Discriminate text with OCR

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
I have a flow where I enter a location into a field in a web form and this brings up a drop-down menu of locations that I need to select from. The text to be entered is dynamic. Right now, I am using OCR to click on the item that corresponds to the text that was entered. The problem is when there are two similarly named locations in the dropdown - for example, if I enter the text "New York, NY", and the options "123 Main St, New York, NY" and then "New York, NY" appear in the dropdown, it will always click on the first option on the screen, but I'm wondering if there is a way to get it to select the match that doesn't have the other text in front of the search text. Of course, I understand that it's finding the first match for the text I entered, but I'm wondering if anyone has a work around for this scenario.
 
Thanks!
