Hi,
- Mouse Click:
- Human-like Interaction: Mouse Click activities simulate actual mouse interactions on the screen, including moving the mouse cursor to the target element and clicking it.
- Use Cases: Mouse Click activities are used when you need to interact with elements in a way that replicates manual user actions, such as clicking on a web page, a desktop application, or any GUI element.
- Application Click:
- Native Interaction: Application Click activities interact directly with the application’s user interface at the application level, bypassing the need for simulating mouse movements and clicks. This means they are more efficient and can be faster than Mouse Click activities.
- Use Cases: Application Click is typically used when automating interactions with desktop applications, such as clicking buttons, menu items, or other UI elements within the application. It is particularly useful when you want to ensure your automation works reliably even if the application’s window is minimized or not in focus.
Hi
The main difference between application click and mouse click is that application click simulates a click on an application’s UI element, while mouse click simulates a click on the screen at a specific location.
Each has its own parameters in the UI Baeed activities
The application activity takes the following parameters:
Target:
The UI element to click on. This can be specified by its selector, or by using a UiElement variable that refers to the element.
ClickType:
The type of click to perform. The options are Single, Double, and Down.
MouseButton:
The mouse button to use. The options are Left, Right, and Middle.
For example, you could use the activity to click on a button to open a dialog box, or to click on a link to navigate to a web page, with application click property
Now on Mouse click
The Mouse Click activity in UiPath is used to simulate a click on the screen at a specific location. The activity takes the following parameters:
X: The x-coordinate of the click location.
Y: The y-coordinate of the click location.
MouseButton: The mouse button to use. The options are Left, Right, and Middle.
The Mouse Click activity is useful for automating tasks that require clicking on a specific location on the screen, regardless of the UI elements that are present at that location. For example, you could use the activity to click on a specific pixel on an image, or to click on a specific point on a map.

Hello @anjani_priya
- “Mouse Click” is used for interactions at the system level, such as clicking on the desktop.
- “Application Click” is used for interactions within a specific application’s user interface, like clicking buttons or filling in forms within that application.
Thanks & Cheers!!!
