Hi @Venkatp,

If your selector is changed everytime you click on a student, I think you need to use dynamic selector to get desired text.

Hi @hindsfeet,

Do you have chrome installed?. In the workflow, the BrowserType is set to Chrome.

There are two instances when I faced this error :

(a) The Browser Chosen in Browser Type isn’t installed on my system
(b) When Browser Type is set to IE, on Windows 7 machine in which I didn’t have admin rights in the system. When I tried using a windows 8/8.1/10 machine I didn’t face this issue.

Hope this helps!

Kudos! :slight_smile:

Thanks,
Nithin Prabhu
