PAD Web Automation: click on specific button according with div referrence

Posted on by LeandroCampacci

Hi everyone, I have a flow in PAD that automates a web page by clicking the "Pagar" (pay) button.

However, this page may display one or more "Pagar" buttons, and what I need is for the click to occur specifically on the button in the "Mensalidade" div according to what I specify or the largest.

For example: below we have "Mensalidade 04" then the click must occur on the respective button ignoring "Mensalidade 02" and "Mensalidade 03":

In this case below, we have only "Mensalidade 04" visible, then the click will occur on the button of that div:

If I just capture the screen element via the PAD, it will "lock" a specific button. How can I tell him to use the "Mensalidade 04" parameter as a reference?

You will need to extract all of the "Mensalide" values into a list. You can use Extract data from web page to do that. Then find the sequential index for the one you need inside the list, by looping through it. Or, if it is always ordered in ascending order, you can simply use the count of values by getting %DataFromWebPage.RowsCount% to get the last item.

You will then need to use the index as a variable in the selector for your button. I suggest capturing a couple of instances of the button in different rows, to see how they differ. Then modify the selector to make it dynamic according to the row index.

See here for more reference on how to customize selectors: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/build-custom-selectors#use-variables-in-a-custom-selector
