I am not able to download the excel from a web application with dynamic name. It is taking the by default name and path

I want to download one excel from a web application. In the save as dialogue box, I am passing the entire path with name of the file in the Filename text box of save as dialogue box. Even though bot is typing the same in textbox, when bot clicks save button, it is taking the default name and path. Attaching the screenshot of properties I used in Type Into Activity.

Hello @reshma.mohan ,

can you try by enabling Deselect at end and send windows message ?

I think simulate will replace the default text but it will be highlighted with blue(Selected). So better to use deselect at end and send windows message works better with desktop apps.

Hey @reshma.mohan In the Type Into properties, try switching the Input Method to SendWindowMessages instead of SimulateType. After typing the file path in the Type Into activity, try adding a small delay using the Delay activity to give the system time to process the input before clicking the “Save” button.

cheers

@reshma.mohan,

Enable Hardware Events input method for Type into of typing file path. This should work.

@Darshan_Sable Thanks for the solution. I have unchecked simulated type and instead used send window messages and it is working fine now.

@singh_sumit Thanks for the solution. It helped.
