If UI element exists - dynamic URL

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by lazy 20

I am checking for the existence of an element on a webpage based on a dynamic URL.

In the flow I have manually navigated to a page on which the element exists so that I can select it as a UI element.

However, the URL of that specific page is also being captured by the selector which, I think, is making the test fail on other pages which do not have the same URL.

I am on theright path or not?

Any help would be appreciated

    If you need the URL then add a variable to the selector for the changing part: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/ui-elements#element-types

     

    If you are referring to the container/name of the selector, this doesn't matter.
