Something similar like the picture, but not in the whole web browser, only inside a DIV element

    Hi @FlashDota 

     

    You may need to try in two steps as shown below

    First indicate the div element in UI Element field of above action and select required browser instance and then set the Attribute field as Own Text. The output of above action Attribute value will contain the text present in that UI Element, After getting the value/Attribute value, use a if condition to check whether the AttributeValue equals to desired text value and continue accordingly 🙂
