Running FLOW on another device with UI elements

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by RichRicky 9

I created a FLOW that contains clicks of UI elements within a Chrome browser.

I made it on my notebook and it works perfectly and I wanted to run it on my desktop computer but then it indicates an error when using the UI elements.

 

Can I make FLOW so that the use of UI elements works on all devices?

    Hello @RichRicky 

     

    No matter which environment the flow is running, UI elements (selectors) would work as the same, in theory.

     

    Exactly what error messages are you seeing?

    Did you check if the version of PAD software and Chrome web browser is the same in both machine?

    Also are you using the same user account to access to PAD flows? Or recreated the flow using Copy & Paste method?

     

    Thank you.
