is UiPath CV automation will work ,even the screen is not opend on top of the screen? is it possible to do the CV automation inside the use application browser activity? we can provide the url it will opend by itself and capture the screenshot do some automation,is this possible inside the use application browser activity?
If the screen is not opened or is minimized, the Computer Vision engine cannot see it so CV automation will fail in such cases. And inside Use Application/Browser Activity, you can add CV Screen Scope to do CV-based automation, but the window must remain visible during execution.
So if you need automation without opening the screen, then CV is not the right approach instead, use selectors, API, or headless browser automation.

Thank you for the reply, we can provide the url in use application browser activity even then we need to indicate screen with screen scope activity right. i did like this but when i run the workflow it look like open the link but t not visible and after some time will give runtime error.
When UiPath opens the browser in the background, the CV activities can’t find the screen after timeout, it throws a runtime error. CV is not like selector-based automation, it needs the screen visible similar to image-based automation or you can Maximize the screen in the Use Application/Browser property resize window then set to Maximize
If you want background automation (no screen open) then don’t use CV instead, rely on selectors (UiAutomation activities).

First thing if you can provide the url and if its web app..then why not use nornal selectors?
Cheers
