How to verify if a type into works with retry scope

Hello Friend,

I’m Trying to Type into a string and controle it content, what is the best approche, how to use retry scope in this case? what will be the out condition?

1-Type into “Field1”
2 get Text from “Field1”
3 condition ?

hi @abdel

use this condition

gettextoutputvariable<>(“”)

<> meaning is notequals

@abdel

Retry Scope:
Max Retries: 3
Retry Interval: 1000---->“1000” into the Retry intervel

Type into "Field1"
Get Text from "Field1"

in retry scope Condition:
Check if the retrieved text matches an expected value

Exit the Retry Scope

https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/workflow/retry-scope

please check this

In an If activity…

NOT typeIntoValue = getTextValue

This is basic, very very basic programming logic. Have you taken any programming classes before?

also have a look at this functionality:

Hey, why are so agressive???, I’m certified Uiard with tens of deployed robots, so kindly some respect

Thanks @rlgandu,

what to set in the condition Field ?

There’s nothing aggressive about suggesting training. Honestly, how are you advanced certified and don’t know how to compare two values?

with this answer you confirm your agressivity

I know how to compare values, and thousand of other activities in UiPath, i had started coding UiPath since 2017. so i’m not waiting for your certefication or approbation.
even if is a simple question, we should respect other developper when they ask for some help.

My question is about: what i will put in the condition:

i tryed: element exist, find element, and now i’m trying get text, i got your point: use if activity (where?: in the condition of the retry?)

I did answer your question.

If NOT typeIntoValue = getTextValue
Then --they don’t match so do something—

If by retry scope you mean you want the type into to repeat if they don’t match, then you put the “NOT typeIntoValue = getTextValue” into a “check true” activity and place that activity in the retry condition. However, a Do While is probably better suited to this than Retry Scope.

That’s what i had forgetten: “Check true”
thanks, and keep calm :slight_smile:

i tested it, did you mean this ?:

i got this error :

Yes that’s what I meant. As for the error, run in Debug mode and tell us which activity threw the error.

Also, I tend to find Do While simpler. You can just put the "strGetTextDem <> “N demande” in the condition, and set a maximum iterations. Then it works just the same as a Retry Scope.

Also, wouldn’t you want to check strGetTextDem against a variable - the one used in your Type Into?
