Convert workflow from one browser to another

Hey UiPath Community,

I have previously developed a UiPath workflow on the Chrome browser. Now I want to run the same workflow but on Firefox. I just wanted to know that is it possible to do that without modifying each activity in the workflow. (As both browsers are different)

Any help will highly be appreciated.

Best regards,
Muhammad Anas.

One of more options

You can have a look at the Browser Migration Tool provided by UiPath
it will help to do a conversion. Surely, testing and manual postediting is recommended

Change the selectors of all ui element activities to
SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

app='firefox.exe'

And check other properties in the selector

Hi @Muhammad_Anas_Baloch,

You could potentially mass replace any instance of app='chrome.exe' with app='firefox.exe' inside a notepad file.

Right click on your xaml file, and then open with Notepad/Notepad++.

Open the Find and Replace function, enter the appropriate terms in the Find/Replace fields and then click Replace All.

Unfortunately this won’t guarantee that all your selectors will work, but this is less time consuming than opening every selector and changing the app and then repairing the selector.

I didn’t realize such a tool existed, so earlier this week I created an Edge version from an IE project, and then created it for Chrome and Firefox. I definitely tried using it this time.
