How to automate downloading different number of videos on each pop up page?

Hi there,

I’m relatively new to automation and could really use some guidance on a task I’m working on. Despite scouring the web, I haven’t been able to find a solution to my specific problem.

Here’s the situation:

  1. Task Overview: I have a list of names on a website.
  2. Process:

  • For each name, I need to click on it, which opens a pop-up page.

  • On this pop-up page, there are videos. To download them, I typically have to wait until the video finishes playing, at which point a download button appears. However, I’ve installed the Chrono extension, which allows me to download videos with a right-click, eliminating the need to wait.

  • Each name may have a different number of videos associated with it.

  • I want to create a folder for each person’s name and save the corresponding videos into these folders. (I managed to create a loop for creating different folder for each person and the folder’s name is the name of the person)

Could someone assist me in automating this process? From what I gather, I need to:

  • Identify and click on each name on the website.
  • Detect and download the videos without waiting for them to finish on the popup page that appears.
  • Organize the downloaded videos into folders named after each person.

I anticipate having to repeat this process for around 100 people.

I am attaching an example pop up page when I click a name.
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

@mou1,

Welcome to the UiPath Community :tada:

It’s a pretty much big use case to develop. Any specific error you are facing in any step?

Thanks,

Did you try for each ui element it would repeat same task for similar kind of ui elements

So indicate one video and inside that do the right click and save those would be repeated for all videos

I already explain in detain in my main post, I posted a ss as well, what you are saying does not help. I already know that I need to find video element and I am asking how to find video element, you are saying " you need to video element".

@mou1

drag a use application/browser…you will find indicate …indicate the window

then inside that drag for each ui element you will find one more indicate on screen and click and indicate video
