Hi @scorpialee ,

Maybe using Regular expression in the selector would work or we could get the id attribute using Get Attribute Activity and Check if it contains any of the words mentioned, then continue the process.

Using Regular Expression :

webctrl id='edu_(phd|ms|ba|se|O)' matching:id='regex' tag='INPUT' type='radio' name='edu' parentid='eduStatus'

@scorpialee
Welcome to the forum

maybe you can share some more details (screenshots / business case) with us

We would assume that all radio buttons are belonging to a group and the flow is about selecting a particular degree.

When regexing to all buttons then we don’t have a selector to a particular radio button as e.g. click needs to find a single element.

When it is about to dynamize it, then have a look here for dynamic selectors

sorry , I want to use Get Attribute Activity , To get which ‘radio button’ is checked,
without use too many If Activity
Is more suggestion?
thanks

use find children activity, set filter = "<webctrl tag='INPUT' type='radio'>"
then loop over the result elements using for each activity
inside the loop use get attribute activity to check if element is checked
