Hi,
 
I have set a web automation flow for an ads platform. My URL is dynamic and it changes every time I refresh or start a new tab. This affects my 'click on web page' which has to be updated with the new url everytime the flow is re-run and I have to update those UI elements in every steps. 
 
Is there a way for me to fix this through additional logic or steps?
 
Pls help.

    Open the UI element selector builder:

    Then figure out which attributes are dynamically changing and toggle those off. Like in this example "Id" -attribute is dynamic and changes every refresh:


    So I toggle that off and select two other attributes to find the exact ui element which is fourth "Download SAMPLE XLS FILE". Ordinal = 3 is the same as fourth row since the index starts at 0.

    Remember to test the elements with the Test button when you have the element in your screen. Then refresh the browser and test again to see that it works with new refreshes.

    You can use variable too

    With Ordinal or any attribute that is numeric you have to toggle on Text editor.


    If you need more help please share screenshots of your flow and explain where the error happens.
