Tried with :
1.Typeinto followed by sendHotkeys.
2.Select activity not working - shows off an error form UiPath.
3. click with dynamic selection of path - when i try with a value located from tool(aaname = ‘Raymond Man’) - i am able to select the option- but when i use like ( aaname = ’ " +row(“RelatedAuthors”).ToString+ " ’ ). i used Writeline activity to ensure value is taking from excel which is fine.

Can someone help me to sort out this issue ?

Please paste the following string in the target for the click activity -

<html title='Create Articles' /><webctrl tag='LI' aaname='" + row(“RelatedAuthors”).ToString + "' />

Copy exactly the same.
Make sure the string will be in a single line.

Hey @karthikeyuan_subrama

Select Item Activity will not work on this Type of Uielement.
You can use Click Activity with Simulate property Check to select an item from dropdown list.

@wija
Can you please share me the video.?
you can use “https://www.useloom.com/” to record video and share just the URL.

15

if we replace &quote; with " wouldn’t we need one more " to close it?

Just a doubt.

16

we need to close it ’ " +row(“RelatedAuthors”).ToString +" ’

17

sorry i a bit busy, but the trick is using click image → indicate to the label first → then indicate to the combo box → click ocr

Finally it worked. Thanks @aksh1yadav & @KarthikByggari
I have added a delay to Click and made “Simulate type” Uncheck.

Solution :
< html title=‘Create Articles’ />
< webctrl tag=‘LI’ aaname=‘“+row(“RelatedAuthors”).ToString+”’ />
