How to check if SSRS report is ready in IE

Help Studio
1

Hi all,

I would like to know how I can check if a report from MS SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 (SSRS) is ready in ReportViewer after clicking a button to open it.

My steps are
STEP 1. Open a site with Internet Explorer
STEP 2. Click a button to open a report created by MS SSRS
It may take some time to create the report depending on the size of the data.
STEP 3. Once it’s ready, I would like to export it as PDF.

After clikc a button to open the report, I tried two. But they didn’t work.

  1. Element Exists in Do while
    If Element ‘Export option’ in SSRS header is not ready, wait 3 sec and check again.
    But the result was always false even the report was ready.

  2. Delay 3 sec, and select ‘Export option’
    UiPath could not find ‘Export option’ element.
    Selector Editor can validate the element and Highlight it.

If you have any advice, that would be very helpful.

Regards,

Tosh
