Hi ,
I need assistance in obtaining the URL of a newly opened tab, which is dynamically generated each time.
Scenario : After clicking the 'Ok' button in the current tab, I am redirected to a new tab, but I do not interact with this new tab directly. My aim is to extract the URL of this new tab and save it in a variable for further use within the automation flow. Additionally, I would like guidance on how to interact with elements on this new tab to validate all elements on new tab

below dynamic URL I am getting on new tab once I click OK button from current tab ( ID is dynamic )
https://app.abc.testing.com/ggh/ggg/56108376822956123?merke=ABC

Hi @gauravsolanke ,

Please find the attached solution.
Use the Get details of web page action and set it to variable and make it get the current URL.

Is ID "56108376822956123"? Or is it "ABC"?
If these information are visible on the current tab, you can retrieve the information for the target tab by specifying them as Tab URL options in the "Launch new (browser)" action.

I suggest that you consider using the Extract data from web page action, the Get details of web page action, or the Get details of element on web page action to get the ID.

What @VishnuReddy1997 suggested would only work if you were already attached to the new tab, but that won't work without knowing the URL first. Is the name of the new tab also dynamic? Perhaps you can attach it via using the name? Alternatively, you might be able to build the URL by extracting data from the original tab, as @kinuasa suggested.

I was able to fixed the issue as i used the URL which is not known but I know the some static part of that URL so I put the partail/static part of that URL and this worked.

Thanks Everyone.
