How do I select the changing id in website

[bilaer]

Currently I am trying to select a ui element in the website with certain words in it. However, I have looked up the html of the website and it seems every time I select this element, it’s id will change. For example, the id of this element may be “x-1234” first time I hit it, but next time when I hit it the id will become “x-2134”. How could I be able to select it every time using selector? Thank you very much !

Hi @bilaer

Kindly replace the number in the id by * in the selector.

Then that will do the trick.

Thanks and regards.

Hi @bilaer,

Take a look here,

Questions on click activity (No need to attach solution or any files, for understanding)

It happens when there’s some change in the web page, So in that case need to use some dynamic selector to work it for every time, Sometimes selector is having “idx” or “cls” attribute and their values are not same everytime, which keep on changing. So try to make a selector without that attribute as sometimes idx value changes with each refresh. This will help you to make your selector dynamic.
