I have got a selectors problem

Help Studio

Get Text ‘Manchester’: Could not find the user-interface (UI) element for this action.

Possible solutions:
• Ensure application is opened and the UI element is visible on the screen at execution time
• Edit the Target of the UI activity and use Validation to debug the issue.
• If needed, re-indicate the element as its properties might have changed
• Use “Check state” activity to check the application state before executing the action
• Increase the “Delay before” value to allow time to the application to render entirely and become responsive

@singhgauravijan11,

Use Ui Explorer to build a strong and reliable selector.

Hey @singhgauravijan11 make sure to use reliable selector and use open application/browser inside the get text might be the screen is changing or open in the different window so bot is not able to detect.
Note: use check state so it will ensure that target element is available or not.
make reliable selector or use wildcards if needed.

The image shows a screenshot of the properties panel for a "Get Text" activity in UiPath, highlighting an error message about a missing target or input UI element. (Captioned by AI)

As per error looks like the selector is an issue

Try to use ui explorer indicate element use the right top and center top window to identify unique and non varying attributes and use that as strict selector in the activity

Hi @singhgauravijan11

Can you please what your selector looks like?

Also when you open your selector using Ui explorer, do you see additional properties?

Usually, using properties like aaname, innertext or table row, table col for values in a table helps build reliable selector.

But you will need to Ui explorer to see what other properties are available for your element and then choose accordingly.
