Can I use the “Anchor base” activity (Activities - Anchor Base)?
If so, why don’t I find it when I type “anchor” in the activity search filter? Maybe I need to install a plugin?
If not, what are the differences, in terms of functionality, between this free version and the paid one? Thanks.
Install the package UiPath.UiAutomation.Activities and search for Anchor if you found excel activities at top then downgrade the UiPath.Excel.Activities then try again.
Now in the latest version anchor base is directly combined into the selector itself you can directlt indicate in a normal activity along with the anchor
You don’t need to use separate activity to specifying the anchor element.
For any of the modern activities for click, type, get text etc, when you identify an element, it asks you to indicate the anchor there itself.
If you are using classic activities, either you can consider replacing those with their modern version or you can get the classic activity enabled from activities panel for explicit use.
Try installing the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities package. Once installed, you can find the activity in the Activities panel. If the package is already installed, ensure that Classic Activities are enabled so the activities appear in the panel.
