just keep that in mind when automating in Oracle.

     

    This might also be required for you:

    I had this kind of issue many times with other .exe and in my experience it could most of the times be solved by :

     

    1. Moving your Oracle window from one screen to the other if you have multiple screens.
    2. Switching your Oracle window from "Full screen" to "Restored" or the other way.

    Be carefull. If this works it will mean that your Flow won't find the field the next time if your window is not on the right screen/status.

    Maybe including a step to set the window in the right position before you manipulate the form would help.

     

    This is not a perfect answer but maybe it can help you for now until someone else explains us why it behaves like that. 😄

    That is a Java application you are trying to automate and those are a bit tricky. Please refer to this article for more info on how to work with them: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/how-to/java
