Device Automation - Finding a specific text

Hi,

I am building a robot using Kapow version 10.3.0.6.

The robot needs to log in to a system using Device Automation, where I wan't to extract a specific value.
Normally in other systems I am able to extract a value by right clicking on the field I wan't to extract, or by finding the location in the code below.
In this system, the order of the values and the ID's (TD values in the code) varies.

I was hoping I could use a "For Each Loop" (over the whole of the area I am searching for the specific value) and a "Element Selector" where I search for the specific value, but I can't make it work.

Have anyone had the same problem, and did you find a solution?

Kind regards,
Jacob

Hi Jacob,

Is the text you are looking for static? if so -
You can achieve this by looping and assigning the attribute value to a variable each loop, then you would run a conditional step to check if the this variable. I have achieved this by using the contains method, example below. From here you would do something like place the following steps inside the conditional step.




Hopefully this helps.

Regards.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply
Sadly the text I am looking for isn't static, but after a lot of trial and errors, I managed to get the right result:

Component formel:
pane[automationId="pnlSearch"]>pane:nth-of-type(3)>edit[automationId="dateMaskedTextBox"]
 
Where the selector is looking for the 3rd of a specific type, in a specific place in the tree.
