How to make selecting a value from drop-down faster

[harmeet_kaur]

Hi All,
I automated a flow where I have drop down buttons It is very slow to execute. I am using two click activities for each drop-down to select an item. I tried to use type into and select item activities, but it was not working. Can someone please tell me a way to make it faster.
Thanks

Hi Team, Attached work contains various ways to select drop down list. In case any other methods to select drop you can add the same and link the workflow to the same thread.,DropDownSelectItem.xaml (17.7 KB) project.json (239 Bytes) FindChildrenActivityRD.xaml (9.4 KB) SelectDropDownTypeInto.xaml (10.0 KB)

Is it working ? If yes how much time it’s taking to select the item ?

have you tried using type into, then selecting another element? sometimes this will trigger the change in the dropdown

if its a web drop down you can use javascript to select the value (use inject JS activity)
