How to select each line button and click

[SandipRaut (Sandy)]

Hi Team,

How we can click each Detail button of row one by one. please find attachment.

[Bogdan_Coman (Doru Coman)]

Hi Sandip,

How should I do it:

1. Try to get your information as a table
2. Identify the Detail button selector (using UiPath Explorer)
3. Identify another Detail button selector (using UiPath Explorer) and note the common points.
4. You should be able to identify what is the difference between line 1 and line 2.
5. Create a for each row activity (for the table generated at step 1) and click on Detail button using a Dynamic selector that has been generated after you spot the differences.

Hi Bogdan, may i ask how to get the information as table? and if it isn’t possible to parse the line item properly in a table, what are the alternatives? Thank you!

When & How to use Find Children activity

Can anyone tell me where to use Find Children . I m unable to use Find Children. Need to Understand the concepts.

How to get names from the Find Children activity

Hi, I have used “Find Children” activity to get the all the element from dropdown. My question is how do we get all the individual element names from the dropdown. And I need to pass this individual value in the “Select Item” activity. Can any one help me on this. Thanks in advance.

Hi Aksh,
Thanks, I looked through those links but still can’t figure out what to do with the Find Children.
Am i to use UI Explorer to find the code for the table and insert that code into the Filter field?

Sorry to bother, am i able to get a sample for Find Children and For Loop and Click using this scenario: Google for any search term, click on 1 of the link on the result page, then go back to the result page and repeat for 2nd link and so on.

I think this will be super helpful for the rest of us also…

Please…Thanks!

Hi @arivu96 , everyone,

Yes, i have seen the same link, but am facing similar error below. I am wondering if it is because I click on the Google Chrome Back Button that causes the webpage to be re-render thus UiPath is not able to read the elements? Detailed error below and attached. Appreciate any guidance.

Main has thrown an exception

Hi Arivu, yea it is not work. I’m trying to use the open new tab method. It is working ok but I can’t seem to make the 2nd tab active to extract data from it… I think the main reason is that the main attach browser activity is outside so i’ll need a way to record browser variable for 2nd, 3rd, 4th tab and so on and make it active somehow…as mentioned in this thread: How to close tab if a more than one tab is present in internet explorer - #7 by arivu96

But thanks anyway!
