There is a scenario in which I have to select the text by clicking and dragging the paragraph,
so I am using the ctrl+shift+down arrow key which needs to be clicked for 10 seconds.

Like in this picture, I want to copy the whole paragraph by clicking and dragging it to the end using shortcut keys.
I tried @Yoichi 's approach but didn’t get a proper response from the Bot,
This image shows a sequence of automation steps including a "Type Into" action, a 10-second delay, and another "Type Into" action with secured inputs, likely used in an RPA (Robotic Process Automation) software. (Captioned by AI)

but the Bot didn’t work properly. Is there any other approach?
I want the bot to keep pressing and holding the ctrl+shift+down arrow key for up to 10 seconds

@Akarshan_Sonkar,

Why to over complicate it. Use Get Text activity here.
