ComboBox SELECT item not working correctly

Hello guys. I have a combo box, that I need to choose a specific word that it is in a variable. The Select Item activity selects it, but the thing is, that when I manually select the right thing, the page refreshes, but when Select Activity does it, it doesnt refresh the table. The ComboBox holds a list of warehouses that I can choose to work with.

Hi @Povilas_Jonikas

Instead of using select item activity. Use click activities.

→ Use the click activity to click on the field to dropdown the options.
→ After click use the for each ui element activity to extract the dropdown option Ui elements.
→ Inside for each insert the If condition to check ui element value with variable value.
→ Inside If condition insert click activity and pass the EachElement in input element option in the properties of this click activity.

I think this works for sure, because when you are doing it was working with clicks only.

Hope it helps!!

Hi @Povilas_Jonikas

This could be due to the specific implementation of the website’s JavaScript or event handling.

You can use two click activity instead if Select Item Activity:
1 Click: Combo Box
2 Click: Any Dropdown Value (Pass your variable in this Selector)

Hope it helps you to understand better :slight_smile:
Cheers!!

Thanks for the answer @mkankatala , but the thing is , that I cant indicate the dropdown options. I tried to do it in a different way. Click for the dropdown to expand → Find text (the text in a variable). But I cant indicate the dropdown list anyhow i try. Also, Tried using Computer Vision, but it bugs out on me and the needed window gets sent to backgroud, then the robot doesnt find the Ui elements. (Im working in a private app)

the dropdown options are not supporting to capture… @Povilas_Jonikas

Try to indicate the options by hitting on F2 this will give 5 seconds time to indicate.

can you share with us details (screenshots, element structures and attributes) thanks
