Dynamic Selector causing Timeout

Help
1

I have a Find Element activity with a dynamic selector:
Once the element is found I click that using Click activity.

This works at times but leads to Activity Timeout exceeded error. I haven’t mentioned Timeout property.

Is there any other approach to handle dynamic clicking?

Thanks in advance!

Hi
I hope it’s a selector issue
Is that element inside any window or browser
If so kindly use find element within Attach browser or Attach window activity and try once

Do you check if it exists or not?

Try logging the dynamic selector and using UiExplorer

Yes it is part of a popup window that shows a grid of items and I am trying to click one of the rows dynamically.
And yes I am using Find element within Attach Browser activity.

Then we need to use attach window because attach browser will take the whole browser screen as a element and not the pop up that comes to foreground

the window is actually a browser dialog frame. I tried finding the dynamic element within this dialog scope but no change in the output. It still takes a lot of time to find and click.

What do you have in the properties for Find Element?

i.e. WaitForReady and also the options (WaitActive / WaitVisible)

Fine
In Find element activity make sure that Waitforready property is set as COMPLETE

So is it clicking finally
